Yeah, they did indeed . You can't really go wrong for a foundation for a rap song with such a great sample. Can you recommend any good funk or disco even?

For funk you cant really go wrong with some Maceo and The macks

The song "It's not easy to be me", forget who sings it, real self-indulgent dirge.

Thanks beng, I've given those 2 a listen and I like them both.

Heres another one I came across.

Forgot how cool Tracy Chapman was. It was only when I picked up the guitar yesterday and started playing Fast Car that I remembered.

I saw her live in the INEC, Killarney about 5 years ago and she was just as awesome live!

(I'll stop with the M83 now, this song is just amazing. I'm going to go listen to it in full surround sound naow.)

Hopefully he'll play here again sometime.

Hey flyswatter, I'm a bit of a funk/disco aficionado, so I'll throw you a few:

Are you funky enough? ARE YOU?
(Damn, so many good funk bands/songs, I could go on forever!)

flyswatter · 27-03-2010 11:35PM

Thanks for those Agnostic Mantis, i'll give them a spin.

Nope. They're bland, ****e and overrated just 'cause they have a ****ing banjo.

Yeah jumpguy, I feel embarrassed for you that you think you like them when really you don't because some people think they're shít.

Thanks again Agnostic Mantis (and beng for pointing me in the right direction) for putting up those funk/disco tunes. I enjoyed all of them, especially the first two!

A quick read through allmusic has revealed these gems, it's a funk overload!

jefreywithonef · 28-03-2010 03:49PM

The Stooges FINALLY inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. What a bunch of dullards in the crowd, pity Iggy Pop didn't get up on the table and start dancing or something. Cool to see Eddie Vedder and Mike McCready of Pearl Jam joining the mini stage invasion.
