Hey guys, I need some fresh music. I recently fell in love with Funkadelic, especially their first 3 records and I'm in need of something similar. Something that has those strong, echoey beats, that loud squelching guitar and the psychedelic nastiness that they're famous for. Some of my favourite tracks include "I Wanna know if it's good to you"( Fuzzy rocks the vocals and Bernie kills keys), "Super Stupid", "Good Ole Music","I'll Bet You", "Wars of Armageddon"(one if Tiki's greatest works, imo) and "Friday Night August the 14th".

The closest I've gotten to finding a match to this sound is with Hendrix's albums "Are you Experienced" and "Band of Gypseys", and The isley's "Go for your Guns". One other album I took to is the 1977 self-titled album "Shotgun", BUT sadly I haven't been able to find a download for it. Recommendations don't have to be limited to funk bands, just something that has the heat and the heaviness that those Funkadelic records have.
