Live infectious funk jams....quality recordings

speaking of the god father...my favorite album of his is Funk Power 1970: Brand New Thang...longer jams, funky as hell, with none other than Bootsy Collin laying down th bass grooves.

How about shotgun?80s funk band kicked some serious butt.(imho) so many more.The meters is a good suggestion!

Got some quality jams ... Karl Denson was mentioned, solo, w/GreyBoy, and also KD's Tiny Universe. Lettuce, Eric Krasno from Soulive is a member. Anything from Galactic, even the new one! Skerik. Robert Walter solo (B3 kybd, is also in GreyBoy). Perpetual Groove. I'll come up with some more. I left the iPod at home today.

Got more funk jams .. Bernie Worrell (B3 from PFunk), Critters Buggin (more Skerik), Garaj Mahal, Jimmy McGriff,
John Popper Project, John Scofield, Karl Denson Trio, The Roots, Taj Mahal, Weather Report ... need anything else to get your groove going? All VG recording quality, and have the funk. Anything from the studio catalog is cool. Redbook CD's. You can get them used too and save a few bucks. Phish? Nawwww.

Try Steve Ferrone "More Head" and Tower of Power "Soul Vaccination" => two great sounding live albums and very funky. Ferrone really has the Groove and David Garibaldi needs no introduction.

Also try Black Eyed Peas "Vegas to Sydney" DVD - (perhaps there is a live CD I don't know) - the Sydney sessions are exceedingly well recorded and produced by Tal Herzberg...+ their touring drummer is Keith Harris....and he also has the GROOVE ....big time!
