I feel you!! Glenn's voice was so raw! Damn shame he left us so soon. And so young. I believe he was only 24 or 25 maybe(?). He had so much more funk to give us. Aint no telling what else he could have given us with his talent.
I played this in the car while riding w/ my grandmother and great aunt and they loved it. I told them about Glen Goins and his passing so young. My great aunt interpreted the song as Glen having a premonition about his passing and conversing with his mom and letting her know that he'll be alright. My grandma thought he was consoling his mom, saying he's just hanging with friends and he's fine. Proof that good music always touches the soul,mind and spirit in many ways Fly on Brother! R.I.P. Mr. Goins
yeah , i think so to and i like a LOT of different genres and styles of music ! From hendrix to house From hip hop to thunderdome/Hardcore From Funk to Goa trance But funkadelic.. Biggest baddest motherfunkers to walk this planet (Hendrix/David Gilmour an dJohn Frusciante are my gods tho) but that doesn't take away that i truelly think this was the baddest group ever
I'm doing a piece of art of funkadelic as we speak and I'm going to paint his ass twice in that art I'm going to find a spot I have never heard nobody sing like that effortlessly yes totally agree
How many times I’ve thought...of only I had been born 20 years earlier...this show is banging from beginning to end.. Cosmic Slop as that opener just setting that tone...Mmmm crank the shit out of it in the desert at night. Let Eddie scream.
TeeAbrafo Glenn Goins was special his voice was a gift God gave him. He sang and played in church as a youngster. This song is like a church funk song.
Glen Goines entire family was musical especially his sister Debra. The younger brother Kevin was just getting started when his brother died an timely death!!! At any rate, George Clinton was a superb musician but when Glen left he took that soulful sound with him! I feel in love with him without ever meeting him in person. I still love you Glen!!!!
Im am so thankful I was there in person to see this concert,.didnt realize I was witnessing history being made then,.that night I wasnt realizing to many things period,..LOL.I was just awe struck and captivated watching my P-Funk hero's on stage ,tearing the roof off the sucka..!.I will never forget that night..
My first time hearing this was at my uncle's wake. When another one of my uncles would come home and visit, he would play this just before he left. Upon my first time hearing it I cried like a child but I also heard him saying he was alright. Now I smile when I hear it.
Every time I watch them practice I would. Plainfield represented P-Funk all thru the 70’s. I had such a crush on Glen back n the day, I would Melt & Giggle whenever we spoke during our brief conversations........ Lots of crazy fun back then. I Miss those days❗️
I was fortunately living in Houston at the time and was a Funkateer back in the day si there was no way I was missing this one. We were blasted out our minds when the Mothership landed. Twas a glorious night and we partied til dawn
I love you Glen. I know we are not supposed to question certain things but as a human being we must ask just why take away people who just beginning in life??? He was truly a musical scientist!!
When it comes to style, I'd say Glenn Goins is my absolute favorite vocalist of all time. Even watching him perform, he seemed so in control... So cool. Fuck leukemia. Big time.
Glenn Goins was my favorite male singer and remains that even after all this time! when he and Big Foot started Mutiny I was totally on board, at age 20 I was totally hyped to do the sleeve drawing for the first album! I was crushed when he passed, but blessed to be influenced by his genius, fly on Glenn!
@@robertbright-jc3sd nah bruh, I was there, Mutiny was started by Glenn and Jerome, and some of the original Mutiny tracks ended up on the Quazar album. Big Foot recruited a whole new band and recorded all new tracks after Glenn passed and that music was the album that got released and is the one I did the sleeve drawing for in 1979.
@@robertbright-jc3sd glad to share knowledge with a fellow funkateer! Glenn's brother Kevin was lead vocalist of Quazar and a great singer in his own right. I still have some recordings from the original Mutiny tracks that were never released. and if you dig Glenn, check out his group The Bags, early stuff before P-Funk
TheRealTommyRock Thank you for the reply, I remember your artwork on the sleeve of the first album 👍🤘, your experience with the Goins Brother’s is PRICELESS.I also remember hearing Glenn with the group THE BAGS you was able to tell that he was going to be a force to be RECKONED WITH, again “FELLOW FUNKATEER thank you for the reply and FACTS.🤘🎶🎸🎶🤘
Besides G. Clinton, my all-time favorite P-Funk members were and always will be Glenn Goins, Garry Shider and Ray (Sting Ray) Davis. I will always love P-Funk but as the premier funk band of ALL TIME, they will not be the same with those 3 gone. I am so glad I grew up listening to their music and seen them in concert at least 20-25 times!! I 1st got funktized at the age of 12 back in '74 with the release of Chocolate City. Being from D.C. and MD I was hooked!! Been funkin' ever since!
Not only mad funky but deep -- one of the most soulful, bittersweet but ultimately joyous creations in the history of groove music. Thanks so much for posting this great live version.
I love you Glen Goins, my favorite voice in parliament. You died so very young, 24 yrs. old, from an illness. You may have only been with parliament from 75’-78’, & 4 albums. But you made a huge dent in parliament history. You will always be my ultimate favorite. God bless you, and thank you for your soul, your funk, and your spirit that you put into the music. 🎼🙏🏽❤️🔥
My main man Glen Goines- the best singer on this planet. The Black Funkateers really lost a funking great man!! RIH Glen!! He was truly singing for his mother. Just funking around for fun!!
I found out about seven years ago that I am an Uncle to one of Glens Cousins. But he said he never got to to know him, But his parents talked about Glen ,his brother and Sister all the time as to what great singers the were.
long live the mothership!!!! I saw P-funk allstars somewhere 1997 in stockholm, was blasted on cosmic weed and I remember when Flashlight began.... the crowd freaked out. I wish these masters return, especially with Bootsy on the bass..on the ONE !
this was da greatiest band been on this earth i mean i love other bands but da shit these guys will never be imitated or duplicated thank god i witness funkadelecs over 10 times an no show was never da same u got your money worth they wanted 2 play all night it wasnt about money with george any they just funkin around an we were invited im sorry u never u missed a great moment in life michael crummer greenville s.c.
I know Glen Goines, but who is the singer at the 1:00 mark, also in black with minimal makeup? I've been a Pfunk fan for years but just learning now who all these brilliant singers are.
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY2 TO MY SON KANE COLLINGS !!! your making 'IT' all the way My Lovely Son.x. your dad is sooooooo PROUD!!! im The Soul Catz Out dere are Licking Dis Tooooon Brudder.

Lisa Renee Glenn was like no other!! God he was good!!
Lisa Renee yes Sir tht touch my soul wht you just said p funk lives on fotever
this has always been in my top ten all-time funk songs since the first time I heard it ...GLENN WAS AMAZING
WOW they took it there. They are probably right
Glen Goines had the voice of a Black Angel!!! He was just the best soul/ jazz/ rock/ and funk singer ever!!!
Marilyn Jackson He puts chills in your bones! Like Aretha!
Glen Goines is my favorite, voice of parliament. So much soul!!!! Black angel, yes sir….. gone too soon… 🙏🏽🤍
Angela are white?
@@bigpoppa3866 😅
😅😮
@@JamesWrightjr apparently, they are Black.
Glen Goins best singer in history (Man what a voice)
You said it!
Yes 👍
I wouldn't say he was the best, that would be like saying that Phillipe Whynn never existed!
But he was a DAMN good singer!!!
@@BedeYahEmmanuel Glenn was the p funk his voice was made for the funk
INDEED🎼❤️🤟🏽
One of the best live concerts in history
the best
The only concert in history

Short and simple this was the baddest group ever
yeah , i think so to and i like a LOT of different genres and styles of music !
From hendrix to house
From hip hop to thunderdome/Hardcore
From Funk to Goa trance
But funkadelic..
Biggest baddest motherfunkers to walk this planet
(Hendrix/David Gilmour an dJohn Frusciante are my gods tho)
but that doesn't take away that i truelly think this was the baddest group ever
I'm doing a piece of art of funkadelic as we speak and I'm going to paint his ass twice in that art I'm going to find a spot I have never heard nobody sing like that effortlessly yes totally agree
❤️
P-FUNK wasn't short or simple because it's still here alive in 2022 and beyond. 🤘🏿
@@ericbutler8712 but the song is short and straight to the point
i am convinced this is the best live show in history
It's a show I'd go see if time travel were available.
Absolutely!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wish I was there
How many times I’ve thought...of only I had been born 20 years earlier...this show is banging from beginning to end..
Cosmic Slop as that opener just setting that tone...Mmmm crank the shit out of it in the desert at night. Let Eddie scream.
@@santeebandit3246 That’s not Eddie Hazel on guitar 🎸 it’s Michael Hampton.
This performance makes me emotional for some reason. This song is beautiful.

Sang, Glenn! It chokes me up that I was born past your time, I just wish I could say thanks for the funk in person.
Im am so thankful I was there in person to see this concert,.didnt realize I was witnessing history being made then,.that night I wasnt realizing to many things period,..LOL.I was just awe struck and captivated watching my P-Funk hero's on stage ,tearing the roof off the sucka..!.I will never forget that night..

Happy birthday my beautiful hero , Glenn. Forever funkin for fun.

I was at the take funk to heaven in '77 at Madison Square Garden. I still haven't recovered from that. Thanks Mom, best decision you ever made.
I could listen to Glen sing this ALL day & night.
Every time I watch them practice I would. Plainfield represented P-Funk all thru the 70’s. I had such a crush on Glen back n the day, I would Melt & Giggle whenever we spoke during our brief conversations........
Lots of crazy fun back then.
I Miss those days❗️
This kinda cool barely exists anymore. Big respect to the folks who do it and get down. \,,/
1, of the best songs ever, sung by the greatest vocalist ever, RIF, Rest In Funk 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Glenn you were a talent voice,guitarist,drummer. RIH my brother!!!
and bassist, he used to do bass on the live "Undisco Kidd"
When I leave this world the only consolation besides conversing with my ancestors is being able to hear this magnificent man sing again
Glen's voice still lives in all that loved him spirits!! Love you, Glen, you would always have a place in my heart!
Big fan of Glen. He should've lead every song. Smooth brother and besides he is the only one who seems to be able to sing high.
Affirmative: ANd George knew it, when it was time for Glenn to bring the mothership down he ALWAYS made sure he was in the zone!!!
I was fortunately living in Houston at the time and was a Funkateer back in the day si there was no way I was missing this one. We were blasted out our minds when the Mothership landed. Twas a glorious night and we partied til dawn
I love you Glen. I know we are not supposed to question certain things but as a human being we must ask just why take away people who just beginning in life??? He was truly a musical scientist!!
let me just f*nkin say...... this is just the most amazing live shit there is, old school till the death foooooooooool.........
Different Feelings About George since I saw that documentary, but The PFUNK IS FOREVER IN MY SOUL!!! 🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽
That's a very slanted documentary. It is true but not the whole truth.
This is a perfect song to end a concert with
Love ya Glenn. Your gift got me thru some difficult times.
They didn't ask permission to take you on a spiritual journey. My goodness, simply hypnotizing to the ears.

Unbelievably brilliant - what a groove.
These guys are absolutely great.
It's always Glenn. Nice that everyone had a good time, but Glenn was the show.
agreed!
So damn funky thank you Glenn!!!!!
Plainfield is and always will be Funkadelic!
I agree! From DC but Plainfield was on the map!
only stupid people can make a sign down on this funky music at its best and over it trascends everything keep on funky
Thank you for posting this from the bottom of my funky soul!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥Sent chills down my spine! Spirit was in Houston that night!
Take us home Glen!
MY BROTHER AND I WERE RAISED ON THE PFUNK🤘🏽🤘🏽🤘🏽.

The infamous whistle then 3:05 !!!! If you don't get the chills around this part then funk pass revoked 🤦♂️🤣👨💻
This man was above amazing!!!! I with you Glenn!!!
This is unbelievably good

Beautiful man crossed over on my birthday.😞⚘💖
That voice, those horns and the band ❤
Back in the day they wasn't coming down to south Florida and I had to travel to Atlanta to see them and it was worth every penny
1 of the best pleasures in my life..Giving thanks for the invention of film and recording,without it,we'd be void of this greatness
you youngstas missd some great music R.i.P GLEN GOINS
If you saw Parliament Funkadelic during the Mothership Connection tour - this was the close out song - Glen Goins what a beautiful voice🤘🏿
long live the mothership!!!!
I saw P-funk allstars somewhere 1997 in stockholm, was blasted on cosmic weed and I remember when Flashlight began.... the crowd freaked out.

Great way to sign off the evening, or morning as it may be ... a little "funkin' around" before lights out.
i saw them in the 70s i was blabgasted i love it
🙋🏾♂️ They was my heroes when I was nine, years old. I'm fifty five now, I'll never out grow them.
SINCE I NEVER GOT TO SEE GLEN AND HE'S FROM MY HOME TOWN,,THIS WILL DO.
Timeless incredible music. Pfunk4life.
I went to see them this week in NYC at the Beer Garden (South Street Seaport)..... lets just say, I should have seen them 30 years ago.
Hard to believe this was almost 42 years ago....
Make that 46 years ago now...time sho' nuff flies...😎
Saw ya'll in Chicago in 1975 at the old Chicago Stadium...but no matter where you see them, the P-Funk connection is "The Bomb".
Leo55BabyBoomer right a year or two be4 when "We" crash the crash auditorium t
Leo55BabyBoomer Or a year or 2 When "we crash the aditoum doors,and made it genal admission.😎 Yeah!!!
The baddest band....EVER!
Glen Goins definitely stole this show!
I had the HONOR to meet Michael Hampton, in Louisville ,one of the Greatest guitarist on the Planet!!!!
glen always gave a gr8 show
what a send off!!!!
Fly on Glen, fly on !!!
That harmony, they killed it
I was at this same show in Charlotte NC. 1976.
When you see my mother I'm alright!!!! Lawd help me!
its alwaysHalloween night with these brothas
I know Glen Goines, but who is the singer at the 1:00 mark, also in black with minimal makeup? I've been a Pfunk fan for years but just learning now who all these brilliant singers are.
Oh that's "Shady" Grady Thomas. The one who sings in the baritone (deep) voice you hear on P-Funk songs.
@@cjjaxxon Thanks! I just can't over how many incredible voices they had, it's like having a baseball lineup made up entirely of all-stars.
Classic George Clinton. Love all of the stuff. The older the Better 🤘🤘
couldn't agree more!!
Awesome what can you say
Glenn!!!!!!!!!!!
RIP to my man Mr Glenn Goins🙏🙏
Damn , I wish every Parliament-Funkadelic video on You Tube was this clear!
Glen Glen Glen .,..?RIP mstr Goins...you still Alive in m'y heart
Ay.... Come here Glen. I want just Glen to sing this song. Airbody else be cool.
Fantastic track
この、映像は、始めてですね!!最高!!
I put some of this on for my grandkids they asked me what I listen to I told them real music
🎶"If You see My Mother tell her I'm alright just funkin around for fun" 🎶Thanks Glenn👑 still funkin around for fun.
It's hard to watch anything with Funkadelic with Glen in the lead. Even watching their tour and live performances weakens me. Glen was beautiful.
