www.dustygroove.com for all your funk needs.

there some great compilations to seek...The Pulp Fusion are really strong, as are the Keb Darge and Funk Spectrums ones. highly recommended.

Stanton Moore is great!

Narlus, checkout:
Calypso King and the Soul Investigators
Liquid Soul
The Mighty Imperials
and I have an old Meters Live recording that pretty kickin'.

the meters are fantastic. their drummer is insanely good, and has a cool name to boot. Zigaboo Modeliste. can't touch that.

other good to great funk records:

herbie hancock - mwandishi recordings
afro lafayette rock band - darkest light
any number of Bar-Kays releases
black merda - folks from mother's mixer

there's an insanely good comp _ Chains and Black Exhaust_ which was in print for about 16 minutes a few years ago.
