Overall I've got to roll with

    THE PARLIAMENTS

  • The S/T joint is hard as fuck. "Mamma what is a funkadelic?" oh shit! The bass playing on that whole album, got you open. Funk you very much indeed. If I had to make a top 5.

    1. S/T
    2. Maggot Brain
    3. Osmium
    4. Free Your Mind and you ass will follow
    5. Cosmic Slop

  • I've got to go with Osmium. That's proabably been my most listened to album over the past couple of years. That shit does not get old. I was listening to that shit this morning on my way to work and just think "Damn, these lyrics are so so so, right on with everything."

    Homosapien...progessing...


  • i'd imagine this is pretty different from the "red hot mama" they released in 1976?


    yes. heavy ass guitars, crazy Seger-ish screams, it's

    Sentimental favorite because I used to blast this record in the front room of my Grandparents' house every time I was visiting:



    "We are children of production
    produced in conjunction
    with the urgency of our
    Dr. Funkenstein"


    oh and...


    "Gettin' to know you
    was one of the things that I
    chose to do
    baby I love you
    and the world
    that surrounds you...


    FOREVER CLASSIC

    I've never heard that version!  

    Here is my Top 5:

    Funkadelic - ST
    Parliament - The Clones Of Dr. Funkenstein (one of the first funk LPs I bought)
    Funkadelic - Cosmic Slop
    Parlet - Play Me Or Trade Me
    Parliament - Motor Booty Affair

  • i'll do up Red Hot Mama tonight unless someone beats me to it. It's also on the Complete Invictus Recordings CD, although it's different from the 45, I'll put up both.

  • here's the CD version:

    FUNKADELIC - COSMIC SLOP

  • Those two Ruth Copeland albums are worth a mention. I wouldn't put them up there with Maggot Brain or Osmium, but damn she was badasss...

    i'm surprised this hasn't yet been mentioned.

    I really like The Parliments Version of "Good Old Music" on Revilot.Just sounds allot tougher than the Self Titled verison from Funkadelic lp.



  • I think I love the Osmium era the best.

    The band was a tight unit and the music really stands up, I don't think Eddie Hazel ever sounded as good as he does on the Invictis stuff and the Ruth Copeland albums.

    As far as the later 'proper' P-Funk stuff goes, I think that Bootsy's Rubber Band was the absolute peak of brilliance, especially the live shows.

    So, yeah, records..Hmm:

    -Osmium (UK CD reissue with non-LP cuts & 45s)
    -Ruth Copeland's 'I am what I am' & 'Self Portrait'
    -Stretchin' Out
    -Up For the Downstroke
    -Chocolate City
    -Let's Take It To the Stage

    Cosign, this is my favorite post-Maggot Brain Funkadelic record. They got Eddie Hazel back in full force, and he co-wrote every song...

    "Good Thoughts Bad Thoughts" aka Maggot Brain's mellower cousin =
