Who got the funk?
    #8525348 -

So I play bass, and I've really been liking real funky walking bass lines recently.  You guys have any good funk band suggestions?  I'm fairly ignorant on the genre.

I wasn't too big of a fan of the Weather Report stuff...was very...elevator music-y.

Victor Wooten is badass, though.  I've picked up a lot of sweet techniques watching his youtube videos.

Check out this sweet little lesson I just found.  The dude has a sweet ass jam.

You need to listen to the album Maggot Brain.  Now.

Also,  Funkentelechy vs. the Placebo Syndrome.

Acid doesn't give you truths; it builds machines that push the envelope of perception. Whatever revelations came to me then have dissolved like skywriting. All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake.

That was a sick jam.  Too bad there was no video.  I love watching eccentric bass players jam out faces.

Old chili peppers (stuff from the 80s) hits the spot sometimes. Maybe try parliament too.

I don't claim to be too good at it yet, but playing funk bass is so much fun.
