Funk is R&B at its grittiest and earthiest, with emphasis on the bass and drums of the rhythm section. James Brown and Sly Stone are credited with developing Funk from Soul (urbanized/commercialized R&B) in the late 1960's. George Clinton took Sly's style a step further by adding acid rock influences.

This section is strictly for classic or "old school" artists in the genre of funk music from the 60s through the early 80s. (You may find/add "funky" bands from the late 80s through today in the "New and Regional Artists" category.)
