• P-Funk.
• Since then, George and his associates (known collectively as "the Funk Mob") have largely gone their separate ways, creating some more great records and a lot of mediocre ones. ...
• George Clinton and miscellaneous P-Funk.
• There's an amazing P-Funk web site, which includes reviews of Parliament & Funkadelic albums.
• The P-Funk fan publication New Funk Times also has a web site which is still under construction but already includes fun stuff like cartoons, album and show reviews, and interviews with George.
• Generally, Parliament released the most accessible music, mostly limited to funk and soul, usually with horns and almost no heavy guitar or guitar solos. ... The Horny Horns played mostly instrumental funk.
• So I'll just list the first-string Funk Mob members and leave it at that:.
• In case you don't feel like sorting through all the reviews, here's my recommended "Instant P-Funk Collection":.

• FUNK.
• Q From Tim McGowan, Minneapolis, USA: “Why does the word funk have so many different meanings? Are they at all related in some distant past, or have they just grown up spontaneously and independently? I first learned of funk when I was growing up (I was born in America in ’63), and then it was funky, meaning cool or groovy (I thought). Then I learned funk was a style of music, and only a few years ago I learned (from Julia Louis-Dreyfus on TV’s Seinfeld) that it can also mean smelly. It didn’t help to look it up in the dictionary; there I learned that funk can be a state of abject terror. ...
• Let’s start with “smell”, which is the oldest sense of funk, dating from the early seventeenth century. ...
• ) Whatever its source, that sense stands alone and isn’t connected with any of the others, though blue funk is directly linked. (In Britain a blue funk is a state of panic or great fear, while in the US it refers more to a state of dejection or depression. ...
• However, the modern sense of a musical genre and the Black English term funky for something excellent both derive from the surviving American sense of funk for a bad smell. ...
• The noun funk in this sense is a back formation from funky.

• Casa Del Funk have been funking the house since 1999, mixing old-fashioned seventies funk with latin rhythms to create a delectable groove.
• Following last year's Spring Ball at Churchill, readers of Varsity were informed that "at midnight, Casa del Funk took over and proved worthy of their reputation as a high quality disco-funk band - the dance floor was packed,everyone was loving it" Varsity (22/02/02).
• Previously Varsity reporters enjoyed "the excellent Casa Del Funk" at St. ...

• Axiom Funk, Funkonomicron- Britain Woodman.
• Avant-garde rocker Bill Laswell's Axiom label, distributed by Polygram, was founded to distribute world-music, ambient, and other experimental music produced by Laswell and partners like Nicky Skopelitis (his bandmate in the Golden Palominos), Bootsy Collins and Bernie Worrell (P-Funk alumni), Liu Sola (Chinese folk/blues singer), and "world music" experimentalists like The Master Musicians of Jajouka. ...
• " This is, unfortunately, the only Sly Stone material on the set -- it's a great song, but it may not justify the $25-30 purchase price if you don't like the controversial Laswell's ways with ambient, dub, or P-funk style. ...
• "Animal Behavior" is a rerun from Praxis' major-label sojourn (the funk-metal ensemble has recorded two other albums for Laswell's indie label Subharmonic) spotlighting Bootsy's "ain't nothin' but a pah-ty, baby" persona. ...
• Overall, I'd recommend looking for this set on sale, if you're interested in what Bootsy and Bernie have been doing between P-Funk All-Stars tours, or are curious about Bill Laswell's funk experiments but were afraid Axiom was too "spacey. ...

• Last year, When I first heard that Mark Farner, Don Brewer and Mel Schacher -- collectively known in the 1970's as Grand Funk Railroad -- were going to reunite, I about lost my mind. For as much as I love so many other groups, it was Grand Funk -- even more than Sabbath and Zeppelin -- that transported my tastes from the teeny-bopper and sugar-coated gluttony of top forty to the white-knuckled and in-your-face excitement of underground "hard rock. ...
• I can't emphasize the importance of a band like Grand Funk enough. While Zeppelin, Sabbath and Deep Purple were busy churning out some great records during that same period of the late 60's and early 70's, Grand Funk was still the biggest and baddest band at the time. ...
• But just as things were getting interesting, and I was just about old enough to start attending concerts, Grand Funk broke ranks. ...
• On May 2, I had the opportunity to see the original members of Grand Funk Railroad perform at the Greek Theater in Los Angeles. ...
• Which left one question: without all the support and hoopla, could Grand Funk -- the "original" three members -- still pull it off? Was it enough to even appease Homer Simpson who may have sounded the call when he went on a rave about GFR during a Simpsons' episode. ...
• First of all, after laying out $40 to see the Funk at the Greek, I couldn't believe these guys were even playing the fair. ... Joe Walsh played the week before Funk. ...
• " Not one for covers of songs already firmly established by their originators, I was still impressed with how Grand Funk managed to make the Stones classic their own. ...

• ELECTRO-FUNK - WHAT DID IT ALL MEAN?.
• Electro-Funk is undoubtedly the most misunderstood of all UK Dance genres, yet probably the most vital with regards to its overall influence. ... Just as Northern Soul was a British term for a style (or group of styles) of American black music, so was Electro-Funk, and, like Northern, the roots of the scene are planted firmly in the North-West of England. ...
• Perhaps the main reason that Electro-Funk remains a mystery to so many people is because it’s audience was predominantly black at a time when cutting-edge black music (and black culture in general) was very much marginalized in the UK, and as a result essentially underground. ...
• In the UK scheme of things Electro-Funk eventually took over from Jazz-Funk as the dominant force on the club scene, but not without major controversy and upheaval. ... However, as time went on and audience tastes began to change, even the most hostile DJ’s were forced to play at least some Electro-Funk.
• The Soul Mafia, with big names like Chris Hill, Robbie Vincent, Froggy, Jeff Young and Pete Tong, continued to concentrate on Jazz-Funk and Soul grooves (later referred to as ‘80’s Groove’). ...
• It wasn’t one narrow style that never strayed from within the confides of an even narrower BPM range, Electro-Funk was anything goes! The diversity of records released during this period was what made it so magical, you never knew what was coming next. ... Major artists like Miles Davis, Sly Stone, Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder, legendary producer Norman Whitfield and, of course, George Clinton and his P Funk brigade, would all play their part in shaping this new sound via their innovative use of electronic instruments during the 70’s (and as early as the late 60’s in Miles Davis’s case). Once the next generation of black musicians finally got their hands on the available technology it was bound to lead to a musical revolution as they ripped up the rule book with their twisted Funk.
• D Train’s ‘You’re The One For Me’ (Prelude), which was massive during late 81, would set the tone, paving the way for ‘Time’ by Stone (West End), ‘Feels Good’ by Electra (Emergency) and two significant Eric Matthew / Darryl Payne productions, Sinnamon’s ‘Thanks To You’ (Becket) and, once again courtesy of Prelude, ‘On A Journey (I Sing The Funk Electric)’ by Electrik Funk (the term Electro-Funk originally deriving from this track, ‘electric-funk’ being amended to Electro-Funk following the arrival of Shock’s ‘Electrophonic Phunk’ on the Californian Fantasy label in June).
• An extreme chunk of vinyl moulded by Paradise Garage DJ Larry Levan, ‘Don’t Make Me Wait’ would quickly become a cult-classic, and eventually even manage to scrape into the top 50 of the British Pop chart, purely on the back of underground support (as would a number of subsequent Electro-Funk releases). ...
• Having already become an established name on the Jazz-Funk scene I was seen as a heretic for playing these ‘soulless’ records, especially those that were regarded as the more ‘blatant’ ones (for example, the dreaded ‘Planet Rock’ and the rest of the Tommy Boys stuff, Warp 9 ‘Nunk’ (Prism), Extra T’s ‘ET Boogie’ (Sunnyview), Man Parrish ‘Hip Hop, Be Bop (Don’t Stop)’ (Importe/12), and Italian Zanza 12”, ‘Dirty Talk’ by Klien & MBO). I generally opted for the Dub or instrumental versions, mixing them in alongside the more orthodox Funk, Soul and Jazz-Funk releases of the time at my weekly residencies, Legend in Manchester and Wigan Pier, where the scene first took root. ...
• Electro-Funk’s legacy is huge. ...
• Electro-Funk was the channel that finally brought the Hip-Hop movement, and all its various creative components, firmly into the UK mainstream, helping to spread its message throughout Europe and beyond. To all intents and purposes Electro-Funk pre-dates Hip-Hop in a British context, the term not coming into common use here until much later. ...

• Nothin' like some good old fashioned funk to make you feel like movin' your feet. Dancing is probably the most fun way to get exercise, and funk is designed to make you.
• Funk is like a mixture of soul, rhythm & blues, and jazz. ... Top it off with a powerful vocalist that can shake you out of your shoes and you've described the artists that brought funk to the world in the late 60's and 70's. In the late 70's and early 80's, funk made it possible to dance without having to deal with the dreaded "disco" phase. Through that phase and many more, funk remains a staple in a well balanced musical diet. Gotta have that funk.
• The Godfather of Soul is probably one of the first artists to do serious funk. ...
• In the late 60's, Sly and the Family Stone created their own brand of funk. Playing concerts with the top rock groups at the time gave them access to the "hippie" crowd, and brought funk into the mainstream. ...
• They began creating a style of funk that was outrageous and wild. ... Parliament, P-Funk, The Brides of Funkenstein, Parlet, and other names have been used by the band. ...
• The P-Funk main page gives you lots of P-Funk .
• My all-time favorite is the first lady of funk, Chaka Khan. ... Their albums contain some of the best funk to be found. ...
• Stevie Wonder delved into funk during the 70's, although a lot of people associate him with the Motown sound of the 60's or his more pop hits from the 80's. ... He also co-authored some songs with Third World, a Reggae/funk band from Jamaica. ...
