I browsed this issue in tower the other day, I know there was a section on the early parliaments stuff but I diddnt see mention of my personal favorite track.
Ooh ahh yeah, you're so sweet (x2) The goose that laid the golden egg Was an extraordinary goose (real, real goose) Now just imagine a goose laying a golden egg Why it's a dream come true (real, real goose) Oh, you don't lay no golden egg But you're a golden goose to me Ooh ahh yeah, you're so sweet
Now I'm as happy as a monkey with a peanut machine Since I found you (I found you) Just imagine a monkey with a peanut machine It's a dream come true (dream come true) Oh but I don't need no nut machine Because I'm nuts all over you Ooh ahh yeah, you're so sweet
Hey babe Yeah-heah, babe You're my goose that laid the golden eggs, babe You're my peanut machine Hey babe!
there is a parliament 'red hot mama' 45 on invictus, I think it has 'little ol country boy' on the other side?

i know there is a 45...but "little ol country boy" is the flip to "I call my baby pussycat"
I believe "Little Ol' Country Boy" is the flip to every Parliament 45 on Invictus. I just copped the Red Hot Mama 45 from Manship, it was like $25 with shipping from the UK, I have no idea what it usually goes for but I pretty much never see it so I jumped on it.
I've picked up the first two Copeland solo efforts, and am definitely feeling I Am What I Am more, though I wasn't really into Self Portrait at all when I first played it. I think there are moments on I Am What I Am that are brilliant, but otherwise her pitch can be dodgy in places. I think she might be a better writer than she is a performer. On the Zorn tip, Ken Vandermark's Spaceways Inc group recorded a record of Sun Ra and Funkadelic tunes (13 Cosmic Standards) with Red Hot Mama into Super Stupid. I can't say all the tunes come off that well, but it's a cool record nonetheless.
Musicially, there's some heat on those Ruth Copeland records. There's a pretty good cover of the Stone's "Play with Fire" on I Am What I Am, and Eddie Hazel and Tiki Fullwood really bring it on "Your Love Been So Good to Me" off of Self Portrait. If you dig some of the wackier musical moments from Osmium, you should dig these records, too.

There are a WHOLE BUNCH of different Invictus 45s from that album with different songs and flips etc... I have the one you're talking about but also I have "Country Boy" B/W "Breakdown"

it isnt on the Osmium LP, only the CD issue called "rhenium", which is all the parliament Invictus catalogue.
Oops. My bad. Yeah, I meant "the version on the FIRST THANGS cd?". I think this is the same as "Rhenium".
