If you can think of similar -hard rock-psychedelic Funk- commercial somewhat bands in this vein from back then.

back to Brian for a second this from his wiki.
Bill Graham, the impresario behind the Fillmore West and the Fillmore East, felt that Brian was an exciting live rock drummer.[citation needed] The few times the Chambers Brothers were not top-billed (not the main act that night) with Brian on drums, the top-billed group was reluctant to follow them because they were intimidated by the Chambers Brothers with Keenan on drums. The Brothers affectionately referred to Brian as Curley and introduced him onstage as Brian "Chambers" Keenan. The Chambers Brothers predated Sly and the Family Stone as harbingers of psychedelic soul.

My band opened for The Chambers Brothers at a small Club in Modesto California back around '79 or '80.
I had PG&E "Are you Ready" on 8-track in High School. I love that album.
