Suggestions 4 my Funk compilation,please!!

A few months ago I made my own 2-disc Rock(hard) compilation,now it's time
2 make a Funky-groove compilation.
It will include old school funk/soul like Patrice Rushen
(forget me nots),Donna Summer (Love is in control) and off course Chic!!
(I lately discovered Hanging and I can't believe I didn't
knew this great song,shame on me!!),Tom Brown with Jamaica funk,
EW&F,Lakeside....
I also discoverd a good funk mix including Slave,Lakeside,Cameo,Tom Brown,
Funkadelic)

Also 80's funk s like Cameo,Jesse Johnson,General Kane,Chico DeBarge (Talk to me),Alexander O'Neal,
RFTW,Junior (mama used to say) and so on....(Maybe Prince's Erotic City)
In fact,everything that has a great groove or bass line!!


I also think I will include Tower Of Power with Diggin' on JB
and something from Whodini.

So,if someone knows some great funky songs that I could forget
or
don't know about...feel free 2 give your suggestions!!
And I know there are some real funk-connaisseurs around here wink

Thanx..and great holidays!!

Since when did R&B stand for Rythym & Bass? confused

Specially since you are talking about old-school.

I call it Rythm&Bass because I don't wanna include today's R&B on my cd's.
Well,maybe I should call it Groove&Funk ? wink

Well, who would?

Get some Sly Stone on there, and early 70's Temptations (Psychadelic Shack, U need Love Like I Do) would be good, bit of Marvin (Gotta Give It Up).

have fun.
