That's not funk, it's acid jazz!

Brilliant stuff. Must be great to be in a room and bash that out. Which one are you Buzz?

I wish! Their style shifts from funk to jazz to classic soul, all incredibly tight and loud. I was at their gig in The Old Bridge Inn at Aviemore on Friday. The place rocked: jam-packed-in with hot, sweaty, writhing bodies making sexy moves to heavy beats for 2 hours. Ace!

Surely not that funky though? Funk to me is much more like this.

Jools, no. 2, yes. No. 1 also too jazz to be true funk. Cougar, definitely funk rock! ๐Ÿ˜‰

I see one of our customers has depped for them on bass though their regular bassist is yet to be converted... ๐Ÿ™‚

The only live Funk i've seen in the last few years was an American band called 'Breakestra' Crap name, good band. Funnily enough the gig was at South Hill Park, Bracknell, a few metres from Swinley Forest.

Band in the OP - guitar is quite cheesy but I'd have a dance to that.

This guy has got some great funky mixes:

This track may have the greatest funky horns ever:

Great compilation album for some real funk (that stuff the op posted (as Nick said) is a bit grim, probably have to see it live)

Funkology features such joys as this utter utter classic
