Looking for MF Doom type Soul

hi me again.

also currently looking for mid to late 80s r'n'b and soul that's so unfunky it's funky.

these are almost easier to find since they're all dollar records and i could conceivably just go grab a ton of shitty looking records and come home with some winners.

some great things i've found so far:
Don Blackman
Quincy Jones
The Deele
New Edition
Hi Five
Gap Band
Tevin Campbell
SOS Band
Marvin Gaye's "Midnight Love"
Al Jarreau
Norman Connors
Rose Royce

I would disagree with those being "unfunky," but I think I know what you mean.

If you're going to do Al Jarreau, don't miss Grover Washington Jr. The Winelight album came up on another thread a couple months ago, and it's been in my playlist ever since.

five years pass...

mf doom sampled a bunch of pornos and shit, so check out the music in this 'eroticise' clip. starts with all saxophones and strings, but then at 2:28 it zooms into some panthyose and goes all funky, especially at 3:28 it goes electronic. nsfw, obviously. and nobody will believe me, but I swear I happened upon this in fairly innocuous circumstances.

electrosoul vs. DOOMsoul

Jimmy McGriff is a pretty good example of what JaXoN was posting about half a decade ago I think (?????)
