Do That Stuff - Parliament

[58dhart]

I got to get some more of that....more of that FUNKY STUFF!!

[IUSECAMERAS]

nice & smooth funky for you sample!

[cccarter714]

Good old school funk, that's what's up with this sound.

[MysticSonic007]

2 people couldn't do it :c

[jasont0815]

This isn't Bootsy on drums, or Bass 4 that matter, this is "BIGFOOT" Brailey!! The dead giveaway is his trademark fill( like the intro of Tear The Roof Off...), & his drum sound, which, since they( Clinton & crew) were known 4 recording hours upon hours, & the fact that both singles/albums were released in the same year, it may all be from the same session/s! Gaff Tape/Old Heads/Paper & Tea Towels/no bottom heads + Bigfoot= P FUNK Drumz!!! makes yo face/nose krinkle up!! LOL.....FUNK BABY!!!

[YucobRylander]

I'm loving it ppl are still commenting on this song. So cool to know ppl still dig hard work like the time they put into making this song...This one of my Jams..I know you all like SirNose D'voidoffunk if u dig this..

[slimbrotherluv]

they always ripped this one up in their live performances....

[marvbeats]

@getthatcat0 Jerome BIGFOOT Bailey

[roboshuffle]

I'm gonna make it real funky for you...

[Babelfish112]

Royksopp brought me here!

[supermariosunshine64]

It is kind of neat how Royksopp's sample kind of melts away lol

[Babelfish112]

@supermariosunshine64 Which was the part Royksopp sampled? i didnt hear it :S

[supermariosunshine64]

@Babelfish112 It's from 0:12 onwards.



[n64wilbert]

[GarwinEugeneW]

the poetry of George Clinton the king of funk.

[mouthjobmaniac]

@GarwinEugeneW thrill not wheel

[MultiGuarddog]

This was my favorite song on the Dr. Funkenstein album

[getthatcat0]

@blackfalconsungodzzz

William "Bootsy" Collins is the drummer on this track. Renny Jones is on bass. Glen Goins and Garry Shider are on guitar. Garry Shider, George Clinton, and Fuzzy Haskins are on vox.

[lunupe83]

@getthatcat0 no way that's Bootsy on drums.. 

[n64wilbert]

FUNKY AS HELL!!! DANCE SUCKA

[Mannex17]

[Dezzill1]

[adamtzsch]

@Dezzill1 Funkle Jam Wants You!

[OMGwellPWNED]

Why did they cut about a minute off of this song for the greatest hits version? That's like cutting pieces off of your wife, none of it's extraneous!

[TheLastSliceOfPie]

lul Royksopp sampled this.

[librastar88]

THIS THAT JAM HERE !!!!

[heckto35]

@Auraruth8 And Rebecca Black SUCKS!!!

[Auraruth8]

@heckto35 Yea I know =) But it really pisses me of when people cant see the resemblance between r.black, Britney Spears and lady gaga. Its all the same shit. =)

[heckto35]

@Auraruth8 Yeah, well i was responding to your comment about calling this song crap. Better than whatever bull you listen to.

[Auraruth8]

@heckto35 Well yea maybe I was a little harsh, but after hearing this a million times over it got a little annoying. Do not get me wrong this is better than the fore mentioned artists but maybe it just isn´t my cup of tea.

P.S. I don't listen to bull but I do listen bulls on parade once in a while. =)

[heckto35]

@Auraruth8 Alright. That's better put. Cause this shit, is on the one! These guys were pretty strange on record, and especially in concert. And bulls on parade is a good song, better than Lady gaga, and that other B.S.!

[Auraruth8]

@heckto35 Here is some real funky shit enjoy: Sibelius: Karelia suite - Alla marcia

P.S I saw you liked jazz me to HUGE FAN OF BILL EVANS

[heckto35]

@Auraruth8 Nice!! I love real musicianship!

[n64wilbert]

@Auraruth8 I LOVE BILL EVANS.



[n64wilbert]

@Auraruth8 Watch "The Universal Mind Of Bill Evans"!!

[Auraruth8]

@n64wilbert Seen it. =) And how can you like that idiot whats his name I cant remember the one who often says: Well if you where on an Island and you began trading bla bla. He is a little shortsighted in my opinion.

Or maybe you found it funny well anyway forget about him. =)

Well you will learn more history soon enough, there you find what you need to know. =)

[mjjcng8958]

to bad george gets no loot from his amazing and vast catolouge of music. sheesh they ripped him off and cheated him

[LordZaZou]

Royksopp brought you here. And you didn't regret !

[ZILLA810]

we're all clones!!!

[October33rd]

Parliament album covers use to scare me as a child but I could never look away.

[yourbrotherAli1]

@October33rd If you could not look away, then you might be a clone

[megatron0357]

@October33rd I feel you. I think I was tripping....off of them... 

[MrMunchee1]

[yourbrotherAli1]

@MrMunchee1 I think you're a clone, Mr. Munchee!!!

[cynobitya]

thumbs up if you came here looking for the royksopp loop

[nutothis1]

Thank you for this post. I bought this album when it was 1st released because of this song. It was the 1st song from this album that the radio station played. I loved the whole album. I still have it, but now I have to buy it on cd.

[AzzameenMonkey]

Which one of the Parliament singers is the one depicted on the cover with the "split" afro and winged outfit?

He sings the song on the 1976 concert, but I haven't been able to identify him completely.

I've narrowed it down to either being Calvin Simon or Grady Thomas. (The other then being the one in the "Sheik" outfit.)

[MrQuedog84]

@AzzameenMonkey  That is G/. Clinton

[AzzameenMonkey]

@MrQuedog84 Yeah, I discovered that some days ago watching the landing of the mothership in his 1976 houston concert some times.

First I thought GC only arrived as Dr. Funkenstein when the mothership landed, but I noticed he didn't actually come out of the contraption, but was raised from the false landing pad. Hehe.

So Grady Thomas is the "sheik" and Calvin Simon is the one also playing congas.

Thanks for the confirmation though!

[regvision]

@AzzameenMonkey george clinton is the only one depicted on parliament album covers only on funkadelic albums will you see other members and they appear in cartoon form most of the time

[jebsievers]

The period between 1960-1979 had some STRONG brass.

[pdirt100]

innerplanetary funk quite a concept..........YES!

[ssbbw00]

This band is gone but not forgotten, I remember my first p-funk experience at MSG it was a ride I will never forget I gave up the funk that night (not sex)

[marvbeats]

BIiiiiiiiiiiiiiiGFOOT on the drums

[8biminiroad]

Jerome J-Romeo Bigfoot Brailey is one of the baddest cats you will ever hear on the kit.

[nirvanachick05]

lol Royskopp

[ClassicTV4U]

I remember Z-93® in Winston-Salem, North Carolina giving this song a chance, and even though this song never made the Top 40 (or even the Hot 100), it just goes to show you that radio today just wants to keep it safe! I have a snippet of the Z-93 aircheck from back then, I'm gonna have to try and upload it...

[DAVIDCWILDER]

THRILL UP ON THE HILL, AND EVERYBODY WAS FEELIN REAL!!!

[dpat2004]

The drums are just so so nasty. I love listenin to quality musc where cats actually took their time to put out quality music. Unlike nowadays.

[lmaollama]

Strange, I only JUST found out about Royksopp and Parliament and I had no idea Royksopp's song 'happy up here' was based on the opening riff to this...

[EARLYKINGJAMES]

@GYPSYSUN1969 I KEEP REWINDING IT TO THA DRUMM PART TOO!!!LOL

[goldenj27]

sampled by royksopp's "happy up here"

[HuggumsMcgehee]

@goldenj27 Thanks. I was gonna ask.

[harmonicmenace]

"You would not believe how they partied!" - Glenn Goins sounds like a southern baptist Deacon (GOOD LAWD)!!!

[asouljedi51]

[IncaRoad01]

One of the grooviest, hippest, and FUNKIEST tunes known to mankind (and unfunky extraterestrials who want to funk just like YOU!)

[dumas15]

What was the name of that rap group in the 90's who sample this in that song gonna make it funky for you?

[TheGreatMozeek]

Nice and Smooth

[TERTOTREN]

The group was nice and smooth.

[Easygoingbass]

It will be a very very long time before we hear quality musicianship like this again. They took the time to arrange and write and orchestrate their music.

[yourbrotherAli1]

@Easygoingbass It'l never happen

[schullian11]

@Easygoingbass Seriously, turn off the fucking radio and open your eyes and you'll see that there's still plenty of amazing music by great artists being made. Ignorant fuck. :)

[screwopenborders]

@Easygoingbass well you still have artists like this but they don't get much notoriety because mainstream music is all about feeding us poop for profit. Corporate america is very sinister.

[Pabear1936]

No one is even close to these guys nowadays.

[DeeJayRoyalT]

Man, i went to a mostly black school in jr high and was in a cross-aged tutoring class that was bussed to the elementary schools. The bus driver had a cassette player so one day I took this cassette with me and asked "would you play this, please?". She looked at me all clean cut white boy lookin and said "Sure, Hun". I turned and grinned at my friends and we partied on that bus there and back! Needless to say, the driver never played another tape for me again...LOL

[lunupe83]

Jerome Brailey (RIP) my drummer mentor was the absolute best! He could drum roll with his foot, double and triple kick! That dude was BAD!! Listen this on the Parliament Live album, (ok, i'm oldschool)cd Glen Goins on da vocals!

[Timmyfunk1]

Jerome Brailey is still alive my man.

[Newiffy]
