I read 20 or 30 years ago that Rick James was credited with being the ‘father’ of “Funk”.

Really? Rick James? Was it written by M.C. Hammer? Althogh he was born in 1948, James was wet behind the ears when the Godfather started the movement. James' first "hits" (modest ones at that) were in the late 70s and his only super-hit was in 1981. Rick James was a disco oddity at best. James Brown and others had been making it funky throughout the 60s and the roots go back farther. Every song JB touched was a smash by the day's standards and I'll bet "I Feel Good" has outsold "Superfreak" 10 fold. Anyone who wrote that Rick James was the father of funk, disrespects the Godfather, is simply uninformed or snorting too much of what Rick James was into to be writing about it. Remember, there ain't no songs called "Diggin' on Rick James" even though I suppose M.C. Hammer made a career out of doing it ("Can't Touch This" is "Super Freak").

An intresting sidnote to Rick James (and likely why I don't even include him), he went AWOL from the US Navy in 1964 (he served on the USS Enterprise), fled to Canada, joined a band called the Mynah Birds which by 1966 included Neil young. The band's first album was never realeased when James was outed by Columbia Records, caught by the FBI and sent to prison for the first of many times. Neil Young went on the become Neil Young - funkier than Rick James imho.

I did not know all of that background about Rick James and the U.S. Navy but I was aware of his heavy drug usage. I was only imparting information that I had read many years ago although, of course, I knew that people before him had been doing “Funk”. I was simply wondering if Rick James was somehow in the background, promoting the sound and was responsbile for the sound. Maybe what I had read actually credited James with “Punk Funk”.

Thank you for all of the background information. ;-)

No Hu-hu my FRiend. I just pass on information and often seriously biased personal opinions. Obviously my opinion of Rick James is jaundiced. He made a passing contribution to music to be sure, but had fundamental problems that ultimately detroyed him and most of his posse. Outside of “Give It To Me Baby” and “Super Freak”, I feel Rick James was a one-trick pony.

George Clinton, Bootsy Collins and Eddie Hazel stand head and shoulders above him as the founders and movers of P-Funk (Punk Funk is a bit of a misnomer). Parliament-Funkadelic, P-Funk Allstars, Bootsy’s Rubber Band all owe more to the influences of Jimi Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, James Brown, Maceo Parker (an eventual member of Parliment), Sun Ra, Frank Zappa and even Screamin’ Jay Hawkins, Sly Stone and the Coasters than Rick James imho.
