Lord Sausage Posted September 17, 2012 Share Posted September 17, 2012 Now this ain't Funk but it's certainly groove. A big filthy blues rock groove. With one of the filthiest slide gtr noises ever.

RoRi Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Paul Jackson "Hawk" From the album 'Funk on a stick' (2005). My favorite album of that year. IMO the whole album is brilliant.

Roland Rock Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 (edited) Wow, just goes to show different people's definitions. I deliberately chose this after GnR to redress the balance as, to me, that song is the very essence of funk! Less so 'groove'. Perhaps there should be a 'Funk and/or Groove' thread :-) Edited September 19, 2012 by Roland Rock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huge Hands Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 (edited) I like the slower groove stuff. This one proves it doesn't have to be about the bassline which is dead simple. I love the staccato brass and everything!

Lord Sausage Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 How about a nice shifting Polyrhythm groove? 7/16 over 2/4. Again not funk but definitely a groove. Just the intro......... it goes mental after that! http://youtu.be/J_jMMF6AP28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
