in my mind that guitar lick is as epic as Starship Trooper only it ends way too soon.

Proggy funk? Sky King. Several Tower of Power members, Dave Brubek's son on bass. Lots of odd time signatures. Unfortunately the album went nowhere.

Probably the proggiest funk track in the thread!
Here's a couple that might fall under this category:

Naaah, I was only kidding ... Proholio's suggestions are more than welcome. :beer
Actually, if at first the song sounds a tad twee, one gets frustrated at the ending (too abrupt, really)
great musical suggestion, but the video part is heavily trafficked... the disc is not even spinning at 16RPM :lol
Nektar funky?
There are funk-rock parts in that track by Nektar.
Another track I've posted in the same post isn't funk, but funky krautrock. Slightly off-topic, but amazing one.
EDIT: Two other gems from Eastern Europe:

Nobody mentioned Herbie yet?

I still wouldn't consider that Nektar track funky. Just because it has a wah-wah effect on the guitar, doesn't make it funky.
uuuhhh, Svettie, you still have a solid problem of discerning what a musical genre is.... :roll
Yeah, there slight traces of funk in your Dymon Jr suggestion, and ok you hear some in Nektar's track, but we're talking FUNK (not junk) ;)
Your Izvir suggestions are a little more on line, though, but please refrain from highjacking threads with besides-the-point-suggestions....
... or wait until the thread reaches page 8 or 9 to do so and that everyone's not paying attention anymore. :p
