What are some great "jazzy" songs?

What are some great 70's, 80's, 90's, 00's, 10's uptempo soul, neo-soul, jazzy, neo-funk dance songs?

• From D'Angelo to Jamiroquai, I want the help of the Quora community to assemble an extensive list of great soulful music for the dance floor, excluding most disco and house music. Few samples, more musicianship in the music. I know there may be some great soul tracks that would be considered disco or house, but a vast majority of it doesn't belong on this list. Here are some examples of soul music for the dance floor: Me'Shell Ndegéocello - I'm Diggin' You (Like An Old Soul Record) Jamiroquai - Little L (Disco, but soulfully funky) Rahsaan Patterson - So Fine Stevie Wonder - Free The Brand New Heavies - Dream On Dreamer

• Answer:

  I'm going to list a few Stevie Wonder tracks that are simply in the groove, and certainly great for dancing. Stevie Wonder "Finger Tips Part 2" is a must-have. The way the music pulls and pushes on the crowd is very similar to what you would get with a DJ now a days, but done with all drums and harmonica. The beat goes out and several times and then drops again. "Uptight (Everything's Alright)" is another good one. The drums are super hype. Finally, "I Was Made to Love Her" has a bass line that is such a sweet spot. These songs will definitely will bring the rhythm out of anyone.
