Whether you choose to call him "the Funky Professor" or the "Uhuru Maggot" there is little dispute that Rickey Vincent is America's leading academic authority on the funk. The author of "Funk: the Music, the People, and the Rhythm of the ONE" Rickey has taught classes at SF State, USF, and has most recently entered the doctoral program at the University of California at Berkeley. The longtime host of KPFA's Friday night "History of Funk" radio show, Rickey is an accomplished purveyor of funky grooves.
