kurly Posted December 8, 2002 Report Posted December 8, 2002 I feel like making a goodtimes cd, but I lack the creative juices (shouts out to all the other canjammers in school!!). Any suggestions for some truly funky jamz?
Snelly Posted December 8, 2002 Report Posted December 8, 2002 Burt Neilson Band - Down With the Sound is always a good one. I always like Roses are Free too.
Snelly Posted December 8, 2002 Report Posted December 8, 2002 Speaking of Hendrix Rainy Day, Dream Away through to Still Raining, Still Dreaming off of ElectricLadyland is pretty cool. Sot so sure if my choices are super funky as opposed to feel good though. Good luck.
Booche Posted December 8, 2002 Report Posted December 8, 2002 I will be a big fan of Nero's Condor til I die............and the funky one's are fun too! Aside from that, I also like Jimi Hendrix's Band Of Gypsy's doing Changes. It's all perspective
Booche Posted December 8, 2002 Report Posted December 8, 2002 Oh my god Snelly, you read my original post, and posted as I was re-posting. DUDE! ITS 2 AM! Dont make me re-post..............
shainhouse Posted December 8, 2002 Report Posted December 8, 2002 nero - 401 Theme always a good time!
Snelly Posted December 8, 2002 Report Posted December 8, 2002 That's funny. No need to re-post, but I wondered what happened to that one...
Booche Posted December 8, 2002 Report Posted December 8, 2002 I deleted it. DAMMIT, you made me re-post! (I read your reference to canjammers, and had to re-post. I hadnt included any.)
kurly Posted December 8, 2002 Author Report Posted December 8, 2002 Lovin' the suggestions so far, and so early in the morning! Keep them coming, let's hear some all time favs!
frescolopez Posted December 8, 2002 Report Posted December 8, 2002 Definately likin' a Jomomma - Briefly and Strangefolk - Movin". Really linkin' nero - Lemondust (it just keeps getting better and better).
Guest Low Roller Posted December 8, 2002 Report Posted December 8, 2002 Yeah, I'm currently working on a mix as well. I'm trying to cover as much of the musical landscape as I can in 14 songs (approx.), and it's proving to be exceedingly difficult.
bradm Posted December 8, 2002 Report Posted December 8, 2002 The "Free Form Funkafide Filth" track from the Carlos Santana / Buddy Miles album is possibly the sickest, longest, and angriest funk jam I've heard. Low Roller and I were at dave-O's place on Friday night, and he had the LP out. He told us about the track, and we had him put it on, causing us to spend the next 25 minutes or so (it's the whole side 2 of the LP) with our jaws on the floor. On a lighter note, "Swag" by viperHouse (from the "Shed" CD) is a gas: it's an entire lesson in socioeconomics (hey, how many funk jams use the word "hegemony"?) encased in some seriously fun funk. Aloha, Brad
doug Posted December 8, 2002 Report Posted December 8, 2002 Gotta have a Scarlet/Fire in there somewhere
Guest Low Roller Posted December 8, 2002 Report Posted December 8, 2002 As of right now my mix looks something like this: 01- Flunk "I love music" 02- The Stone Roses "Fool's Gold" 03- Phish "Moma Dance" 04- Tuatara "In The Passing Lane" 05- Threat From Outer Space "Soul Patrollers" 06- Blind Melon "Toes Across The Floor" 07- Allman Brothers Band "Jessica" 08- Emerson, Lake, and Palmer "Hoedown" 09- Primal Scream "Autobahn 66" 10- Bran Van 3000 "Astounded" 11- Thievery Corporation "Emerald All" 12- New Order "Slow Jam" 13- A Tribe Called Quest "Excursions" 14- Drums and Tuba "Green Shirt" 15- Garcia & Grisman "Shady Grove" 16- The Doors "The Ghost Song" 17- Radiohead "Blowout (remix)" It's slightly schitzophrenic to say the least, yet it represents my taste in music quite nicely. There were so many more bands I wanted to fit in here: Jimi, Dead, Cypress Hill, moe., Tea Party, Boards of Canada, Sublime, etc... This may become a 2 CD set.
shainhouse Posted December 9, 2002 Report Posted December 9, 2002 Blane, that's a cool mix. I'm gonna make one tonite as well.
kurly Posted December 9, 2002 Author Report Posted December 9, 2002 The juices are starting to get revitalized - thanks!!! Yea, lovin the mix so far, I think it may turn into a few volumes... Im also thinking about putting together a sorta "festival music" compilation... u know... the tunes u hear being blasted at like 05:30 on a Monday - what's everyone's fav songs at - say Ghosttown?
Northern Wish Posted December 9, 2002 Report Posted December 9, 2002 Some good ones that always make my mixes a little better: Everythings Coming Our Way- Santana Further On Down the Road- Taj Mahal Scenic Anomaly- The New Meanies Whatever Gets You Through the Night-John Lennon Gin and Juice- The Gourds Kodachrome- Paul Simon What I Got- Sublime Feelin Alright- Joe Cocker (or Isaac Hayes) Can't Ya Hear Me Knockin- Rolling Stones Graceland- Paul Simon First Tube- Phish King Harvest- The Band and a good mix couldn't finish better than: Here Comes the Sun- The Beatles Just a thought........

Jaimoe Posted December 10, 2002 Report Posted December 10, 2002 Every funk mixed cd can't be without James Brown, Bootsy Collins, Funkadelic and Parliment.
