- Lonnie Liston Smith. Expansions. (1975/Flying Dutchman) Here we are … the greatest jazz-funk track ever recorded (let the debate begin)! The cosmic jazz dance classic “Expansions” was a massive crossover hit during the mid-seventies, not only being praised by the underground jazz scene, but a heavily played selection among Manhattan’s most notable disco deejays including The Loft’s David Mancuso and The Gallery’s Nicky Siano.
- Gil Scott-Heron & Brian Jackson. The Bottle. (1974/Strata-East) Probably my favorite song of all-time (even though it slightly falls short of the #1 spot on this list), Gil Scott-Heron and Brian Jackson’s 1974 “The Bottle” is one of the funkiest tracks you’ll ever hear.
- Gary Bartz NTU Troop. Celestial Blues. (1971/Milestone Records) Another brilliant track from the first Harlem Bush Music album by Bartz and his NTU Troop group, “Celestial Blues” has rightfully become a jazz dance classic.
- Donald Byrd. (Fallin’ Like) Dominoes. (1975/Blue Note Records) Featured on one of Donald Byrd’s greatest albums Places And Spaces from 1975, which topped the Billboard Jazz Charts at number 1 and broke the top 50 of Billboard‘s top 200 when it was released.

- Come On, Come Over’ – Jaco Pastorius (1976) There was no other bassist quite like Jaco Pastorius, nor will there ever be. There was also no other song that epitomised jazz-funk quite like ‘Come On, Come Over’, the second number from Jaco’s 1976 self-titled debut album.
- Sly’ – Herbie Hancock (1973) Herbie, in a 2008 issue of Keyboard Magazine, offers an interesting reflection on how hanging out with Miles Davis completely transformed his view of jazz.
- Magic Mind’ – Earth, Wind & Fire (1977) Earth, Wind & Fire are unquestionably the greatest band that ever did funk, and I would easily regard their 1977 album All ‘N All to be the high point of their discography.
- Some Skunk Funk’ – The Brecker Brothers (1975) You know how jazz bassists have Jaco? And keyboardists have Herbie? Well, trumpeters and saxophonists have the Brecker Brothers.
