Praxis may be over the top, Funkadelic meets heavy metal, but with Buckethead on guitar its wild and worth a listen. Victor Wooten has a couple solo albums that are jazzy and funky. Papa Grows Funk is, uh funky. And have you heard Brand New Heavies BrotherSister? Maybe these dont hit the nail on the head but they are all great.
Like Herbie Hancock's funk, more please
I've found myself listening to Herbie Hancock's finkier albums (Thrust, Manchild, Headhunter) over and over again lately. Who else was (or is) doing that kind of funky fusion?
