The Story of Funk

Catch up if you can, this concise, entertaining history of funk which was shown on BBC4 the other day. Included contributions from Larry Graham, Sheila E,George Clinton, EW&F, AWB, and the devil himself; Alan Leeds. Near thr end pf the programme, there's a couple of minutes on Prince too (they play FunknRoll).

First read.

E.g. the book entitled FUNK 'The MUSIC, the PEOPLE, and the RHYTHM of THE ONE' by mister Rickey Vincent. The ISBN is: 0-312-13499-1.
