New Improved Funk

New Improved Funk is an album by American jazz guitarist George Freeman recorded in 1973 and released on the Groove Merchant label.

Reception
Allmusic's Jason Ankeny said: "It's a fun house ride that veers sharply from funk to jazz to soul and back again, its scattershot approach nevertheless proves the best showcase George Freeman's guitar ever had. ... Somehow this mess still comes together, galvanized by Von Freeman's fiery tenor sax and its undeniably impressive gutbucket grooves. Everything that it's advertised to be".
