It was Halloween night and Parliament Funkadelic was about to tear the roof off the
Houston Summit, ready to bless the crowd with their cosmic brew of interplanetary
funk. George Clinton, Bernie Worrell, Bootsy Collins and the rest of the P-Funk
collective were riding the success of their first Top 5 R&B hit, "Give Up The Funk (Tear
The Roof Off The Sucker)," a track that had earned them the kind of radio play that
would bring the masses out to see them live in a stadium-sized arena. The group was
only five dates into the tour when they arrived in Houston, but they were definitely
ready to take it to the stage for an out-of-this-world show like no other.
Taped on October 31, 1976, these seldom-seen performances at the Houston Summit
represent Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic in their ʼ70s prime, in the era of their
Mothership Connection and The Clones Of Dr. Funkenstein LPs-a rare opportunity
for everyone to get their proper dose of The P-Funk.

Don't let the costumes and theatrical skits fool you, these guy's are all critically acclaimed musicians at the top of their game. Listen 🎶 to the work!
You're absolutely 1000% correct
Yes indeed for sure 🎼🎶🎵🎸🎤💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥💥💥🔥💥✊🏿
Without question. 💯
That's all part of the P-Funk/Funkadelic world they created. Your step into their world when you listen to their music and go to their concerts. Total immersive funk where one nation is under a groove 🤘
@@fiveandtens The sad thing about it they could have made 100 times more $$$ if GC would have patent their music. However, they put on some helluva shows.
I'm 65 years old I saw this live concert in 1976 at the Cleveland Ohio coliseum I was 19 years old in my life I was blessed to see great entertainment like Marvin Gaye, Luther Vandross Teddy Pendergrass even the Isley Brothers even Barry White, but Funkadelic Parliament live in 1976 is a performance I'll never forget " unbelievable ".
Me in Philly and I'm 69..Happy New Year, I hope🕛🎉
Pure Truth 💯
Saw them at MSG NYC 76 P-FUNK Earth Tour I was 17 the greatest show ever. 🤘🏿
I was 12 and at that same concert in Cleveland. 🔥🔥🔥
Saw Parliament MANY times in Chicago. Always a pleasure.
my mans busted out one of the nastiest guitar solo ive ever heard all while wearing a pinata on his head now thats tufffff
Lol 😂
fuck yeahhhh
oh yeaaahh
Mesmerizing
Destroyed it!!!!
Houston, Texas 1976 front row seats right in the middle. Best concert ever Eddie Hazel, Ray Davis, Bernie Worrell Glen Goins and most of all George Clinton I never will forget (A true Funkateer)
Eddie wasn't in this concert. it's Michael Hampton
The level of musicianship on that stage is unbelievable.

The Pentagram
Sound a little like PRINCE? He loved these funky brothers. .
Man if Hendrix could've lived long enough to make special guest appearances with these guys and just jam out on songs like this. This was 1976. Hendrix would've only been 33.
Amen amen. If Jimi could have walked in on this and jammed. The earth would have skipped a turn!
the universe is not big enough for that event !
The real question is if Hendrix would have joined parliament? Even if for one album like Eddie Hazel, it would have been the greatest album to ever fucking exist
I've literally pinned Hendrix and Clinton together as part of my dream supergroup
@Free Spirit really???? When though???? Was it recorded?????😙
Jesus christ, one of the greatest funk AND rock bands ever
Eddie hazel was a great guitarist
This was during an age when music and musicians were appreciated for their talents 😄🤔💓💯💥
Micheal and Gary switching leads and playing together just solidifies this performance's place in music history.

@@mdsideshow1that is not Eddie. Michael 'Kidd Funkadelic' Hampton
One of the best guitars playing i have heard
Holy cow! Never heard (or seen) Funkadelic before - Hendrix and YT algorithms sent me here... I'm deeply grateful.
Whenever they invent time travel I'm going back to the 70s to go to a Parliament/Funkadelic concert..lol
You might not make it back.
I wanna go too😉
I went to one when I was 6 or 7, but ain't get to see the Mother Ship land🤬
AMEN Robert.....I'm going back wit ya Bruh....
Look me up please
As a sixty year old white English Man I must say that was .... Beautiful. Thanks. God bless the queen. God bless funk.
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿🎸🎼👍🏾✌🏿
That Bass Line Is insanely Mad Thumping
He look so majestic in that hat playing that solo
The cosmic slop version is the best live version of this song still jamming this in 2022 !! 😎
Me to l practice to this song on my drums
and in 2023 pending forever!!!
Yessssss! 💥🔥💥🔥💥🔥🎼🎵🎶🎸🎸🎸
The one from Capitol Theater is very cool too , black and white film , i think from 76.
The 70s were the peak with bands like Parliament. They straddled and moved effortlessly between funk, rock, soul.
Blues too if you listen to their "Mommy, What's A Funkadelic?" album.
They ruled the 70's😊
Mind blowing version of this song. It's perfection.
the houston 1976 live version of this tune is the best. i'd rather see garry shider in a loin cloth rather than a diaper though.
Ya I'm still here off the FUCKING chain AMEN
I'm a white guy and I always said they are the best funk band of all time ! My brothers always hated coming home from school because I had this music blasting !!! My youngest brother
started to listen to this and he loved it!!!
We are all brothers brother.
great music is great music......
Why does it matter if you’re white?
This is as deep as the Funk gets, perhaps the deepest.
The P Funk...
B.M. ………….its in the abyss ,with Rick James, I think Charley Murphy would agree !!!!!!!
Perhaps brother
You ain't never lied!
Nah... It gets deeper
In the 70s we had some of the best weed and music and we knew how to have a good time thanks
Best weed, I don't think so. Best music 100% for sure. Don't forget the tabs.
@razthesnail5277 we had the best music for sure, well weed. Colombian Red, Colombian Gold both called "Bo" Jamaican pot it was green in color and the Mexican pot was brown. Pot gave you one helluva buzz
Head bobbing with that wicked hat on, while masterfully playing that guitar and riding on the groove in another dimensions is timeless‼️
Eddie was da man....
@@mdsideshow1 that’s Michael Hampton on guitar
Agreed.....
The sound is INSANE on this recording. Drum cymbals are crisp with a nice warm snare and the bass drum is solid hitting as a heart attack. The bass is nasty and funky, every thumb lick heard. Guitars are raw and electric, ringing out every decibel. Seriously sounds like this thing was recorded yesterday on top notch equipment. It has an amazing sound without being overprocessed.
this is my favorite version of their song, the one i have in my car :)
Stars to Remember
Deetroiter Drums courtesy of Jerome “Big Foot” Brailey and bass courtesy of Rodney “Skeet” Curtiss. These two plus Bernie Worrell are holding the earth in orbit around the sun with their performances!
h2junkey Rodney “Skeet” Curtis was not the Bassist on this gig it was Cordell ”Boggie” Mosson.
@@robertbright-jc3sd Sho' nuff
What the fuck is that playing that lead guitar. Unrealistic talent. He had to come off the mothership!!!!
That was the great Michael "Kids Funkadelic" Hampton
don't let all the clown suits fool you...this song, this band, George Clinton were as deep as the ocean.
dee rasta
That’s afro-futurism man!
@@165Dash indeed Mike Hampton was kicking ass every night at this time
@Tony Euphoria yes funkadeluc was playing that pure hardcore rock sounding like they came from behind the plantation they had something the white groups lacked even though the Allman brothers, lynard skybard, and cc and r was heavy in that southern rock thing they didn't sound like funkadelic or band of gypsies
I was holloween!!!!!!!
chris edwards FACTS!!!
Think about it, you got funk,rock,jazz,gospel all rolled into one hot ass jam that takes you on a journey and then the mothership brings you back so exhausted.
I'm 23, found the funk a lil bit before this Pandemic started.. Listen, i'm not turning back now. 😂😂😂 This shit is next level to my ears
True been funkin for about 50 yrs
SAME BROTHAAAAAA
FUNK ON
I know exactly what you mean by next level that's how we felt when these albums by Parliament Funkadelic were first coming out in 70s when I was a kid I'm 52 now LOL I remember getting these albums by this group back then when all this was new and it was like new level shit to us then never heard anything like that back then they were way ahead of their time
Found 64 yrs ago and have not look back !!! This Right Hear
Jazz, Blues, Country and Western, Rock, Soul, Funk, Rap, Hip Hop. A legacy of music that from a magnificent culture. That is felt and heard worldwide and America is blessed because of it.
Parliament-Funkadelic was and is, the greatest band ever. Nothing or no one comes close to this 🎤🎵🎶🎼🎻🎹🎷🎺🎸
Truth!!!!
Period!!!!!!!
100%
no, they were the greatest funk and acid funk band ever. the greatest all out band using musicianship, vocality, tightness and synchronization was ew & fire. parliment can out funk ew& fire, but ew & fire can out everything else to parliment.
george clinton vs maurice white. think about it.
Ya damn right. P-FUNK Y'ALL 🤘🏿
ONE OF THE MOST EPIC SONGS EVER COMPOSED!
I can't stop watching this
These guys truly were on their own planet.
It was the 70's, you could create whatever you wanted with music.
Anthything goes.
Just bring your own voices and instruments and be original.
Wish it were like that again.
One hell of a decade for music.
Yep I agree, I was there the same year when they came to Mobile Al. Same show they were out of this world GOOD!!!
And be real about it
We will never see another group like Parliament Funkadelic in our life
The best I can describe Michael Hampton is, He's holding something thats trying to get away. The guitar is under complete control, it just doesn't know it. Incredible!!!!1
Mike was hardcore jollies
One of the best live videos,head phones on,volume to the max...And I am 63...👿💞
Fuzzy Haskins & Gary Shider, epic vocal blending. Fortunate to have seen them live at the top of their game. RIP
Thanks Funk God,I was 10 when I was introduced to Funk.Olympia Stadium Detroit 1976...
@@carloshoward8845 I was 22 when I watched the MShip land at the Spectrum in Philly, there was shootout ( 1 killed) and nobody left the concert
always loved them...74 now , STILL LOVE IT...FUNKY love
Pam B Yes mama🎤🙏🏼🥰
Space people....universal love. SPACE PEOPLE universal love! This touches your very soul. Funkateer until the pine box. (is that my mother calling) lol
So glad I’ve had the privilege of seeing this band play several times.
And everytime the mothership would land George would step out and say fire it up didn't have to till me twice 🤣🤣
I remember this particular concert. My parents didn't let me attend. It was both my 1st year in Jr. high school and as a new teenager. Now, after enjoying this video some 40 yrs later, I am highly pisses at the parents.
Your parents knew drugs are going on during the concert and 2 protect u.
tucanphos. Dont ever take advice from your parents nor listen to them. You wil when it comes to MUSIC,MONEY & WOMEN. Not in that order. but most of all the ALMIGHTY!! U see the MOTHERSHIP here. They`ve returned to: "RECLAIM THE PYRAMIDS!! Thats what GC says & I believe him!!!
@Carl Allen Sure did! I don’t blame them
43 years later ... and this shit is still ahead of its time.
Michael Hampton is one of the greatest unsung guitarists ever to do it. Watch his fret work and the body language. Just incredible.
Exactly! We invented music. Btw the TIGHTEST musicians ever r on this stage right now. 🎸🔥🎤🎼💞🎹💖👀😎😎😎
Eddie Hazel
ikr - in all these years of watching and listening to PFunk live I can't ever recall a single instance when I heard Kidd Funkadelic make a mistake on guitar! His right hand picking technique is incredible.
Fo Sho
hwilmore EDDIE HAZELL
Greatest band in history. Good God the funk is dripping from the ceiling...
GARY SHIDER bad man BOOGIE killin bass FUNKADELIC
William Manders. When can I start??
Sorry wrong message
Chills
William Manders 🤘🏽never dies it just multiply 💯
For a people to invent such a powerful genre of music as funk less than 100 years after 246 years of slavery is absolutely amazing…
When did 400 years of slavery occur? I suppose if you include the 100s of years maybe more Africans enslaved other Africans (since you are mentioning blacks only). And how unimaginative to think slaves did not pass down and author beautiful music.
yawn
Silly comment, really.
TO: LARRY COBB,
SPEAK ON IT !!
MY BROTHER!!
As an Afro Cuban discovering all of the amazing black talent from the past can I just say thank you for giving the world you soul in music. This will never be forgotten!
I can admit this now, but back in the day, when P-Funk was at its peak, I could not afford to go to the concerts. What an incredible thing, that after all of these years that I can now see what I missed. Breaks my heart a little. Being old is so much different than being young. But , man....., at least I am getting to see it. must have been glorious to be there.
I can't stop watching this. It's just incredible.
Those brothers playing those guitars like they're making love to the last woman on Earth😂. So underrated
That's same guitarist playing that intro, Eddie Hazel, his most famous guitar solo, the song "Maggot Brain", was conceived when George Clinton asked to him to "play like your mother just died"
@@dxwallace55 this the shit comics slop
@@dxwallace55 Nope - not Eddie; it’s Mike Hampton aka Kid Funkadelic.
Dam that's deep. Great souls
@@dinibell I disagree respectfully [we not talking politics], That it was well know back in the day that's what George said to the original composer, Eddie Hazel. Kid Funkadelic was not the original composer/recorder of Maggot brain, though he is most known for playing the solo . Kid Funkadelic did not start playing with the band until 1975, Maggot Brain was recorded in 1971. Not trying to argue the point, but I for the sake of 50th Anniversary of Maggot Brain, just clarifying
This band, widely hailed as the progenitors of Psycho-Funk, was one of the hardest-rocking units of their day.
Can you believe this ?? I saw and heard it with my own eye's and ears , i had to go to back to back concerts to see all this . I loved every minute , amazing ! Yes you had to be ready for the Mothership !!!🔥🔥🔥🌟🌟🌟 starchild .
This gave me chills. One of the best bands ever.
During this time there was nothing like a Parliament Funkadelic concert on the face of the Earth
2021 still listening to him shred that axe play with the best of them fo sho!!!!✊🏼🤘🏽
This is absolutely otherworldly. So much respect for Gary Shider RIP
Now this is real music!✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Mike P FUNK SHOWS and
Hendrix lives
❤️🖤💚🎼🖤🎵🎵🎵🎵🎵🤗👊🏿🤗👊🏿🤗
when I die and my soul is flying through dimensions, I want this to be all I hear
This is probably the best version of the song, I wish there's an edited audio where Garry's solo also can be heard.
I've always thought it was a shame that a lot of rock fans miss out on parliament Funkadelic.
Not the smart ones!
Its probably a lot of rock fans keeping this funk alive
Don't be fooled, you better believe they were watching and trying to imitate!
@@jameskagg5127 I'm sure flea from Red Hot Chili Peppers was looking and listening
Naw glad they did miss out and the next thing u know the record company want them to make crossover music. Let it be FUNKY
That funky ass green hat tho! Watched this concert too many times to count.. been hooked ever since.
Reminds me of the Muppets.
I've watched this clip over a thousand times....Parliament should have a won a Grammy for this. If you know and played music live ....you will know the reason why?
They have an award greater than a grammy , they have Our award of A Beautiful Timeless Classic.
yes, the perfection deserves a Grammy :)
They’ve won our hearts!
They're too good for Grammy.
That musik was outa realm for some fake ass awards no awards can compare to this reptillianfunckdemonologyisticparlimentalsortafromsomeplaceelse.🤔
I've seen this concert many times, and I've finally come to this conclusion: George was the mastermind, Bernie was the musical genius/prodigy, but Garry Shider was the heart and soul of Parliament Funkadelic. When he joins in with Fuzzy on that "Spaaaace people"... sends chills every time. Greatest band of all time IMO.
Exactly!
INDEED 🤘🏾P-FUNKIN, FOREVER 🎼❤️
You hit the nail on the head!
Definitely the greatest band ever.
I grew up with them PF from the beginning late sixties BMF ever
This band is the definition of UNDERRATED!!!
Absolutely stellar performance. Uncompromising and brutally honest. One of the most heartbreaking songs ever recorded on vinyl.
I grew up with it and we hadn't heard anything like it ever before. It was wild and exciting and everybody who was into rock guitar also ran to the store to buy the Funkadelic album. It took years before they got the recognition they deserved. These guys were pioneers changing musical history. Geniuses.
I can barely stand how much this is the greatest. I cannot stop watching it. I love it more now than I did 30 years ago.
This is a masterpiece and a masterpiece performance.
wow i just discovered this incredible piece of music,i'm spun out.
The best in black funk/ Rock and Roll 👍🎼🎤🎩🎶🎵
The Mothership Connection goes to ‘11’ and beyond brother, even in 2021! We want the funk!!!!!
Can you imagine being the band that had to follow PFunk on stage?
No. I couldn't! Lol
I once saw the Time follow the Ohio Players at a concert...and although I love both groups,and the Time gets busy,I bet it might have felt like that question you just posed.
The band would have to go above and beyond what P-Funk does on stage...an impossible feat 😎🤘
I've seen a lot of Parliament/Funkadelic concerts they either headlined or they were the only group.
Parliament Funk Adelic always closed the show and played for hours!
Michael has it all showmanship, body language, technical and feel. you can't ask for a better guitarist
That's Eddie hazel not Hampton
@@gregteddywilliams2792 in the video? its definitely hampton, who is light-skinned. his playing is tighter and mechanistic compared to eddies fluid & improvisational style
@@ngang1957 Kid Funkadelic. it is.
@@gregteddywilliams2792 that's Mike Hampton ☝️
@@ngang1957 Did you mean the term mechanistic in negative connotations? Been around comment sections that just seem to mean that in the bad way 😅
One of my favorite jams of all time, it never gets old, I can listen to it for hrs @a time , I'm so glad these jams were 12 to 18 min long
Agreed. This makes about 10 times today🤣
Best live version of this song EVER!
Funkadelic. Revolutionary and unapologetic. Legendary live shows. Albums still considered collectors' items. I will always be in awe and a fan.
These guys were the greatest musicians I've ever seen in my life tremendous.....
i'm so jealous of all you guys who were present at this legendary night.
Thank god they've visited my country at least once.
WOW ! This Live in Concert COSMIC SLOP is INCREDIBLE !
That drumming drives me craaaazy!! The quality of sound here is so goooooooood, man. It's so gooooood!!

To the top. In other words the Hood

Flawless lyrics, singers, musicians...George Clinton is the G.O.A.T.!
THAT HAT!!!
Wicked!
Talent at its best...... he rocks the sh!t out of that guitar!!
would that be diaperman or the one in the wicked hat. they're both good.
Simply put one of greatest musical history ever made ,masters in their class , on a different plane
They played in Denver 1975 on Halloween and it was a true treat... best concert of all times.
Probably one of the best live performances ever.
ever!!!!!!!
I have no idea how many times I've listened to, and wished I'd have been born early enough to attend, and appreciate this music. So good, so solid from beginning to end. Garry Shider, Glen Goins, George....the entire group.
Fleets with sly..dance to the music..
" BLACKNESS" in its truest form!!!!
Blackness has been subverted man (ok and whiteness) -- let's get it back on track brothers and sisters of the planet.
There is a distinct lack of black rock bands in the world!
@@thomascristo1819 fact
Unapologetically!!! ✊🏿
One of the best stage bands ever!!
Michael Hampton made some sweet music on that guitar! Nuff said!
Absolute beast of a performance
That cat on guitar ain't playin'.....He is, but he ain't...............He IS "handling his business!
Truth!!!!
Funkn' forever 2021, the best start right now
I REMEMBER THAT NIGHT BACK IN 1976, I WAS HOME ON LEAVE FROM THE MILITARY. DEFINITELY A NIGHT TO REMEMBER!
Nelson Coy you was there to witness this??
Gott damn!!! That boy is killing that guitar.....this is what Real Live MUSIC sounds like.
Handling his business
This musical talent and mixtures of vibe and rhythm is hypnotic and takes you to another planet if you listen to the deepness of the rhythm and the funk.
Man, now that's music, they tore the roof off the mother with that one!!!!!
i've been looking for this music all my life, nothing gets me like funkadelic
i love this band.............they bring it................damn
For ever will the funk remain
I saw my first Parliament Funkadelic concert when I was 10 in Detroit. Mothership Connection concert Olympia Stadium. I grew up loving their music. Great way to grow up.
Such a heart-felt guitar solo!
The ultimate mother's day tribute
A CHILLING PERFORMANCE. I have listened to it a thousand times and it never fails...
Off the rip! Just blazing it! 0:21 🎸🎸🎸⚡⚡🤟🏿⚡!!! This shit sound so damn good. Cosmic slop live? Damn! 1st time I ever heard this shit... wow!⚡🎸🥁🎹🎼🎵🎶🎙
July 1,2023 I have watched this video at least 20 times and I see the best band ever to step foot on a stage. George Clinton, P-funk forever.
