..also Midnight Star "Freak-a-zoids" and "Operator"

Dull use of the vocoder, but ace beats and tunes anyway.

"Night Spots", the Cars. OK it's not really funk. Actually I'm not sure it's a vocoder on there. It's great though!

I mentioned a couple of these on another thread, but I could talk about these tracks all day so..
Which way is up - Starguard
more bounce to the ounce - Zzap
With You - Alex Gopher
Get real Paid? - Beck
Around the World - Daft Punk

the rest isn't undiluted funk (I've always felt there's a place for funk in any genre)

Together/Six Synths/Boogie Down Bronx - Man Parrish
Naive Song - Mirwais
Kurupt - Rid wid Us - it has the funk, and backing 'vocals' that sound like melting plastic
California Love - Tupac/Dre
Baby you can't deny (track 11)- Clinton (slow grinding funk)
Munich Machine LP- DJ Hell (disco/techno, but undeniably funky)
I am a Disco Dancer - Christopher Just's (OK, this is pushing it)

I'm overwhelmed by this thread, I'll focus tommorrow.......
