Summary
  • "Get down with the music that mixes R&B and soul with a little rock'n'roll. Packed with anecdotal bios, reviews, ratings, photos and much more, this guide tracks the artists and recordings that throw down the funk!".
  • "From James Brown to the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Funk gets on the good foot with the whole funk family: classic funk, disco funk, funk rock, funky soul, jazz funk, white funk, and beyond. In-depth histories explore funk from its roots in New Orleans, psychedelia, and Motown to today's revival through rap and hip-hop.".
  • "Funk takes you to the heart, soul, and guts of funk - where musicians play, improvise, and feed each other until they hit a groove and the groove takes over. Like Dave Thompson says, "You cannot fake the funk.""--BOOK JACKET.
