I always knew jazz fusion had potential. Snarky Puppy reached that potential

The Sole Funk Brother, Pt. 1

Funk/soul albums that apparently nobody else on Sputnik has heard. Shame on this site.
1Bo Diddley
The Black Gladiator

Bo Diddley goes Hendrix, but in a sinister way
2Black Heat
No Time To Burn

Chilled out, sunny funk with flute and Latin percussion
3Jimmy Scott
The Source

Haunting and ethereal soul/jazz standards from a voice that has to be heard to be believed. FFO Anohni
4The Counts
What’s Up Front That Counts

Muscular but economic Detroit funk. Fortunately, the 2023 remaster expands this release a bit (and doesn’t sound half bad)
5Cane and Able
Cane and Able

Dirrrty psych soul/funk with an afrobeat tinge. Nice!
6Sir Joe Quarterman and Free Soul
Sir Joe Quarterman and Free Soul

A cheery James Brown knockoff that’s performed with enough gusto to excuse the rampant plagiarism
7The Grodeck Whipperjenny
The Grodeck Whipperjenny

White boy psych soul that’s become sample Mecca for hip-hop producers
8Charles Wright and the Watts 103rd Street Rhythm Band
Express Yourself

Tasteful distillation of early funk’s best qualities wrapped in a soul package, backed by a no-nonsense, raw groovin’ band
9Lafayette Afro Rock Band
Malik

Jammier jazz-funk release tinged with Afrobeat that retains enough grit to justify inclusion here
10The Staple Singers
City in the Sky

Groove-laden gospel soul built around small ensemble vocal harmony
