I need more Funk

I've had two discs in my SACD lately that I just can't get enough of, Herbie Hancock's Head Hunters & Jeff Beck's Blow by Blow. These two discs never fail. So what other choices are out there? I want to hear incredible musicians playing exciting music on good recordings that don't bore me to death like some jazz I've been exposed to. I need to boogie so give me some suggestions.

Very cool, the term funk seems to have some very broad parameters indeed. Funk means many things to many people.

I can't really define "funk" b/c it means a little disco, a little soul & a little.... funk ;) We may not be able to define it but I certainly see a few fans of it around here. Thanks for all the great suggestions, I have some shopping to do.

Funk means that the beat is on the one.
A few more artists:
George Clinton
Cameo
Sly & the family stone
Brecker brothers
We all need more funk, I know I do.

Crusaders new release Rural Renewal sounds pretty funky to me. Also try an earlier release Healing the Wounds.
