KEEPING FUNK ALIVE I'm trying to find out about new funk bands, can anyone give me their faves besides the obvious ones?
The ones that i can't stop listening to are; 1. 'The terra p-funk from beyond space' by gotcha 2. 'Fast food funkateers' by Slapbak 3. 'Nutmeg sez bozo the town' by Weapon of choice Trust me you'll need two copies of each because you will wear them out! | |

If anyone caught Jay Leno last night, they would've been dazzled by this cooler than cool group that's been under the radar of late: Robert Randolph & the Family Band.
They cook up a nice stew of Funk, Soul, Rock, Blues, Gospel, and whatever else they can do to create the new dance of the millenium. They're also a great live act even if you've only caught them on T.V. Also, lead singer Randolph might be considered the Jimi Hendrix of slide guitar. He tears it up on that thing. Fucking amazing! Check these guys out. Their latest album is called "Unclassified". NEW WAVE FOREVER: SLAVE TO THE WAVE FROM THE CRADLE TO THE GRAVE. | |

Oh, also, before I forget, there's this awesome spanish rock/funk/dance band from Venezuela called Los Amigos Invisibles. I saw them live twice and they are guaranteed to get the asses shakin'!!!  They're on my other idol, David Byrne's world music label, Luaka Bop. Check 'em out.NEW WAVE FOREVER: SLAVE TO THE WAVE FROM THE CRADLE TO THE GRAVE. | |

The best band 2 come out so far this century is a band named Project X.
Rock, metal,Hip-Hop and Funk genuinely awesome. Luminous beings are we...not this crude matter.
Is this 2morrow or just the END of time? The Funk will always b with u "I've got a face, not just my race, Bang Bang I've got you babe!" | |

Jamiroquai??  but I'm not going to open up a new can of worms here.
Oh yeah, forget about the Chili Peppers too. They ain't got the funk anymore. They're on some coporate Pop/Rock shit now. Damn shame too.  NEW WAVE FOREVER: SLAVE TO THE WAVE FROM THE CRADLE TO THE GRAVE. | |
