Who's the king of intraplanetary funk?
We all know George Clinton in the king of interplanetary funk but who is the king here on earth?
Inspired by this thing I read:
http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9C0...
that talked about some funk compilations from around the world, specifically India, Indonesia, and Nigeria.
I checked them out, here are a few songs I enjoyed:
Meri Aakhon Mein Ek Sapna Hai - Sapan Jagmohan (India)

Somebody To Love - Kalyanji Anandji (India)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DXnEcdXFVw
Saman Doye - Black Brothers (Indonesia)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lnb4TeGzGw
Do What You Like - AKA (Indonesia)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NO3osux7NEE
Brand New Wayo - Mixed Grill (Nigeria)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RlYdSuhydqI
Some of it sounds more psychedelic or disco than straight funk but it's all good.
I believe that AKA song is from 1970.

George Clinton fo' sho'. If he is the king of interplanetary funk, the earth is only one small part of the universe he rules.

Thanks for the links. There was some good stuff there. AKA sounded like it could have been released 40 years ago. It had a real '70s feel.

edit: Well that would explain why! For some reason, I thought these were newer bands.

For my money... Stevie Wonder (but I'll have to get back and listen to your links!)
