| 6 Years of Ars / Funk I like
Joined the same exact day as user Mort. List is funk that I like. I guess rec me other funk you think I may like. | | 1 |  | Sly and The Family Stone
There's A Riot Goin' On
"Family Affair" is the greatest US #1 single of all time. Prove me wrong. | | 2 |  | Parliament
Mothership Connection
Make my funk the P. Funk. | | 3 |  | Funkadelic
Maggot Brain
George Clinton is wonderful. | | 4 |  | Erykah Badu
New Amerykah Pt. 1 (4th World War)
The opener on this album is such P. Funk worship. | | 5 |  | D'Angelo
Black Messiah
Been listening to Brown Sugar a lot lately, but I guess this is even better, so I'm putting this one here. | | 6 |  | Curtis Mayfield
Superfly
I don't know what to say here except that Curtis Mayfield rules. | | 7 |  | Stevie Wonder
Innervisions
I relistened to all of Songs in the Key of Life earlier today and damn does it hold up. Innervisions and Fulfillingness are better though. | | 8 |  | Primus
Sailing the Seas of Cheese
Not really as similar to other artists here, but it IS funk so. Funk... metal. | | 9 |  | The Mothers of Invention
Over-Nite Sensation
Zappa influenced Parliament/Funkadelic and then Parliament/Funkadelic influenced Zappa. Neat when artists inspire each other. Anyway... some of the songs on here are Zappa's take on funk. | | 10 |  | Beck
Midnite Vultures
Beck's take on funk. | | 11 |  | Rage Against The Machine
Evil Empire
Okay, I guess Primus isn't the only "heavy" funky band I like. | | 12 |  | Red Hot Chili Peppers
Blood Sugar Sex Magik
Hey, they're George Clinton approved, so get over it. (Band gets a lot of hate on Sputnik, yet you all like Tool, ugh.) Just gonna name drop Mr. Bungle/Faith No More here since I'm not putting them on the list as their own item. | | 13 |  | Fela Kuti
Zombie
The only afrobeat artist I listen to, but I think that's true for most people who like Fela Kuti. | | 14 |  | Stanley Clarke
School Days
Jazz-funk is cool and so is this release, but I think I like regular funk and funk-rock more honestly. | | 15 |  | Janelle Monae
The ArchAndroid
This album is kinda all over the place, but there are enough funky songs on here for me to include it. | | 16 |  | Mr. Bungle
Mr. Bungle
By the request of SlothcoreSam: Their only album that's mostly funk.
(I guess I lied when I said Bungle wouldn't make the list.)
I hardly listen to these guys anymore actually. Weird, right? | |

08.23.19 | Almost to forgot to post a Sputversary list and with only 45 mins to spare.
I feel like most of the funk I like is entry-level. Rec me deeper cuts of funk, but none of that "funk-lite" disco, please. | TVC15
08.23.19 | Oh shitd, happy Sputversary!
“Band gets a lot of hate on Sputnik, yet you all like Tool, ugh” lol | SlothcoreSam
08.23.19 | Hey you forgot your namebringer. Mr Bungle. | ArsMoriendi
08.23.19 | Added it for you Slothcore | 50iL
08.23.19 | Congrats! 13 fucking rules. | SitarHero
08.23.19 | Can't forget that G-Funk. | Frippertronics
08.23.19 | ""Family Affair" is the greatest US #1 single of all time"
Good Vibrations | Frippertronics
08.23.19 | also listen to Gil Scott Heron, not necessarily funk but essential if you're listening to stuff like Sly and Fela | Sharkattack
08.23.19 | Great fucking list! If you haven’t already listened then check:
The Meters
Betty Davis
Cymande
Bootsy Collins
That Eddie hazel album
Tower of Power
Tim Maia
Bad rabbits
Herbie hancock
| ArsMoriendi
08.23.19 | Ooh Herbie, I already really like the Head Hunters version of Watermelon Man
@Fripp: If I got into Gil I'd probably start with Reflections since I already love "B Movie" | bgillesp
08.23.19 | Happy sputday Ars! | rabidfish
08.23.19 | tower of power owns
check mandrill, too
and war
also, listen to phonk
| Frippertronics
08.23.19 | Personal favorite is Winter in America, but Reflections or Bridges would be good to start with. | SharkTooth
08.23.19 | Good list | bloaf38
12.10.20 | Lethal picks in here. That D'angelo album is wicked good, and props, cuz you don't see it on many lists. | ArsMoriendi
12.10.20 | Yeah I'd add Cymande, Thundercat, William Onyeabor and Betty Davis to this if I made this now |
