One Nation Under a Groove

One Nation Under a Groove (1978) more music like this

by Funkadelic

One Nation Under a Groove was not only Funkadelic's greatest moment, it was their most popular album, bringing them an unprecedented commercial breakthrough by going platinum and spawning a number one R&B smash in the title track. It was a landmark LP for the so-called "black rock" movement, best-typified in the statement of purpose "Who Says a ...

Hardcore Jollies

Hardcore Jollies (1976) more music like this

by Funkadelic

Funkadelic's major-label jump brought its version of life more into line with Parliament, though the crucial difference between the two -- Funkadelic's guitars vs. Parliament's horns -- remains intact. Eddie Hazel is missed, as always, but Gary Shider and Mike Hampton do fine work. Whoever peels off the concluding solo at the end of "Comin' Round ...

Uncle Jam Wants You

Uncle Jam Wants You (1979) more music like this

by Funkadelic

Almost as if Clinton and company wanted to atone for parts of One Nation Under a Groove, Uncle Jam Wants You takes not merely a more daring musical approach but a more forthright political stance. The cover art alone is brilliant, front and back showing Clinton in Huey P. Newton's famous Black Panther pose. The main goal is the cover subtitle's ...

The Electric Spanking of War Babies

The Electric Spanking of War Babies (1981) more music like this

by Funkadelic

With George Clinton, a humorous phrase could be nothing more than playful tomfoolery, or it could be a double entendre with a deep political meaning. The phrase "electric spanking of war babies" falls into the latter category -- it referred to what the funk innovator saw as the U.S. government using the media to promote imperialistic wars. To ...

Let's Take It to the Stage

Let's Take It to the Stage (1975) more music like this

by Funkadelic

One of Funkadelic's goofiest releases, Let's Take It to the Stage also contains more P-Funk all-time greats as well, making for a grand balance of the serious and silly. Perhaps the silliest is at the end -- there's not much else one can call the extended oompah/icing rink start of "Atmosphere." The title track is as much a call to arms as "Free ...

Funk Classics: The 70's, Vol. 2

Funk Classics: The 70's, Vol. 2 (1998) more music like this

by Various Artists

A strong collection of '70s funk jams that will liven any party. The track lengths are inconsistent: Funkadelic's "Not Just Knee Deep" (15:08) escaped the chopping block, but others, like Rick James' "You and I," are edited radio versions. Selections include Instant Funk's "I Got My Mind Made Up," B. T. Express' "Do It Til You're Satisfied," and ...

The Funk Box

The Funk Box (2000) more music like this

by Various Artists

At four discs and 55 tracks, Hip-O's Funk Box seems to want to be the last word on funk, and while it's a pretty good set, it ends up more representative than definitive of its chosen genre. Virtually all of funk's most important artists are featured, but not always by their most significant singles -- sometimes the collection gets it right, and ...

Tales of Kidd Funkadelic

Tales of Kidd Funkadelic (1976) more music like this

by Funkadelic

Some leftover jams, songs, and funk pieces from the Funkadelic era. George Clinton was in the midst of moving Funkadelic to another label, and the Westbound folk released a bunch of vault material to get another Funkadelic album on the market. There were still some fine cuts, but the random element prevented it from being a great album because it ...

Maggot Brain

Maggot Brain (1971) more music like this

by Funkadelic

It starts with a crackle of feedback shooting from speaker to speaker and a voice intoning, "Mother Earth is pregnant for the third time, for y'all have knocked her up" and talking about rising "above it all or drown in my own sh*t." This could only have been utterly bizarre back in 1971 and it's no less so decades later; though the Mothership was ...

Who's a Funkadelic?

Who's a Funkadelic? (1981) more music like this

by Funkadelic

First released on LP in 1981 as Connections & Disconnections and reissued on CD in 1992 as Who's a Funkadelic?, this album went down in history as the only Funkadelic project that George Clinton had nothing whatsoever to do with. Many funksters were quick to dismiss this album, questioning its authenticity and arguing that the band had no right to ...

Funkadelic (1970) more music like this

by Funkadelic

Funkadelic's self-titled 1970 debut is one of the group's best early- to mid-'70s albums. Not only is it laden with great songs -- "I'll Bet You" and "I Got a Thing..." are obvious highlights -- but it retains perhaps a greater sense of classic '60s soul and R&B than any successive George Clinton-affiliated album. Recording for the Detroit-based ...

Standing on the Verge of Getting It On [Bonus Tracks] (2005) more music like this

by Funkadelic

Expanding back out to a more all-over-the-place lineup -- about 15 or so people this time out -- Funkadelic got a bit more back on track with Standing on the Verge. Admittedly, George Clinton repeats a trick from America Eats Its Young via another re-recording of an Osmium track, namely leadoff cut "Red Hot Mama." However, starting as it does with ...

The Whole Funk & Nothing But the Funk: Definitive Funkadelic 1976-1981 (2005) more music like this

by Funkadelic

The two-CD anthology The Whole Funk & Nothing but the Funk: Definitive Funkadelic 1976-1981 draws more or less equally from the four albums that Funkadelic put out on Warner Brothers between 1976 and 1981, as well as including live versions of "Cosmic Slop" (recorded at a 1976 tour rehearsal) and "Maggot Brain" (source undisclosed), and ...

By Way of the Drum (2007) more music like this

by Funkadelic

To a certain degree, you can say that Funkadelic's By Way of the Drum is a kin to Prince's The Black Album -- it's a completed album that was shelved, and it seemed like it would never see the light of day. The story goes something like this: in the mid-'80s, Funkadelic completed the album for MCA Records, who then rejected the release, before ...

Free Your Mind...And Your Ass Will Follow [Bonus Tracks] (2005) more music like this

by Funkadelic

It's one of the best titles in modern musical history, for song and for album, and as a call to arms mentally and physically the promise of funk was never so perfectly stated. If it were just a title then there'd be little more to say, but happily, Free Your Mind lives up to it throughout as another example of Funkadelic getting busy and taking ...

Tom Joyner Presents: Old School Mix (1999) more music like this

by Various Artists

Around 1994, urban contemporary DJ Tom Joyner hired Steve "Silk" Hurley to provide "old school mixes" for his popular Tom Joyner Morning Show; and by old school, he meant the classic soul, funk, and disco of the late '70s and early '80s. To be sure, Hurley was perfect for the job; he had played an indispensable role in house music, and his ...

New Millennium Funk Party gathers 20 of the most popular funk singles, including the Ohio Players' "Fire," the Staple Singers' "Respect Yourself," Marvin Gaye's "Got to Give it Up, Pt. 1," and Curtis Mayfield's "Freddie's Dead." Though this isn't Rhino's most creative or extensive funk compilation -- the label's In Yo' Face! series is much more in ...

A double album and worth every minute of it, America Eats Its Young makes for a freaky, funky, and aware good time.

With George Clinton credited only for arranging and producing, ...

Cosmic Slop (1973) more music like this

With a much more stripped-down version of the band, if the credits are to be believed (five regular members total, not counting any vocalists), Funkadelic continued its way through life with Cosmic Slop. A slightly more scattershot album than the group's other early efforts, with generally short tracks (only two break the five-minute barrier) and ...
