Default soul
I'm fairly new to classic soul music and am looking to put a mix together
Of songs similar to At Last by Etta James. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Can anyone suggest some really funky stuff that is a little bit more undergound? Maybe with good breaks? Anything is appreciated.

Just saw Maceo Parker a couple months ago. His band is ridiculous. They were so tight and profuse at the same time, I didn't even want to laugh or clap or whistle, or I might miss something, so I stood there in mid-laugh with my mouth open like and idiot.

Marcus Shadd was the drummer. Damn. Makes me want to quit. Maceo's true nepwhew.

I recommend this show to anyone, and I'm pretty sure they are in Italy or somewhere in Eureope right now.

I've seen P-Funk/ George Clinton twice. They become kind of fuzzy/ indistinct after a while, and repetitive. Maceo Parker's show remains clean, distinct, fresh, and classy- even on the same songs.

I think my favourite Parliament would have to be Chocolate City.

I think i'd like to expand my musical interest into the world of soul/funk.
Any recommendations for funk beginner ears?
I want to get my groove on.

Your post is a couple of months old, but just in case your still around the boards. If you want pacifically good funk, I would suggest the 70s.

Earth, Wind, & Fire
Commodores
Ohio Players
Average White Band (AWB)
Sly & The Family Stone
The Isley Brothers
The Brothers Johnson
Rick James
James Brown
Parliament/Funkadelic
