3 GEMS OF THE MOMENT FOR OLD SCHOOL FUNK AFICIONADOS

Color Blind - Maze
Shake It Well - Dramatics
Love U - Brass Construction

Who is hip to these? Are they hot or what? How about adding some jams of your own that some orgers might not be familiar with because they didn't cross over, were maybe just album tracks or relatively obscure? There is such a wealth of outstanding funk out there if you know where to look. I am hoping this thread can help refresh the fond memories of those true funkateers and open up newer and more casual listeners' minds, souls and booties. Let's try to limit it to three selections at a time. I will add more later.

Do you feel me?

Peace,
Scott
