I think there needs to be a distinction between the funk fan and the
hardcore funkateer afronaut. the casual fan has a best of James Brown disc
in his collection and likes Sly when he(or she!) hears it and has a general
appreciation. there is a definite rash of kids who hear "Give it Away" on
the radio and think they are all down with funk.

What makes a true die hard funkateer? there is no set criteria. you know
when you see him or her on the dancefloor. The afronaut shows its true
colors, you can tell when the funk takes them over.

peace,
