Now I’m gonna dump all my KJ Sawka stuff here :smirk_cat:

KJ ain’t exactly funky, but he is technically magnificent.

Drummer friend of mine turned me on to Jojo Mayer—some showy, virtuoso, how-is-he-even-doing-that stuff.

The Meters - Cissy Strut

There’s really an embarrassment of choice when it comes to great songs by the Meters

Well as long as we’re all doing songs sampled by Public Enemy, I’ll kick in James Brown - Funky Drummer

This has it all! (you really need to make your rules more specific)

Don’t worry. Next thread I start I’m only accepting songs written in 7/8 or 13/4 timing that also happen to be in minor keys.

I don’t know if Howling Diablos qualifies as funk, but I love the drums on this song.

And another one-- I can’t find “Record Collection” (another great drum song) or their “It’s My Party” cover, so here’s “Funky Daddy” instead.
