recommend me some jazz/funk

[crag42]

After having recently got into rock candy funk party I'm itching to discover some new music of the same vibe. ..

Anyone got any suggestions. .. Old/new.. whatever

Cheers

I wouldn't say that RCFP are Jazz/Funk more like just doing what Steve Morse and loads more were doing 30+ years ago.

Jazz/Funk is a different thing altogether.

IMO the early "Crusaders" albums are great !!

Here's a taster :

And what a fine album that track is from.
Here's another one to go with it.
The great 'Pops' Popwell doing a very nice solo in the middle.

Funk it is then but that's a million miles away from Rock Candy Funk Party who don't seem to have a funky bone in sight to me.

I class them as a bit funky.... It's hard to categorise them I suppose. .. What I suppose I actually meant was can you recommend me more music in the style of Rock candy funk party

Yes they are slightly funky but definitely not a Funk band.

Funky and Funk are two different things.

Don't worry though as they couldn't seem to work that out in the BBC documentary about Funk that was on a couple of weeks ago either.

You're so right about there being more than three of them.

This is as funky as a funky thing on funkday.

It might be worth reading post #14 before everyone just lists their Funk favourites.

Perhaps the OP should change the title of the thread to 'Recommend me some stuff in the style of Rock Candy Funk Party' if it has to be as narrow as that.

This is Jazz/funk:

Herbie Hancock Headhunters 1974: http://youtu.be/GAlejqkd-gg

Paul Jackson on bass. Groove personified.

Nah, don't do that.
I am sure the OP might appreciate (along with other Basschatters)
a wide selection and differing opinions of what Jazz/Funk is, sounds like.
Music ain't it? On a Musicians site.
Otherwise I wouldn't have got to hear that Fred Wesley track you posted.
