Sign in to disble this ad
I've been getting in a mood to listen to funky jazz type music with good Bass in it.
Any Ideas on what artists to check out or where to look?
Just some good old smooth Jazz and Funk that I can just press play that makes good background music, and relax to.
Thank You, |

There was alot of stuff on Romantic Warrior that was pretty damn funky.. The stuff I heard on Light as a Feather was a little different... Sorry I wasn't specific. |
