Looking for some funk shuffle songs

[bajerovaquero]

Hello I´m new to this forum so I hope its the right place to post this.
Im looking for some "funk" songs with a shuffle beat around 115-130 bpm to play with a band.
I´m thinkin in JB "doin to death" and using this David Letterman closing as intro:


Let me know some other choices in the style

"Isn't She Lovely" by Stevie Wonder.

"634-5789" by Wilson Pickett.

"Green Onions" by Booker T and the MG's.

"Got To Get You Into My Life" by Earth, Wind and Fire.

And I can't remember the name of this song, but David Letterman's band used to do it all the time...it had an intro that had a triplet figure that went:

| G-F-D-G-F-D-G-F-D-G-F-D | C-Bb-G-C-Bb-G-C-Bb-G-C-Bb-G |

| G-F-D-G-F-D-G-F-D-G-F-D | r-D-D-D-D-D-D-r-r-r-r-r |

Thanks for responding

"Isn't She Lovely" by Stevie Wonder.
This is corny man, I´ve played it hundreds of times, and not very funky... I would prefer to play Higher Ground which I have played just too many times.

"634-5789" by Wilson Pickett.
"Green Onions" by Booker T and the MG's.
RnB tunes, not "funky"

"Got To Get You Into My Life" by Earth, Wind and Fire.
This is a bit better choice, but I´m not really into EWF vibe

Anyone else?
