OK I'll admit, I'm too lazy to look through all the pages of this thread to check. :twisted:

Anyone mention those 'me too' kind of funk tunes bands would put out just to get something on the charts?

Queen - Another One Bites The Dust
Stones - Miss You
Kiss - I Was Made For Loving You
Zeppelin - The Crunge
etc. etc.

I can't remember when it was that I first heard funk but I do know that I was immediately hooked-maybe it was James Brown and most likely it was and of course Joe Tex-I have always put him on a pedestal because he was funk personified with songs like "Hot Legs"(I Gotcha),that has to be one of the funkiest songs ever.When Parliament,Tower Of Power and other bands of that genre came along it was certainly the kick in the arse that the music industry needed to get out of the Doldrums it had been stuck in.In the late 70s and early 80s there were some great funk groups that played on the thriving nightclub circuit here.Bands like The Crack of Dawn,The Glenn Ricketts Show,Rheingold,James Knight and the Fabulous Butlers plus many others that have slipped my mind for the moment.Those bands really filled the nightclubs because their up-tempo beats and deadly horn sections could bring a corpse to its feet.It's too bad that there hasn't been a Funk Renaissance to shake up the music industry again because the cookie-cutter sameness of the generic audio swill that's being passed off as music these days has all the musical merit of a clothes washer filled with old work boots.
