What are some great Soul/Funk/RnB albums, /mu/?
I've been wanting to get into this spectrum of music more and I've heard some of the classics such as pic related, but I'd like to dig a little deeper.

 well, the thing is, despite great larger label acts who made album-oriented soul in the late 60s and 70s (hayes, mayfield, wonder, green, gaye etc), soul has been a single-driven format since its inception in the early 60s, and funk followed suit
you're best going through comps (dave godin's ones are good, as are stuff by soul jazz records, numero group, and a ton of others) or just listening to singles on youtube
that said, one album i don't hear enough about, aside from the credit it gets for being sampled, is marva whitney's it's my thing. amazing female fronted funk, produced by james brown with the JBs for backing
