for funk you have to go back to the 70s. I would start with these three essentials:
- maggot brain by funkadelic
- mothership connection by parliament
- there’s a riot going on by sly and the family stone
Funk, psych, and soul revival is our daily go to in the last few years. Always nice to bring out some Colemine Records for the walk to the train. Puts some extra bounce in each step.
