Thank you Larry, now I have ‘em ALL… and thank you to the loyal reader who helped you to restore ‘em all.
November 19, 2007 at 9:37 am |
Wow! You never cease to amaze me! You can’t imagine the joy you’ve brought to this “virtual” crate digger. Would that I had the resources or location to hunt for some real sides myself! Keep it up! I’ve lately been tasting your mixes. Who’d a thunk it?!? Al Hurt and Ginsberg!
Many thanks! (Have I used enough explanation points? I’ll try to remain calm next time.)
November 19, 2007 at 7:35 pm |
Wow, nice effort.
I was just given a hand-me-down Ipod. Never really had a need for one, don’t work in an office, don’t travel much, don’t go to the gym, vehicle is not mp3 compatible and we’ve actually got 3 good community radio options in this area.
But, first thing I’m going to do is load it with all 38 Funky 16s.
Might have to do something crazy like start jogging.
November 20, 2007 at 1:28 pm |
Thanks Larry for this wonderful music ! This is a real GREAT job !
November 20, 2007 at 5:44 pm |
mmmmmm…… tasty……
Many thanks for both mixed and zipped. I’ve mostly pulled the mixed versions, and have missed a few zips that I wanted.

Top Bloke! What with two hours drive across England in the morning to work – then two hours back – this lot keeps a smile on my face – plenty of chaps staring at that Volvo at seven thirty in the morning in the fast lane with the grinning guy and thumping bassline ! My vinyl trawls are unearthing less and less without remortgaging the house so – CHEERS!
Gord bless ya (and the ipod)!

Larry, it’s great that you’ve archived these podcasts! If I could make a suggestion, it’d be great if you could provide links from each podcast to your original commentary on the tracks. I find this info very interesting and educational, yet it takes awhile to dig through the monthly archives to find the original post.
Anyway, thanks for the musical education. Keep it comin’!

From: Ulysses Crockdett (echojurist@yahoo.com); Congratulations on your fine selection and breadth of selections presented on your radio show. As a vibraphone player, it was great to see my song Major Funky on the same playlist as Gary Burton’s ‘Sweet Rain’. As ou kow Gary Burton is the premiere living Vibraphone master and Dean of Curriculum at Boston’s Berklee Colleg of Music and a mentor to Crockett for many years.
Keep up the wonderful artistic work while providing an historical record of the efforts of many artists not necessarily substantially exposed to the public ears.
Will foward to you my 1960′s band’s version of Donovan’s ‘Sunshine Superman” recorded with same instrumentatioin and music colleagues as appearing onn ‘Major Funky”.
Happ Holidays to all the operatives at Funky 16 Corners Mighty Radio.

Hi…I was wondering if you can help me. Your site is so amazing by the way. We need more sites like this.
Im trying to find The Performers – I can’t stop you
I listened to it once at a funk soul club and am in love with it. I see you blogged about it once…but I still can’t find the mp3. Is there anyway you can post it up on your next podcast?
thank you!

I keep coming back and there’s always more to enjoy! I also love the fact that a lot of your records aren’t super obscure rarities that now cost $$$s, usually just $$s, or ££s for me. endless amounsts of pleasure have and are still to be taken from your site. Maximum respect Larry!

Lovin these sessions, Larry.
I particularly enjoy Funky16Corners Radio v.43 – the Unquiet Storm.
That Ken Boothe version of “Down By The River” is insane. Any chance you’ll give us a dedicated show of reggae covers of funk/soul in the future. Thanks!

Thanks for the kind words (and the same to everyone else that’s stopped by to say hi.).
I don’t have a ton of OG reggae vinyl, so – in keeping with my ‘all vinyl’ rule I don’t imagine a mix like that anytime soon. However I will mention this to my man DJ Prestige at Fleamarket Funk who is a serious reggae head.

Hi Funkster,
Just discovered your site and am loving it, well done my son!
Thought I would ask if you have a track by Benny Spellman called “This One’s For You My Love”. I have been looking for it for ages so if you had it it would be great to hear it again as it is such an awesom tune.
Keep the faith.

Hey!
Just discovered this and it bloody brilliant!
Got the first 3 and plan on getting the lot.
You have really opened my eyes, for a 17 year old to be once only a fan of people like The Meters and all the George Clinton stuff I am so excited to have all these other great artists to listen to.
Thank you
James.

Woah….I have long been a fan of the blog, but just stumbled on this. My god. Will I ever need to purchase music again?
Thank god for Mr Grogan, and thank God for the internet for bringing his message to us.

This archive has been a blessing to me and I’m sure many others. Keep it up! You’re doing the world a huge favor.

Thank you for sharing these rare songs.
Great artists to know!

1) Bobby Parker’s Watch Your Step! Kowabunga and genuflections.
2)Cold war theme: I often mishear Johnny Rivers’ Secret Agent Man as Secret Asian Man. Edwin Starr’s Agent 00 Soul. And now, Perry & the Harmonics’ Do the Monkey With James.
Many Thanks

Larry,
YOU are the MAN. I set myself a target a few years back to rip my vinyl collection of funk and northern 45s onto a digital format and get them on-line to share with like-minded lovers of the beat.
However, I am about 15 tracks into my collection and struggling for time, but your efforts have inspired me.
Fantastic tunes… long may you keep them coming brother
Rich (keepin’ the faith)
July 25, 2008 at 5:41 pm |
P.S. that’s 15 out of 5,500 45s (I need to put more effort in!)

I LOVE YOU

Hi Larry,
Being myself an -old mod- collector I’ve found the original website very interesting and bought the 2 hammond burner compilations (I would never have known perry&the harmonics, hindal butts and dave lewis otherwise) then switched to the blog and I am still really astonished by your archivist work and your ability for tracklisting (no fillers everytime !).But as I’ve grown up with garage, psych and freakbeat bands (being 43) I equally appreciate Iron Legs stuff !!!
August 29, 2008 at 8:05 pm |
Thank You very much for all your enthusiasm for this music! I am consistently impressed with everything you have posted and am surprised at the amount of material out there. I have been playing ‘soul food pt. 1 & 2′, ‘funky nawlin’s', ‘these arms of mine’ and ‘chi-town hustlers’ a lot at work… i’ve barely scratched the surface! There are a lot of comments on the music, and it puts everyone in a great mood! This is just fabulous, I cannot begin to thank you for this music!
September 8, 2008 at 7:55 pm |
OK. Was a very good work. But somebody asking me: there’s someone who sing original into this great collection ?? Where are James Brown, Etta James and the others ?? Thanks in advance

I have been asking friends for their favourite funk for me to listen to and some can give me a name or two but I know now that I am the only one who truly CRAVES the funk and the majority of my pals just do not get it. So this morning I stumbled, half asleep, across your Funky Corners and I am wide awake, dancing and in love!!!!!! THANK YOU! Gotta go dance…to hard to sit and type with the music pumping!

June 23, 2009 at 5:02 am |
thanks for all the great music, i mainly downloaded the funky stuff and some soul sisters so far. i own a lot of really good funk compilations but the stuff on your website and the others (Parkdale, Fleamarket) is a welcome addition. so many treasures to be found …..
as a “reggaehead” may i advice some of the people who wrote here:
look for the “Darker than blue” compilation on blood&fire.
also check the producer Derrick Harriott who produced a lot of soul influenced reggae.
this is only the tip of the iceberg, because in reggae there are so many soul covers (Curtis Mayfield for example) you can’t believe it. on the other hand jamaica was heavily influenced by the US RnB back in the golden days …

An amazing selection of music.
Snapped me out of my House and Dubstep world and took me back to the 80s rare groove warehouse parties I loved so much.
Thank you

Absolutely incredible. I’ve been a collector of rare soul and funk for 40 years and you have opened my ears, mind and wallet to a whole new crop of artists. Thanks so much.

Hey, I love your website. Thanks for posting all your compilations. I was wondering if you have any good Monk Higgins mp3s…can’t find anything on the web except his big hits. I want to invest in some Monk HIggins vinyl, which seems to be the only format available, but I don’t know what to get.
Any suggestions?

Larry,
Utterly amazing job you’ve done. A collection to kill for and your generous heart has shared it with the world. Thanks so much. Two I’ve been looking all over the place for with no luck, and I didn’t think they would be hard to find since they were relative hits are Howard Tate’s Ain’t Nobody Home and Look at Granny Run Run. Also on the obscure side, a killer piano trio out of Chicago named Fathers and Sons. Once again, great job.

Really enjoying the mixes, and it’s always nice to see a picture or two of my boy, Mr. Wayne Cochran. Never had to buy a drink when he performed — he did the pouring for our table!

[...] Funky16Corners has Great music, Soul-Sides a little better, but what Funky16Corners has is full audioblog episodes of soul/funk covers of Beatles songs, and I am obsessed with that band, to the point of dementia. actually, they have plenty of podcasts in their podcast archive. [...]

Hi Larry – I LOVE your blog and would like to download the zip files like I did last year, but can’t seem to figure out how to do it now. I want the zips because, of course, there are some songs that I want to keep and some that I don’t, and would like to make my own playlist. Can you tell me how to do this? Much thanks and appreciation.

I think your blog is wonderful and I’m super digging the mixes. Thanks and keep it up! : )
