My all time favorite band playing this classic way back in 1976. Check out the groove on this song. Simple but powerful. Also, check out Glen Goins' vocals during the breakdown section near the end. RIP gone way too soon.
I bow down to them. My favorite band. Saw them in 1976 in N.C.
everytime i hear it this songs bring tears to my eyes
Me too... it’s that powerful and soulful.
One of the Greatest Bands ever!
There is a true magic moment in this jam. R. I. P Glen Goins and Bernie Worrell
I went to this same concert.
Loved this. It was something to see the mothership land. I am 60 years old. I will never forget it.
I saw the Mothership concert twice. At the end of the second one GC said "when we come back we'll be under water". The next concert was the Aqua boogie show.
One of tha greatest vocal performances ever!!!
All of Parliament's albums r like Operas ... A story playing out ..... Plus Glenn Goins singing for the chariots r amazing .... They had a secret message in this performance!
I know this is going to be special. This is one of my favorite live recordings, all-time. Sing it Houston!
Loved the organ in the background
Glenn was 24 when he died. Glenn played guitar in the band at his grandmothers church. Before he would commit to joining P-Funk he wanted his grandma's blessing. She encouraged him to follow his dream. There is a verse GLENN add-libbed on his debut album performance on the CHOCOLATE CITY album in the song "BIG FOOTIN"...."If only my Grandmother could see me now".
I first saw P-Funk live at Madison Square Garden in 1977. I was mesmerized from beginning to end. My favorites to this day. Nobody rocked like George and the crew. Thanks for this.
A group that is more known for its personality, grooved every other band of their era of the stage was The Time. They routinely kicked Prince’s butt.
Please do a reaction video to one of their performances.
Seen them in 1974 Brugh baddest band ever
I have this concert on DVD
On the 1!
Anyway, I enjoyed your video... always fun to share a love for something with others!
I appreciate that!
This song has been in my head for the last two weeks since seeing the actual Mothership at the Ntl African American Museum
As I previously stated, if Glen Goins voice doesn’t take you to church, you are just a straight up heathen! LoL.
Bro DeLuca we appreciate you!
Great, icons of music.
Great to have you back! I'd love to see you react to Grand Funk. Especially anything 68-73. Great bass player, Mel Schacher.
Great idea. I love that band. Thanks for the suggestion.
I’ve loved this song- and particularly this version- ever since I first heard it about 30 years ago. It is straight church, indeed. I was starting to get heavily into vintage (70s) Parliament-Funkadelic then, collecting the old vinyls etc after continuously coming across their name in interviews of other bands I liked at the time-I’d read that the Red Hot Chili Peppers, or Fishbone, as well as rap groups like Public Enemy, were ALL huge Pfunk fans, and that they even felt indebted to them, so I figured “I need to check these guys out!” So I went out and bought “Live: Pfunk Earth Tour,” a live album from I think one year after the video you played, 1977.... it had Swing Down, too. I think my fav song on there is the live version of “Gamin’ On Ya!”, a song that I guess I’d describe as a cross between funk and big band/swing, what with the incredible horn charts (the live version even more so than the studio version). It’s about the happiest, most joyful thing Ive ever heard and instantly makes me smile. And the Night of the Thumpasaurus People is another fav...that riff is just epic!
Have you heard Fishbone? It’s an all-black rock band that started out in 1979 or so mostly playing a kind of ska/funk hybrid, but they gradually drew in even more influences, much like an early Parliament where you’d hear R&B, pychedelic jams, COUNTRY, you name it. It’s a crying shame that Fishbone never got to be as big as the bands that openly worship them (Gwen Stefani’s original band, No Doubt, are massive Fishbone fans).... anyway if you haven’t heard them, it’s hard to recommend just one song let alone any one album, but I think they hit their pinnacle in the early 90s, on “The Reality of My Surroundings”, and the next one,”Give a Monkey a Brain and He’ll Swear He’s the Center of the Universe”-if you like a groove, you’ll get it! You won’t hear a more vintage Parliament/George Clinton-inspired song than “The Properties of Propaganda” (from “Give a Monkey...”), by anyone. Good bass playing too! And the song “Lemon Meringue” should’ve been a hit and made them millions, such a well-written song it is.
(And “Everyday Sunshine” from “Reality” is pure Beatles.... much like another band called Funkadelic did with a certain song called “Miss Lucifer’s Love”...). They covered “Freddie’s Dead” on Soul Train in the late 80s and jaws dropped... it was like if Eddie Van Halen played for Curts Mayfield.
Fishbone is still hanging on; they’re like an 80s/90s version of Pfunk, IMO.
This was the Jam the groove was in the pocket the horn section excellent music at it best
Yeah I miss those guys....This was P-Funk at their peak!
Everything is on the One
You got to check out Funkadelic's Dwayne Blackbyrd McKnight solo with Dawn and Lynn singing "BIRDIE" in Houston. as THE BRIDES OF FUNKENSTEIN.
Dang dude! Totally gets the hips swingin’ and groovin’, totally digging it. Recommend checking out Chuck Brown and the Soul Searchers, and Trouble Funk; Washington DC legendary go go bands. Cheers!
WOW, you could do reactions to classic tight funk grooves and not even leave the bay for a while. Sly & the Family Stone, Graham Central Station, ConFunShun, Tower Of Power, Doobie Brothers, Santana, Patrice Rushen...... I know I am forgetting quite a few. "Let me put on my sunglasses, so I can see what I ain't looking at"
👋😎😺
...SLAVE
Saw this when I was a freshman in College, we all
lost our f'n minds!
My first concert in 1976 in Atlanta, my first time smoking some weed some guys had...wow that was 43yrs ago.
Yeahhhhhhh mannnnn. My 1st concert was them at the Oakland, CA. Arena. That's where they recorded part of the Parliament Live double album.
Can you do a tutorial of parliament-flashlight?? On a 4 string bass. That’s the song that made me want to play bass😄
Good choice my brutha. It can be done on a 4 string. I'll put it on my todo list.
Thank u for this!
Please listen to the studio version as it is so pure and clean and pocket ridden. God bless the funk
Glenn.... that's all I need to say.
You are singing when comes on your jamming wow
If you love the Funk, check out the Series by Mike Judge Tales From The Tour Bus Season 2. It’s all about the Funk. James Brown, Bootsy and George, Rick James , Betty Davis, Prince and it is hilarious. Animated but so well done and you get the point of view of the people that were there.
Thanks I will check it out!
My go to groove whenever a guitar player broke a string.
Love this!!! Dr Funkenstien. Cosmic Slop is the jam
check out Widespread Panic's live tribute to PFunk doing a cover of Red Hot Mama
Earth Wind and Fire
Glen was 21 here!
イェイ！👍
Ain't No Party Like A P-Funk Party Cause A P-Funk Party Don't Stop!!!!! Glen Goins died of Hodgkin's lymphoma.
Yup that's right. Man, that dude was on his way to being a star. I couldn't remember how he died when I was recording the video. Thanks!
You should read George Clinton book. He really breaks down how they started. I still play this disc til this day.
Yeah, I have started reading the book and I need to finish it.
Check out 70s band Cracking
You need to listen to the whole concert you will enjoy it cuz George Clinton is not only a good composer and band director he is a good Showman
It's still the sh--t
Lenny white streamline
Do u know that the mothership aka UFO'S is what our ancestors called the CHARIOTS ? Swing low sweet CHARIOTS come to carry us home. PSALMS ch68:17 behold the CHARIOTS of the Lod are 20,000, even thousands of Angel's and the Lord is among them because we are the real Israelites
