Definitely! From what I see, "standards" in the acid jazz realm are
late-60s-70s jazz-funk/fusion tunes, such as:
- Freddie Hubbard's "Red Clay"
- Ronnie Laws' "Always There"
- anything Herbie Hancock (IMHO 'Chameleon' is the most over-done tune
played in anny funk jam
Others that qualify:
- Just about any James Brown (i.e. 'Soul Power,' 'Papa Don't Take No Mess')
- 70s Cop show tunes (see James Taylor Quartet)
