The Funkiest Songs Ever!

Postby Whole Lotta Lotta » 30 Aug 2010, 22:58

It is high time I did this. This is the place for the best funk you can find. No crappy songs please! :no-no:
I could not think of a better way to start than with this guy...

I have seen these guys live. You should all be jealous of me.

And a great cover:

You can live here and have a great life and not be the least bit into living the local life. Clowns will try to diss you for it saying you gotta get down with the program, but fuck em, treat this place like a buffet and yous be on a diet. Take what you want and nothing extra, slam those oysters, but leave the bread sticks and dinner rolls behind. - Deuce Dropper

some very attractive violinists on stage with Barry in this one...

Michael Nesmith, pretty groovy fun song-also produced with minimal budget-black plastic, a light, and a fan. :)
