+ The greatest Krautrock band of all time. tbh its one of those bands I really need to listen to more. +
+ ++ Another great Krautrock band. They have a bit heavier sound than Can. +
+Pink Floyd is not a prog rock band. @@ -235,6 +246,79 @@ table { +
+ The funkest band in the list. More funk than you can handle! p-funk is some pretty strong stuff. Its lethal. Its + actually two bands but its members kept going back and forth and they forgot were each band started and ended. +
+ ++ A vey influential funk band ineed. They were mixed race and gender, and they were an important + part of the civil rights movement. Also their single Thank You is the first song ever released with + slap bass which was played by Larry Graham. +
+ ++ Larry Graham created it so that means its 100 percent funk. Larry Graham is the enbodiment of funk + so anything he touches gets turned into pure 100 percent organic funk. +
+ ++ This one is quite different than any of the funk bands on this list and really is its own thing. + Their name is a calypso word for dove which is a symbol of peace and love. You can hear the peace and love + in their music and it flows into the ear and through rest of body. This is a band that truly transforms + their geist into energy and vibrations for rest of the world to hear. +
+ ++ Another band that is so funky its lethal! They were not that well known during their time recording + but have gained much more of a following now. Do check them out if you think you can handle so much + funk! +
+ ++ Its hard to believe a bunch of white dudes can get so funky but they did and its real funky! +
+ ++ Jaco Pastorius is one of the greatest bassists of all time. He played for Weather Report and + released some really funky solo work. +
+ ++ Billy Cobham is one hell of a drummer. He played for Miles Davis and Mahavishnu Orchestra. + You need to listen to his solo work now (thats a threat). He also had influence + on many prog artists including King Crimson. +
+ ++ His dad had a band and personally knew many very well known artists so Shuggie grow up around + them and learned guitar at a very young age. He played in his dads band as a little kid and they + would make him dress like a old man so they could sneak him into bars to play with + the band. As he got older he got countless offers from some really big artists to play in their band + but he gave them all up and instead produced his own albums and remained a small artist so he could + make the music he wanted to make. +
+ ++ Not really my favorite funk band but still funky. And funky is good. +
