Electric Funk is an album by the American jazz organist Jimmy McGriff of performances recorded in 1969 and released on the Blue Note label.
[1][2] The Allmusic review by Stephen Thomas Erlewine awarded the album 3 out of 5 stars and said, "It's not jazz, it's jazzy soul, and it's among the funkiest of any soul-jazz records from the late '60s, filled with stuttering drum breaks, lite [sic] fuzz guitars, elastic bass, smoldering organ, and punchy, slightly incongruous horn charts.
... in 1969, this was the next step for soul jazz; a genre Jimmy McGriff has always ruled.
... this man has always known how to rock a groove ... Ott's arrangements are riff-oriented and stay out of McGriff's way.
They often launch McGriff into one clever line after another and, fortunately, never tempt him to out-modulate the horn section".
