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.

Try the M2 CD. IMO, it's Marcus's best. The man can flat out play.

Miles Davis "Tutu", "Decoy", "You're Under Arrest", "Do-bop". These projects I assume were under Marcus Miller's influence.
Also check on albums of Arif Mardin for the greatest modern jazz funk. Indeed, far more serious than James Brown that is closer rather to disco and pop.

Also Blue NOte's RAW GROOVES series is pretty funky...
