I Forgot the... [SIZE=7]Sugarman 3[/SIZE] |
Furthermore; as I seem to keep forgetting what more I want to say....
Any song/album from the Arista Era of The Grateful Dead has a great funk twist and a very respectable sound that any funk lover can enjoy |
[B] jaco pastorius
a wise word would be to get his self titled album or punk jazz his double disc cd. Unfortunately he was killed outside a club in the late eighties by a bouncer who knocked **** out of him but anyway check out others by the weather report he was in that aswell |
GALACTIC!!! - funk
album: crazyhorse mongoose and Medeski, Martin, & Wood (MMW) - jazz/funk |
Can anyone with soulseek and lots of Jazz give me their names and some albums to download? I'm a big ska fan so I love the sound of brass, and I just listened to all the samples on Miles Davis' Kind of Blue and they're great. Anything similar to him and just good beginning jazz recommendations would be awesome.
Hmmm nevermind I just read introduction to jazz, but still if anyone has soulseek please tell me your name |
Can anyone recommend me some good funk tunes to learn on guitar. I've nailed Azwethinkweiz, Deep Inside and Hilikus by Incubus. Sink beneath the line is hard, can anyone recommend anything similar? By the way, does anyone know where influences for songs like Azwethinkweiz came from?

Favorite funk band
My favorite funk band is actually a local group from where I go to college. They're called the Organ Donors. They're a keyboard (hence "Organ Donors") dominated group that combines slappin' bass, funky drum grooves, screamin' electric guitar, and turntables with the keyboards.

my favorites
i thought i'd post some lesser known (but amazing!!) albums here
fly - fly a sick chordless jazz trio...mark turner on alto, larry grenadier on bass, and jeff ballard on drums. this is really exploratory jazz, sometimes with a funky/worldbeat feel. "fly mr. freakjar" is goood. scott amendola band - cry this is one of my favorite albums, full of jazz, folk, avante-garde, african, fusion, funk, influences. scott is also one of my favorite drummers-he's played with charlie hunter along with countless others. check out the track "a cry for john brown" or, the very relevant bob dylan cover, "masters of war." BUY THIS ALBUM!!! john coltrane - crescent i only recently got this album, and it's already one of my favorite coltrane recordings. it was recorded the same year as a love supreme, but it's so different in character. just as spiritual, crescent is more somber and introspective in nature. the record is amazing played all the way through. paul motian trio - trioism paul motian-drums, joe lovano-tenor, bill frisell-guitar. the interplay between musicians is outrageous. "it should've happened a long time ago" is such a druggy song, with a beautiful melody. t. j. kirk - if four was one this uber funky band only covers thelonious monk, james brown, and roland kirk tunes...hence their name. scott amendola (above) is on this album, and lays down incredibly funky grooves, along with charlie hunter, who plays an 8 string guitar (he plays guitar and bass lines at the same time, there is no other bass player in the band). the other two guitarists, john schott and will bernard are also amazing. good stuff! other albums i really like: cuong vu - bound (trumpeter played with pat metheny-completely unique sound) tin hat trio - rodeo eroded (chamber/jazz/folk/avante trio...willie nelson's on one track!) will bernard - motherbug (so funky!) nels cline singers - instumentals (nels cline is a guitar god! this album is so ridiculous) medeski martin and wood - anything (i love these guys) most of these albums can be previewed at the itunes music store, so you can hear clips of them for free...some of them are also on emusic.com....check them out peace! |
Duke elington's the man!

I figure, maybe I'll put some Contemp. Jazz up here. Anyone aver hear of Gordon Goodwin?
Check out Gordon Goodwin's Big Phat Band Songs to check out: Hunting Wabbits (experimental) The Jazz Police (Jazz Rock) Swingin' for the Fences (Swing) Sing Sang Sung (swing) Samba Del Gringo (samba) Mueva Los Huesos (Latin Jazz) Horn of Puente (Latin Jazz) Albums: Swingin' for the Fences XXL This is a great band to listen to for melodic genius, both in the written parts, and the solo-ing as well. Have Fun. JOM |
Does anyone know the name of the Kill Bill theme song? Who´s playing it?

Have Fun. JOM[/QUOTE] I have to agree, The BPB plays some of the hardest charts, and I would know, i've played 5 of the songs mentioned above on lead trumpet and they are hard. Also, for those of you looking for a jazzier type of funk, look to Tower of Power. I recommend getting: Oakland Stroke Soul with a Capital "S" They are a very talented band and have an amazing horn section. |
If you like funky electric jazz and have the time please check out my band...

James brown is so talented he totally changed music!!! Also Ray Charles is most cetainly the genius, ny12 seen that nu film about his life?
|
my influences in funk and jazz go a long way. mainly in funk i stick to the older stuff like the red hot chili peppers who are rock/funk, bootsy collins the god of space bass, parliment funkadelic with george cliton, earth wind and fire, tower of power, defunkt... in jazz i listen to jaco pastorius from weather report and word of mouth, stanley clark, micheal manring... there are many great bass players you just have to find them

does anyone know the name of that hip hop - funk band.. i forget the name.. its something like AK 49 ?
anyone know??? |
I've really gotten into funk lately, and I was hoping to list some artists but everyone beat me to them. My radio station on launch has shown me some cool funk artists, and I think because I gain nothing for it it'll be cool to put the address on here.
[url]http://launch.yahoo.com/lc/?rt=0&rp1=0&rp2=1568046890[/url] My station has other music I like on it, but there is one mood which is Funk and old motown stuff only. |
