Galliano have moved therer sond around a bit. The era around Twyford down was cool!
Acid jazz used to do compiliation albums, I've ot a few somewhere, a good rane of sounds from funk, UK acid jazz, latin etc, I bought albums by several artists on the strength of what I heard on those CD's
Also try Mr Exe, Count basic, Seven Eleven (with bootsy clone, Dodge), Roy ayres, Groove collective, Quantic soul, there's more, but most seem to appear on compilation albums, if you know where to look, you can find some serious funk. I rely on one of my mates for this particular genre!
Freakpower kind of had that sound around the tune in period, check out the album. Mother Earth, great band, saw them live once, check out the poeple tree!
