 Funk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Funk music was originated by African Americans, e.g., James Brown and his band members (especially Maceo and Melvin Parker), and groups like Parliament-Funkadelic, Sly and the Family Stone, or The Meters.
Interestingly, although probably unrelated, a 'Blue funk' was used by pre-war British schoolboys to describe the upset stomach and 'Bottom burps' that arise from a feeling of terror brought on by a looming examination or the threat of a caning, which may just tie in with the 'odour' theory mentioned above.
Another group who would define funk in the decade to come were The Isley Brothers whose funky 1969 #1 RandB hit, "It's Your Thing", signaled a breakthrough in African-American music bridging the gaps of the rock of Jimi Hendrix and the upbeat soul of Sly and the Family Stone and Mother's Finest.
