George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic

Folks,

Some would say "why did you start with the God Father of Funk and Soul, James Brown?" Yeah father James sits at the top of the prayamid.  He's father.  However, I choose George Clinton and the P-Funk because they took silly costumes and on the sly played and sanged so well it make you wanna almost slap your mama.

What's fascinating to me is that George nem started as a doo-wop group.  Man their transformation was serious.

I simply love the Funk. During the late 60s and throughout the 70s there were so many fantastic black bands, groups and vocalists, you did know what to do with yourself.  If this your first introduction to George and P-Funk enjoy.  If you have been around the block a few times and was young in their heydey, while just relive the beauty of seeing and hearing live bands and vocalists who did not need any props to make them sound good.  These people could do it live.

Mission Statement

Raphaell Saadiq - Good Man Acoustic & NPR Music

Raphael has been around since the 90s.  He is a musican.  So I feel he deserves a shout.  I like the sound of his acoustic version of Good Man, and his NPR Music presentation.  I love the live instrumentation.

What do you think?

Parliament Funkadelic – Comic Slop -Mothership Connection – Houston 1976

Cosmic Slop.  I love this song.  The mama is trickin' to feed her children.  My question has always been why are you reproducing when you don't have the basic means to support them.  I don't understand the mentality of bringing children in the world to suffer.  I believe you should be at least able to put a basic roof over their heads, food in their mouths, and clothes on their backs  - the basic.

What do you think of this song?  If you dig it, you know what to do. Pay it forward 20 times to friends, family and enemies.  A good deed never goes unrewarded.
