cool stuff...Freddie Wilson was another one of the many James Brown types that funked in that style.
Archie has that unmistakable tone. I got a lot of his stuff. It's so cool you can see this stuff on YouTube.com. It would be so hard to find this on DVD...
If I didn't play sax (alto and bari - sold my tenor and soprano a while ago), I'd play bass as well. I got an EWI that's wicked for laying down bass tracks - still not as fun as a sax though.
Here's some fun-ky stuff...just for the funk of it.

Robb,
Freekbass is funky man...never knew about them, thanks for the post!
Definitely in the vein of Bootsy p-funkativity...
I think the two funkiest shows I've ever been to are Bootsy and Prince - it's a toss up, I've seen both of them several times and always got a neck ache the next day!
Here's a cool Bootsy jam with David Sanborn...

This is a great time for high quality re-releases of obscure and otherwise unavailable funky music.
Labels like Numero Group and Soundway are consistently putting out amazing music--all fully licensed and often straight from the masters.
If you're at all into the idea of Cuban funk, I produced a fully licensed compilation of Cuban funk from the 70s on my label Waxing Deep. It's called "Si Para Usted: The Funky Beats of Revoluiontary Cuba". I give you permission to download it illegally on the condition that if you like it, you'll buy vol. 2!
Meanwhile, I've got a website (www.waxingdeep.org) that has eight years worth of radio shows that are pretty funk heavy, but I also played a lot of jazz and the like. I haven't updated it ages on account of starting a new corporate gig and trying to take my climbing to another level, but there's tonnes of good stuff there to check out.
Cheers,
Dan
