1. "Funk: The Music, The People, and The Rhythm of The One" by Rickey Vincent




-An in-depth book which attempts to define what "Funk" music is and highlights many of the artists and songs in my playlist.








2. "Funky and Groovy Music Records Lexicon"




-A reference guide with all the important information of the funk and soul scene to help create and extensive and thorough collection and funk and soul music. It documents thousands of rare records that were influential to the funk and soul scene.








3. "Sweet Soul Music" by Peter Guralnick
