I've been meaning to ask this for awhile, but have been too embarassed to bring it up, but........now I'm willing to take the hit.I haven't been able to get over Head Hunters fandom and was wondering if anyone had any groups (obscure or just off the radar) who strived to have the same sort of sound as the Headhunters.Maybe this question is waaay too general to answer but I know some will know what I'm talking about. You know, groups that rip-off their basslines, vocal accompaniment, etc.Don't chirp this one out, folks.Haters may contribute, too.Thanks in advance!

    The Voltage Brothers do a decent version of Hang Up Your Hang Ups.

    First thing I would do is get everything by all the band members, I am guessing you did that.

    Eddie Henderson for sure... Miroslav Vitous... also get all the groups Herbie was playing with around that time. I wish I could help out more these are probably all obvious.
