Funk

Summary Noddy Holder narrates the surprising origins of our favourite music genres. Owing a huge debt to James Brown and Bootsy Collins, Funk evolved during the 1960s to reflect the struggles of Black America and later soundtracked many a "Blaxploitation" movie. By the mid-70s its sound had crossed the racial divide and gone global. Brit-funk star David Grant and choreographer Toni Basil are among those putting classic performances by Brown, Isaac Hayes, Kool and the Gang, George Clinton and Bootsy Collins back into the spotlight.
