Thank you for posting this video, I'm a funkateer for life. For me, it was always a spiritual thang... Parliament , Funkadelics, Bootsy, and George Clinton and the rest of the clan harmonized so well...Their creation was a "whole lotta good things rolled up into one" A candy like love!!! FOR REAL
Of all the Parliament albums this one is by far my favorite.Funkentelechy vs Placebo Syndrome. When driving long distances, I can put this in and drive my ass off just listening to it over and over.
YEEEHAAA nice one! Was this really on US telly? I wish we'd that kind of commercials on TV here in Germany. Being an Heavy Metal fan at that time, "Flashlight" really changed my life, thanx a lot for that George!!
Funkentelechy is one of my personal Favorite Parliament creations- up there with The Clones Of Dr Funkenstein and Motor Booty Affair- I have the picture disc for MBA- Rumpofsteelskin, Liquid Sunshine, Aqua Boogie, et al...

Okay, I'm going to go out on a limb here...I think drugs may have had something to do with the creation of this album...
Fantastic album!

I just went back to high school, Abraham Clark High School in Roselle, New Jersey to be exact,
for a minute!!
The Yungheds need to know that this is the "O" Riginal Being that HIP-HOP was Cloned from. I myself would not be able to produce my brand of
'Blu Bagz of Funk' if it had not been for
JAMES GEORGE BOOTSY RAY & GLEN!
Forever Funk.
