In Funk We Trust

[djsoulful]

Respect to the Funk artists that made my life much more beautiful.
What i like about Funk is that all different genre of music come together as one.
I can hear Blues, Gospel, Jazz, Rock and Rythm & Soul.















The Funk family is a big one, and without mentioning the following acts it wouldn't be complete. Curtis Mayfield, James Brown, Joe Tex, Earth, Wind & Fire [[early stuff), Mandrill, Jimi Hendrix, Larry Graham & GCS, The Isley Brothers[[70th stuff), Commodores, Slave, Cameo. I think i better stop, so you can add some Funk to this.

One of my first experiences with the Funk, on Motown no less. dont let the funk from the feet of Nicholas brothers detract from the Funk of The Funks.....oh yes !

[GeeTee(HPK)]

You can't go wrong with the Nicholas brothers. [[one of my all time favorite clips ! )

RIP Mr Wilson

Now that I know how to post videos, here's The Temptations live version of Shakey Ground. It's even better than the studio version, in my opinion.
