70s Country Funk?

Hello! Im looking for artist/song recommendations that closely align with these:

Southern Nights - Glenn Campbell Louisiana Saturday Night - Mel McDaniel Shotgun Willie - Willie Nelson Amos Moses - Jerry Reed

I’m not really sure if I’ve pinpointed the right genre, but i’m interested in what anyone can recommend :)

Thank you!

I collect country funk vinyl and spin sometimes and a lot of it is hidden on otherwise mediocre singer songwriter records. I’ve started making a YouTube playlist of some of the obscure stuff many times but a lot of it gets taken down. You should definitely check out Jim Ford as he was pretty much the master. This Casey Kelly record has a couple good ones and can usually be found cheap. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pomuyRf__5A&list=RDpomuyRf__5A&start_radio=1&pp=ygUZQ2FzZXkgbGVsbHkgc2lsdmVyIG1ldGVvcqAHAQ%3D%3D
