Haven't posted here in a little while though try and drop in when I'm in need of a "funk fix".
Well done to bubinga5 for (at times almost single-handedly) keeping this thread going! ;)

Here's a late-night groove from Donald Fagen...

This is a monster groove played by a great groove player called Gary Foote I think. I believe the great Jonathan Maron also played on the CD.

Kudos to Bubinga for reminding me about this one.

[quote name='jackduran' timestamp='1325540493' post='1484258'] There's any number I could have picked, but plumped for this seeing as it kicks off with the bass. Great playing/tone. Allen McGrier, I believe? http://youtu.be/FEFw_EnCuNE [/quote]

So good! There's too much good funk in this thread - I'm getting a funk overdose!

Bubinga, cheers for posting all that Pleasure stuff. I can't believe I hadn't really heard them until a few days ago (although I'd heard of Nate Philips). Future Now is a revelation. More for the transcription list!!

Now [b]THAT[/b] is a great groove :)

+1, great tone on that vid.

Here's Queen Latifah's wonderful cover of my favourite Dr. Buzzard's Original Savannah Band track, 'Hard Times' (one of my all-time favourite songs). It qualifies for this thread as it's a bit more groove-driven for this thread (though I might give in and post the original at some point!):
