@Rickey Henderson Debatable, my friend. They could go either way. Were they a rock band that played funk? Or a funk band that played rock? IMO they were a rock band that excelled at James Brown, Jimi, and Sly.

I so love watching this exciting performance. The grooves and anticipation of each song so masterfully played...They Jammed so strong. Dennis Chambers. laid out the foundation for the funk..Skeet bump the bass to another place..Mike Hampton. was so solid Rock hard...Eddie smooth as butter. Gary just laid it out Lige Curry Held down the back row...!! lil Greg and the horn section did there Thang...!!! I loved the entire Show.
I bet the whole of Germany could feel the earth shaking. These monstrous shows in the early 80s were the pinnacle of P-Funk's musical power. And mind it, this line up is missing the whole squad. Maceo, Bernie, Philippe Wayne, and many other funkateers weren't there for this show or maybe the tour. But that didn't stop this jackhammer band from pounding the audiences. Each musician is exceptionally great at what they do and to make it freakier, there is George who brings out the wilder side out of them. Blackbird McKnight played with Miles Davis, we all know what Dennis can do, Greg Boyer on the Trombone is a master of adding humor to his solos but with a lot of complexity behind it, Sandra-the backup singer took it to church (my favourite part of the show), Rodney Skeet Curtis is in my opinion the most committed funk bass player ever. When George asked him if he wanted to solo, he simply refused because he wanted to hold that groove so bad and knew that it was the best thing for the moment. And last but not at all the least, the live sound engineers who mixed the show very well so we could watch it and feel the beat after all these years. I LOOOVE TH-cam. ❤️
Michael Hampton has always been such a great guitar player, people always talk about Eddie Hazel because how good he was but Michael Hampton is the man
This video has a real pro behind the cameras and the audio is solid and tight. Whoever did this deserves the Platinum Medal from everyone in Funkland. Damn, I wish I was there. I really wish I was playing bass that night!!
I had no idea Parliament were gigging in 85! amazing upload! George is 44 here and the last era of him being the totally on fire frontman. . hilarious & awesome to see the young Chili Peppers do the encore. George's protege's and he pretty much passed on the funk mantle to them that year with Freaky Styley. so awesome.
Don't know why folks gotta make comparisons...George was always surrounded by some fantastic talent. Funksters all! They all came outta P University! And they all threw down on this set. Betcha!
I’ve seen a lot of Parliament Funkadelic live videos but this is by far the best sound and video out there. Thank you for providing the funk P Funk.💣💥👏🏾👏🏾🥰
This is abso-freaking-lutely one of the absolute best concerts ever recorded, whatever the musical genre. It's ALL there - the groove, the skills, the showmanship, the energy... And all this for an 80's German TV show :D
A rough setlist, hope you like it: Cosmic Slop / 11:12 Let's Take It to the Stage / 27:20 One Nation Under a Groove + (Not Just) Knee Deep / 37:20 Maggot Brain / 46:00 Standing on the Verge of Getting It On / 1:00:20 Atomic Dog / 1:09:30 Flash Light / 1:19:00 Cosmic Slop (revisited, with special guests Red Hot Chili Peppers, Killing Joke and The Untouchables)

this is one of the best bootlegs i've ever seen from funkadelic and any band in general!!... Eddie AND Mike tearin it up and the video quality is veerrrryy good too! everything sound so good together :D i wonder now why i never seen this recording before :D i needed this damn funk, haven't listen for a while, feel totally satisfied
this was a great performance enuf said! i'm still always amazed that mike hampton and eddie hazel aren't praised across all of rock and roll as the guitar gods they are! they deserve to get PAID!!! you know what i mean??? do you understand?
oh my god!i had no idea these guys can play so good!m blown away by the guitar work.ive heard the hits I guess but I wish I knew about the blues stuff a long time ago.cant say enough about this band.they can flat out jam!great show.just wish bootsy was with them
jason cauthen the work they did with Eddie Hazel as their guitarist is the best in my opinion. I love almost all of it over the past 50+ years, but Eddie Hazel was the greatest
CorvusCorone68 the movie is Close Encounters. They actually asked George to do the music. He gave them the music and they went a firrent direction. He took the music, added the girls and that became the first Brides of Funkenstein album.
Brother this happens everyday for me, look into goetia and the “aliens” will talk through that purple funk ya dig, them spirits got they James brown pass
Ich hab sie 1979 gesehen da war ich 15. Hab sie nicht gekannt, war umsonst im Konzert, Eins der krassesten die ich je gesehen habe. Seitdem, I Got the Funk auch nach 40 Jahren.
Now this sounds nearly perfect! I wish all the Pfunk videos sounded at least this good! The guitars don't get mixed in unfortunately till the 6:36 mark. But definitely one of the best out there!
Thank you very much!!! Merci Beaucoup!! Muchissimas Gracias! I dont now how to say ? Al this great music & Wonderfull people ! You have make somebady Happy tonight....Too Good !!!
mid 80s P-Funk video is somewhat rare... and this is very high quality performance.. Funkentelechy opening is amazing. The Eddie-Mike duet / duel has me feeling stuff. Eddie needs some volume boost there. This is one of the best Videos of Eddie
To be perfectly honest, Rock & Roll music is not "music for White people", but instead, music for all people, and no one can out-Rock Funkadelic. Period.

The only band that said "Let's Take It To The Stage" and nobody came to challenge them. Nobody wanted that smoke.
George Clinton is the sensei of funk
The greatest sounds I've ever heard here wow

Yes, but Kidd Funkadelic is there( 2:10)(3:10)
The late and great Amp Fiddler, just passed a couple days ago. So, it's really great to our heroes, all here & accounted for.

I demand a remaster from whoever funky recorded this gig, and an official DVD/blu-ray release.
Michael Hampton has always been such a great guitar player, people always talk about Eddie Hazel because how good he was but Michael Hampton is the man
Mike's cool but Eddie started the whole funkadelic thang Eddie was funkadelic
Mike keeping the flame lit
They all good
Yeah, it was a drag he was so low in the mix during Maggot Brain here. So killer.
He was outstanding
This video has a real pro behind the cameras and the audio is solid and tight. Whoever did this deserves the Platinum Medal from everyone in Funkland. Damn, I wish I was there. I really wish I was playing bass that night!!
It's a pro shot 4 camera shoot. For German tv
I can never get tired of this show.
Every concert I attend was epic. Never a dull moment...❤❤❤❤

Parliament been gigging since they started g man
Even in today era... still touring.
Eddie was the greatest I've ever heard.... Love Jimmie , S.R.V and Jeff Beck, after listening to Hazal , I stopped playing all togeather
I am amazed I lived without George Clinton for so long. Maggot Brain blew me away. The live experience must have been stupefying.
Put your headphones on and turn it up and smoke a fat one with maggot brain then you will get the true experience😎😉
Whew! An hour and a half of [Pure] Funk. Dennis Chambers' drumming is incredible throughout. Thanks!
Don't know why folks gotta make comparisons...George was always surrounded by some fantastic talent. Funksters all! They all came outta P University! And they all threw down on this set. Betcha!
Do you know who was in the show by any chance?

All of James Brown's precision with none of his limitations. George/P-Funk was everything music should be.
JB and limitations??? That is like oil and water
@@darrinricketts6146 jb was machine funk this is liquid funk
what limitations?
Vincent Guarna
Getting fined for playing the wrong notes? Not being given free rein to improvise? It’s quite well-documented.
Darrin Ricketts
Did you try improvising when you were his employee? How did that work out?
Indeed fantastic to see Dennis Chambers on drums !!! he truely is a (drum) monster !
Grooooooovy concert !!
mike hampton tore this knee deep up! george clinton is a genious. T n C Town
I have destroyed my eardrums countless times to maggot brain from this show and will do it again

He’s black bro, of course. Don’t you watch the Grammys.
All one has to do is listen to Maggot Brain. Says it all!

you know that movie where aliens use music to communicate with humans? what if aliens visit and they use Funkadelic to communicate?
They musta tried Sun Ra first. Not a lot of people understood. :)
