Who do you turn to when you have the envies for funk?
FYI, envies, pronounced on-vees, is a cajun term for when you have the need, wants or have to haves for something usually food or music. As I cull and play grade my vinyl collection I am not so very surprised by how much funky music has made its way into my collection and thought it would be interesting to see who others go to for their funk. My go to artist for the most part are War, The Meters, Professor Longhair, Earth Wind and Fire, Sly the Family Stone, J Geils/Peter Wolf, George Clinton, James Brown, and Curtis Mayfield for the most part. Please add yours as I am always looking to get more funk in my life. Thanks for reading. Enjoy the music

I listen to a ton of already listed artists as they are the main staple of funk music, but some others would be The Free Label, Jamiroqiai and Red Hot Chili Peppers. Straight funk is great, but I also like a lot of funk adjacent music. Makes for great segway in and out of genres if you listen to a bunch of different music on a single day and like to go with the flow. |
@davidrolon thanks for the head up on Lettuce, checked them out and looking to get a little bit of Lettuce in my rotation. Enjoy the music |
@nlitworld just love it when my music bumps into other genres, like when Gatemouth Brown bumps into jazz and so on. Enjoy the music |
