You sho got that right man he dose keep it alive which reminded me. Yall know who else got the FUNK these days or at least a dose of it!?! Mark Ronson and that Bruno mars guy with "Up town funk". When I fist watched the music video I said to myself "FunK in the 2010's that's ironic so gotta grab me a sack of chronic" :crazy: Kinda surprised new generation kids even like this song as much as they do. Not that they would even know a damn thing about the FunK from the past. Though as a Funkateer I actually have to say this one track did capture some magic of the FunK from the mid 80's. Thought I find it to be a good jam but a little repetitive. Lastly am I the only one who sees mark ronson and bruno mars as the modern version of Mic Murphy & David Frank (The System)?

wayy off 1977 - 1983 imo, the more electronic stuff from that time has a special place, but if you're really talking the golden age, it has to be the late 1960's to early 1970's. That much more raw instrumental sound is always a winner, especially when lyrics were more politically charged.

I agree, IMO without a doubt very late 60s into the mid 70s. Nothing can beat P-Funk and Sly, War, Mayfield, etc.
