That WHOLE DAMN ALBUM SSSSMMMMMOOOOOOOKKKES ! Red Hot Mama, Alice In My Fantasies, Sexy Ways, Jimmy's Got A Little Bit o Bitch in Him, Standing On etc, Hazel's playing on it is Godlike...
Maggot Brain is their seminal funk jazz classic. They played a free, public show in Buffalo about 10 years ago. It ranks up there with the other great shows on my list. Truly a joy to listen to their musical alchemy!
"Make my funk the P-Funk, I want my funk uncut". Going to see Parliament-Funkadelic at the end of May, and I can't wait. This will be concert number five for me with this group. The best show was 7/5/96 at the Summer Stage in Central Park NYC, when Mr. William "Bootsy" Collins showed up with the Bassiest Bass I have ever heard. There were at least 25 musicians on stage at one point, and total Funkicization of the crowd. This show was known as The Mothership Reunion, where they brought back the "Mothership", and everyone got on.
I was at that one. I saw a crazy show 4/20/95 or 96 at Hamilton College in upstate NY. We didn’t have tickets but one of the girls we were with drew the hand stamp they were using on our hands with a marker and it somehow worked. Before (during?) the show, this kid we were with was bragging that he was about to go backstage and sell George a bag of herb. When he got back there, George checked out his shit (it was nice) and them had security escort him out of the backstage area without giving him any cash 💀 😅
The great Buddy Miles guesting on drums! He was a solo artist and famously was was the drummer with Jimi Hendrix and bassist Billy Cox in the "Band Of Gypsys"! (This was Jimi's return to his Funk/Soul/R&B roots! This was a live album recorded December 31 & January 1, 1970 in NYC at the Fillmore east. This whole album is iconic and deserves a listen! The 2 standout tracks on this are "Machine Gun" and "Who Knows?") Lead guitar on this track was the highly underrated and mostly unknown to the mainstream, Eddie Hazel! He and also underrated Michael Hampton tag teamed on cerrain tracks.
I was a P-Funk All-Star back in high school, I had the album you're playing. I see somebody recommended Maggot Brain, there is a good Parliament and Funkadelic performance on TH-cam, Cosmic Slop live in Houston 1976. As George Clinton would say, the Bigger the Headache the Bigger the Pill.
One funk after another with these guys! For some outstanding guitar work Maggot Brain (Eddie Hazel), is a must listen!! Thanks for yet another great reaction!
Buddy Miles was a part of Jimi Hendrix's Band Of Gypsys. More P-Funk: "Atomic Dog", "Maggotbrain", "Flashlight", "Psychoalphadiscobetabioaquadoloop" and "Cosmic Slop".
Buddy Miles played with Hendrix in Band of Gypsies particularly noteworthy in the track "Machine Gun" where he added some vocals. Also did the drums on "Rainy day Dream Away" on the Electric Ladyland album.
Had to step out after America. I really wanted to shine a "Flashlight" on George Clinton and his many configurations and collaborations. But unfortunately, I'm a "Maggotbrain" and got lost in the "Cosmic Slop"! Peace, Love, and Phunk!!!
Ned from Spain saying Oh Lee...Lee....When you get up onto the deep n dazzlin P-Funk train you're on board for a freaky ride They are different from other bands in that they could stretch the songs into weird beautiful perfectly imperfect shapes, get your ass shakin and pick up the trail where James Brown and Hendrix left off. They started as a doo wop band The Parliaments then got bit by RnR and some LSD and became Parliament. Their 1st LP "Osmium" reissued as "Rhenium", then switched the name to Funkadelic and then kept both as two heads of the same wicked beast. Almost to 15k and still growing. Good luck
The collective known variously as Funkadelic, Parliament and P-Funk through their history redefined funk under the leadership of George Clinton, who also released a number of 'solo' albums. If you enjoyed the guitar work, you should also check out their epic track Maggot Brain, the more recent deep-cut, Sick 'Em, (which is basically a six minute guitar work out) and Quickie from one of George's solo albums which has an absolutely killer guitar solo. For the funkiness, check out One Nation Under A Groove (preferably the live version on the P-Funk All-Stars album Live at the Beverley Theater in Hollywood) and another George Clinton solo number, Do Fries Go With That Shake, which has an absolute monster of a bass line.
I love your Frank art on your wall I don’t know how many vans and bikes had murals on them in my day. I had friend who had a book of his work I use drool over. Would love a Death Dealer tattoo on my back. But 66 yo skin don’t take ink that well ha or anything else😂
Saw George Clinton & The P-Funk All Stars a couple times. They always bring it. Ween has a great tribute song for Eddie Hazel. Check out "A Tear for Eddie" when you get a chance.
If you hear any noise It's just me and the boys Hit me, you gotta hit the band. Parliament\Funkadelic is a very rich vein to mine. Start with Maggot Brain - very Hendrix-esque.
Tiki Fulwood is Hall of Fame drummer. The whole band, really. But he’s considered top 10 drummers by drummers! I LOVE FUNKADELIC/PARLIAMENT!! We want the P-FUNK!! I took my brother to George Clinton’s P-Funk All-Star tour. What an event. Give it up for Buddy Miles then! Drummer for my favorite band The Band of Gypsys with Jimi Hendrix. Rock on!!
Funk was awesome until a bunch of people with no talent high jacked it and created disco so you took the best of Funk and cut it down to 3 minute songs that people would dance to.
Buddy miles from bsnd of gypsies on drums for this track On guitar is the legendary Eddie hazel You should listen to. Eddies album game, Danes abd guitar thangs and his posthumous release rest in p
Overall, the group had come a long way from the psychedelic funk-jazz of "Maggot Brain" - until Eddie Hazel rips into that echo-laden guitar solo - and you know they hadn't forgotten those roots, just grown into a broader thing with many good sides! I do agree with many comments below - Eddie never got the credit he deserved - I suspect mostly because the roots of Parliament / Funkadelic were never guitar-driven like rock is - doo-wop, soul: R&B is more guitar-centered at times, but even there, the guitar is more often used as a rhythm instrument than for melodic leads. The P-Funk Collective is pretty much the only group(s) within that genre that used guitars as a melodic lead - and even they had pulled back from that by the release of "One Nation Under A Groove" in '78 ...

@L33Reacts I humbly suggest you react to other songs in the Parliament-Funkadelic Universe: "Funkentelechy", "I'll Stay", "Standing On The Verge Of Getting It On", "Freak of The Week", "What's A Telephone Bill?" by Bootsy Collins, "Never Buy Texas From A Cowboy" by The Brides of Funkenstein, "Grooveallegiance", to name a few besides the ones everyone reacts to Like Maggot Brain, Cosmic Slop, One Nation Under A Groove, Atomic Dog Outside the P-Funk Universe there's: "Machine Gun" by Jimi Hendrix & the Band of Gypsys featuring Buddy Miles on Drums, - but the LP version because that was a concert on New Year's Eve 1969-New Year's Day 1970 so 2 versions were played and I prefer the one on the LP ( see th-cam.com/video/bNVGWSnPwII/w-d-xo.htmlsi=uXJhpIbBspuXV_YI ), also "Power of Soul" on the same LP, "Fencewalk" by Mandrill, "Beautiful Seven" by Osibisa, "The JB's Monaurail" and "Blow Your Mind" by James Browns band the JB's, "Soul Sacrifice" by Santana live at Woodstock '69 are but a few! Rock on young-un!
Standing On the Verge of Getting It On. A Funkadelic Song so funky, you have to move, you are forced.

They are up there as one of my favorite shows, also!!

I saw them just once at the 9:30 Club in DC and I still maintain it was one of the best I have seen!
I caught Bootsy at The Bottom of the Hill in SF!

F*cking love that album! My dad has the LP. We still have it! Message to Love is my favourite on that album and Machine Gun!

Buddy Miles 🥁 🔥
The psychedelic period was the first three funkadelic albums plus the osmium album by parliament
One funk after another with these guys! For some outstanding guitar work Maggot Brain (Eddie Hazel), is a must listen!! Thanks for yet another great reaction!

I will have to check those out. He was so groovy here! Shit was amazing lol

Yes funkadelic!! You just have to react to Maggot Brain by them..seldom played but its 🔥 💞✌️
I saw that when I was looking this one up! Definitely gonna give it a listen
@@L33Reacts you da man!!!!💕✌️
Check out “Lampoc Boogie” by Eddie Hazel also with Buddy Miles on drums
I'll add it to the list! Thank you for the suggestion. I think I have an Eddie hazel video coming soon 👀
Funkadelic, nice. Well then I'm sure we'll get to Parliament. Maybe some Ohio Players, and of course, Earth, Wind & Fire. Congratulations on 15K.
Saw George Clinton & The P-Funk All Stars a couple times. They always bring it. Ween has a great tribute song for Eddie Hazel. Check out "A Tear for Eddie" when you get a chance.
If you hear any noise
It's just me and the boys
Hit me, you gotta hit the band.
Parliament\Funkadelic is a very rich vein to mine. Start with Maggot Brain - very Hendrix-esque.
Tiki Fulwood is Hall of Fame drummer. The whole band, really. But he’s considered top 10 drummers by drummers!
I LOVE FUNKADELIC/PARLIAMENT!! We want the P-FUNK!!
I took my brother to George Clinton’s P-Funk All-Star tour. What an event.
Give it up for Buddy Miles then! Drummer for my favorite band The Band of Gypsys with Jimi Hendrix. Rock on!!
Jimmy Calhoun on bass.
If you like that. Try Tower of Power. What is Hip is my fave.
Funk was awesome until a bunch of people with no talent high jacked it and created disco so you took the best of Funk and cut it down to 3 minute songs that people would dance to.
Don’t agree with that. Let the man hear some and decide for himself. If you like a good groove then disco has plenty to go around.
Buddy miles from bsnd of gypsies on drums for this track
On guitar is the legendary Eddie hazel
You should listen to. Eddies album game, Danes abd guitar thangs and his posthumous release rest in p

No one listens to me..
I said don't let him near Parliament/Funkadelic.....

Outside the P-Funk Universe there's: "Machine Gun" by Jimi Hendrix & the Band of Gypsys featuring Buddy Miles on Drums, - but the LP version because that was a concert on New Year's Eve 1969-New Year's Day 1970 so 2 versions were played and I prefer the one on the LP ( see th-cam.com/video/bNVGWSnPwII/w-d-xo.htmlsi=uXJhpIbBspuXV_YI ), also "Power of Soul" on the same LP, "Fencewalk" by Mandrill, "Beautiful Seven" by Osibisa, "The JB's Monaurail" and "Blow Your Mind" by James Browns band the JB's, "Soul Sacrifice" by Santana live at Woodstock '69 are but a few!

Cosmic Slop 1979
Hey react to Field Maneuvers by Funkadelic
There was some "good" disco. Lol. Seriously good music is good no matter what type. Can't beleive a rocker like me can even admit to liking this. Lmao
