On a site like KVR, we should source more SYNTH funk

What about Jazz-Funk? - "The cerebral musicality of jazz mixed with the visceral groove of funk"

Slightly on your tail but with a twist, yesterday I found this one, and oh yeah.

I still really dig 'Tribes, Vibes & Scribes' and some of the Acid Jazz of that era

I won't derail the thread too much, but just wanted to post one of my favourite tracks off that album, which contains what I believe to be one of the most sublime drum performances/sounds ever committed to tape. Great bass solo, also

^ Love it.

Whats with the 2 drummers in the first video ?
I didn't know the JB's were known for that.

I was wondering that myself.

Now here's one you wouldn't think - but damn, those rednecks were FUNKY. The Mussel Shoals Swampers... here with Wilson Pickett:


Now some Etta James - backed by the Swampers

[SODDI]

They were so funky they were occasionally all over the place.

[Aloysius]

Bought this record as a kid. Couldn't help laughing at it. Play that f*ckin' music.

Probably not the best listen for quick gratification, as it's a whole gig and there's talking to the crowd before most of the songs.
But... heeeey.

Medeski, Martin & Wood - Uninvisible.

Can I say 'phat'? It's Phat Funk this time.

A Funk thread without The Meters will flunk.

So:

The Meters - Funky Miracle
