funk-rock drumming

a few others

Boz Scaggs Lowdown

Little Feat Rock n Roll Doctor

Van Morrison Domino

The Pretenders Louie Louie

and loverboy! i guess turn me loose is more disco than funk, but in the ballpark.

and the original joe jackson band was hot, david houghton and graham maby. did david houghton do anything else? i can't find any sign of him post-jackson.

Sir Douglas Quintet Nuevo Laredo

Eric Burdon and War Spill the Wine

^^^^hell yeah.

train in vain

those mother's finest clips are great. i just went and bought 2 albums.

ditto babe ruth, but i can only buy so many albums a night.

stan lynch is an understated guy

breakdown
here comes my girl
you got lucky

oops messed up the here comes my girl link

and the original joe jackson band was hot OTM

more from the mid 70s -- got the makings of a great K-Tel record

Climax Blues Band Couldn't Get It Right

Head East Never Been Any Reason

Golden Earing Radar Love

yeah, head east especially.

meanwhile i can't decide how the neu/motorik thing fits in. it's sort of funky and anti-funky at the same time. the flatness works against funkiness, but it has an elliptical thing going on -- the measures are sort of elongated and loping. not actually funky i guess, but i like that drumming too. probably deserves its own thread.

my high school marching band played 25 or 6 to 4. i guess lots of marching bands do.

tony williams = genius

Living Colour "Cult of Personality," drummer Will Calhoun (1988) -- "Type" would almost also work but was way too corny for me to link to

"type" is great. "we are the children of concrete and steel/this is the place where the truth is concealed" -- epic.

"stereotype" / "blood type" / "are you my type?" ugh so unfortunate. but yeah calhoun, what a drummer

did someone already post this? god they were friggin' killer live:

My favorite STP. short and sweet and to the point. I dedicate this to all the ladies out there.

got those mother's finest albums, they're great! can't believe i never heard them. were they more popular in the south? they were never on yankee-rock radio that i remember. (maybe consigned to the funk stations?) the long vamp on "give you all the love" sounds a lot like "darling nikki."

speaking of which i guess darling nikki should be on this thread.

"Brownsville Station

http://youtube.com/watch?v=SxBbmoUdEac";

As great as Brownsville Station were, I don't hear a funk element in these two songs.

they call me HOT N NASTY

As great as Brownsville Station were, I don't hear a funk element in these two songs.

I agree with you re "Smokin In the Boys Room"; respectfully disagree re "Barefootin," which sounds plenty funky, I'd say.
