The comments here are very interesting to say the least. Reading the "funk vs. hip hop" debate got me thinking: Funk is like a chromed out black Harley Davidson. In comparision, Hip Hop is like a plastic orange Big Wheel.
@kevinh820 Hard to find unless someone has the 1981 vinyl. Funkadelic released the CD with a different version of Come Back that sounds nothing like the original.
it's a nice song but come on this is no where near a george clinton produced song and as we now know via TVONE UNSUNG EVERYONE DID GEORGE WRONG BAND MEMBERS LAYWERS ONLY THOSE WHO STAY WITH GEORGE AFTER HE WAS FORCE TO GO SOLO LIKE BOOTSY, EDDIE, BERNIE PLILIPPE' FRED, MACEO
@tempts2000 I'm far from an expert, but from a whole bunch of interviews I read, George did the original Parliaments and Funkadelics a lot worse than they ever did him. There's a really good article on them all in wax poetics.
@garmonbozia318 If that is the case how come everybody eles got paid and George is still trying to get the rights to his own music . those others jumped ship before the money stop rolling.
@garmonbozia318 also they took the name before George could copy right it thinking that with his friends it wouldnt come to that I know Fuzzy came u[p with the name in 69' but that that was before the jealousy kicked in because George would give anybody a job.
@garmonbozia318 i think the parliaments left because they were being sidelined for new people like glenn goins. also i think the drug scene might have been too much for them, and the pcofj. but as far as money goes, everybody in p-funk got screwed over equally. over the years p-funk had like 30+ plus members, 30 years later the pie cant be that big to cut up since the record companies get most of the money. george works wit anybody, who else could work wit sly stone and get him to show up?
GREAT MUSIC AND YET ANOTHER FUNKADELIC/PARLIAMENT CUT THAT WAS OVERLOOKED WHEN ORIGINALLY RELEASED. GREAT DANCE TRACK, ESPECIALLY THE PIANO & HOUSEY SOUND EFFECTS(!), AND THANK YOU FOR POSTING - SEE ALSO "ONE BAD APPLE" BY THE OSMONDS OR J5-LOVE YOU SAVE. DAVEDJ
@meechamaka411 It's not quite a P-Funk tune...around 1980 there was a huge riff within the P-Funk organization (more than likely over money among other problems).Grady,Simon & Fuzzy (part of the original Parliament/Funkadelic) split from the core group and formed their own Funkadelic group with one LP-Connections & Disconnections (which this tune came from)..More confusing that George,Bernie and the rest came out w/ Electric Spanking of War Babies at the same time....
If you start reading thins you CANT stop .Once ther was a little girl named Cecilia.She was a little 7 year old who got strangled and raped by a man =.If you dont post this to 15 other videos you will see CCecilia standing at the end of your bed with a knife and she will kill you
You have to do this by midnight or you will be dead.
Crazy! I swear I dropped three pennies on the record needle starting at 1:07 when I recorded this track onto my pc along time ago! My pc crashed and now im hearing it again. Probably a coincidence but that would be nuts if it was the same recording
You can say what you want, but no bass line in the universe catches you so much than the bass lines of tha great P-FUNK ! Bow down, we're not worthy, we're not worthy !
@codini2000 HEY good ear. I didn't even noticed that. Well, I'm waking up right now. It is correct, same bass line. Nightcrawler is from 1977. By the way I gotta find it again in my crates.
Nah, your right funky, I didn't go back far enough to see the analogy....kids AREN"T giving credit where it's due going back to 1985 or 86 when sampling really took off. But two wrongs don't make right for the likes of Dusty Fingers and other trackminers.
I think you NEED to undestand that the folks in THIS band were THE ORIGINAL MEMBERS OF P-FUNK. THEY were the driving force behind their earlier sounds before Clinton allowed Bootsy and Phelps to steer the mothership. Know your history..don't talk what you THINK you know.
@mightyblack1 I'm confused by your statement becuase you said THEY couldn't do it like him or walk a mile in his shoes..have you heard this CD in its entirety? The album was better than anything that game out post Knee Deep by Parliament or Funkadelic...they got blackballed because they told the truth about what it was like working with George once he snorted all the millions they made in the 70's. No offense to the Dr. but these guys eclipsed all the P-Funk projects Clinton put together.
mighty..nothing wrong with that you really can't knock what he JB and Bootsy have done for blak music in general. I remember when they were on Soul Train performing "Connections and Disconnections" (the ablum was actually named THAT instead of it's current re-issued title) and I thought "these cats ripped off George Clinton..fakers". When Don C. introduced them the names clicked and I bought the album anway but I always thought it was GC's way of getting back @ Casablanca.
u must be white.......only you whiteboys be breaking down sample lists for the masses. Thas sacrilege to the hip-hop world and you know it. We accepted you into hip-hop and and 15 years later you're breakin down the Producer/DJ's masterpieces for a profit. And don't give me that "You brothas was samplin white music!".......that don't have nothin to do with the heresy of givin up the secrets of hip-hop production made pre-1990(before sample clearance laws).
It is and it isn't. I'm black..been black 44 years and I'll tell you THIS...what hip-hop did to funk was sacrilege. It stopped ghetto kids who CREATED the music with live instrumrnts and turned them into lazy theives. What the record company owners did to the likes of old balck recording artists is what's being done today my the "young guns". NOT GIVING CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE. It a shame that white folks have to teach black folks about OUR music. Stay black rann1968
@funkysample im a b-boy. child of hip hop. and we gave MUCH respect to artists like this. maybe you feel offended but hip hop was pioneered on more than just funk. please know this!
we used rock also. call it thievery if you want, but you just sound scorned,
we were too poor to own instruments so we extended classic beats. you should feel honored instead on walkng around with a stick up your azz.
ALL hip hop records have to give credit to the samples. try buying a rap CD and looking
mr.philly..please don't test the knowledge ( I too am a child of hip-hop)..but allow me to remove the stick and beat you over the head with it with some KNOWLEDGE: Are you saying that the musical pioneers that the hip-hop artists STOLE their beats from were RICHER than THEM??!! JB was dirt poor but self taught in 8 instruments..Aretha Franklin..George Clinton..and BLUES ARTIST..dirty poor..lived in poverty..self taught on thier instruments. DJ's hit labels from thei rivals (cont.).
mr phil..where was the so called "credit" during those days? Hip-hop was FORCED to name their sources and even THAT constitutes a "bar" limit. To break it down to YOUR dumbaz, if I used a certain portion of your song I DON'T have to list you as a credit..MANY hip-hop artists still follow this rule. Some hip-hop artist WILL..but only because they were FORCED to do so. Buy FUNDMC by People Under the Stairs and see how many "credited" artist THEY listed from beats THEY jacked. Try again...son.
wow. just wow. So THIS is where the know you got soul sampled beat is from. After what, 22 years, I finally know where eric b. and rakim got that beat.
Years ago, this was the first time I heard a soulful Funkadelic song which was completely unexpected.... but I really liked it! I like the way the song has so many twists and turns in its structure that all work exceedingly well, with a perky jazzy/blues piano scat over the top to lift the mood. What a great intro fill and beat too, the world would be a different place without this song but most people probably don't realise.
Great song...btw...this is off-topic, but I'd like to let everyone out there reading this know the Chinese Communist Party has been persecuting 70 million Falun Gong spiritual practitioners for 10 years in China. The media doesn't cover it. It must stop, so they can be free like we are here. Thanks.
This is the 2nd time this Name-Game happened to a Westbound Band:
In 1973, the OHIO PLAYERS signed with Mercury, but they were STILL under contract with Westbound. Junie Morrison (who joined in '71) stayed with Westbound and called HIMSELF "The Ohio Players"-and got about 3 albums out of the deal before the REAL OPs sued!! Junie's remaining Westbound albums were under his name. His backing band (formerly The COUNTS) became The CROWD PLEASERS, led by Donald "Thumpdaddy" Payne.
you cant jus change the name of a legendary band like this you cunt fuzz funkadelic wehether yuou likie it or not its FUNKADELIC george left for the right reasions
George NEVER left--it was Fuzzy, Grady and Calvin WHO left (in July, 1977) over pay disputes. This took out the true Parliaments (leaving only George and Ray). Fuzzy called his group "Funkadelic" and signed them to LAX/MCA, while the TRUE Funkadelic was still with Warners. George SUED...
and LOST!! (the Capitol Albums of the early '80s were meant as FUNKADELIC albums before the lawsuit.) George got the name back in '88--only to have it bounce out to EDDIE HAZEL.
George officially wound up calling the whole thang The P-Funk All-Stars for nearly 2 decades before the whole mess could be straightened out-to an extent. He now calls it GEORGE CLINTON & PARLIAMENT-FUNKADELIC, while Rev. Haskins-mending fences after a 2 decade feud-calls THIS BAND playing "ORIGINAL 'P' " (meaning Original Parliament).
Nonetheless, Fuzzy wasn't lying either time: it was FUNKADELIC and PARLIAMENT--via Relation!!! "No Imitaiton, Just Relation!"
This offshoot either called themselves FUNKADELIC or ORIGINAL 'P' over the course of it's time. In school, I called them "FUZZ-FUNKADELIC", because technically, it IS Parliament Funkadelic, but with The Reverend Clarence 'Fuzzy' Haskins in the lead, instead of George.
I never did understand why the original ' Come Back ' was not the re-release. That joint is no joke! When I met the fellas I actually forgot to ask them why......
I love this album dispite all the backslash becasue it was not created by George, but these guys were with george from the very begining & they had 2 have influenced the music that was created. So i always gave them there props
true i wish somebody would post that one it is wicked and it'sobvious george should have allowed more input from the guys who started with him in the beg....cause that sly shit much as i luv him wasnt strokin on the funk.a mixture of war babies and trombipulation mixed with the tunes on this album would have kept them from getting that ass kicked by prince and rick,one way and all those other brand named mollyflocks who came thru faking the funk..using the word funk but knowin nutin bout it-P.U.
Out of all the Funkadelic Samples people have use in the past...Think Eric B. and Rakim us this one, that's saying alot, with all the other songs and albums that George Clinton was involved in,this was the hottest..in my opinion....WITHOUT GEORGE CLINTON..GO FIGURE!!!!
Did'nt say George Clinton had a part in this song. As a child of the funk, Fuzzy, Calvin, and Grady made up this group, George at the time when this came out, was'nt really doing much...in 1981
this is not the funkadelic,its cool,but thees guys was on soul train,a 3-d band,at the time george was in and out of court,he told calvin,fuzzy,grady,to lets take it to the stage,let the people see whos a funkadelic
The opening drums to this song has been sampled so many times. Sampled by Salt-N-Pepa "Lets Talk About Sex" Eric B. & Rakim "I Know I Got Soul". NWA "Straight Outta Compton"
They did: in 1998, they recorded under the name "Original P" and added Ray Davis into the mix. We (Lisa, my deceased fiancee, who died of colon cancer on September 4, 2003, at the age of 39) saw them perform at B.B. Kings in New York City in July 2002. They put on a wonderful performance, although Calvin wasn't there.
This when Fuzzy and the boys were trippin' and George was moving in another direction with his tripped out ways.....Lovely still...Brings back lots of great memories because I was a kid during these times Jr high and High school years from 1977 thru 1984......All good .....love the Funk....it is all in me....
this had jerry goldstein producing, who was the main producer for WAR, every bit as funky as the Mob in their own way. it had the first of the Parliament vocalists, a band that was groove oriented and the added ingredient of bitterness to make it truly earthy. it ranks as well as a studio-heavy side project of any of the mob, including bootsy, and it may not be a classic like maggot brain, but it is a side project from original P-funk personnel. i dig it for that alone.
I found this cd in its original big cardboard sleeve ina detroit record store. By far one of my fav. funkadelic albums, the witch is the shit! WHO CARES IF GEORGE WASNT ON IT
Please post "Come Back" or "Connexions and DisConnexions". Lawsuit or not, this waz, iz and will alwayz be from the "P" Tree. Listen to da riddim trax inna backbeat. Pure F*&^%^*n'P
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
They still took what George taught them and use it. The costumes and music concept is what came out the camp in the 70's. I'm a big P-Funk so I not going to hate on this,but I still think it's sad. They should have just stayed with George and worked it out .This look like a Chucky Cheese Band while you eat pizza. DAM

Years ago, this was the first time I heard a soulful Funkadelic song which was completely unexpected.... but I really liked it! I like the way the song has so many twists and turns in its structure that all work exceedingly well, with a perky jazzy/blues piano scat over the top to lift the mood. What a great intro fill and beat too, the world would be a different place without this song but most people probably don't realise.

Great song...btw...this is off-topic, but I'd like to let everyone out there reading this know the Chinese Communist Party has been persecuting 70 million Falun Gong spiritual practitioners for 10 years in China. The media doesn't cover it. It must stop, so they can be free like we are here. Thanks.

FINAL PART:
This is the 2nd time this Name-Game happened to a Westbound Band:
In 1973, the OHIO PLAYERS signed with Mercury, but they were STILL under contract with Westbound. Junie Morrison (who joined in '71) stayed with Westbound and called HIMSELF "The Ohio Players"-and got about 3 albums out of the deal before the REAL OPs sued!! Junie's remaining Westbound albums were under his name. His backing band (formerly The COUNTS) became The CROWD PLEASERS, led by Donald "Thumpdaddy" Payne.

you cant jus change the name of a legendary band like this you cunt fuzz funkadelic wehether yuou likie it or not its FUNKADELIC george left for the right reasions
dehnobeano 2 years ago
You misunderstand:
George NEVER left--it was Fuzzy, Grady and Calvin WHO left (in July, 1977) over pay disputes. This took out the true Parliaments (leaving only George and Ray). Fuzzy called his group "Funkadelic" and signed them to LAX/MCA, while the TRUE Funkadelic was still with Warners. George SUED...
and LOST!! (the Capitol Albums of the early '80s were meant as FUNKADELIC albums before the lawsuit.) George got the name back in '88--only to have it bounce out to EDDIE HAZEL.
CosmicFunkOSMOSIS 2 years ago 2
Here's pt. 2:
George officially wound up calling the whole thang The P-Funk All-Stars for nearly 2 decades before the whole mess could be straightened out-to an extent. He now calls it GEORGE CLINTON & PARLIAMENT-FUNKADELIC, while Rev. Haskins-mending fences after a 2 decade feud-calls THIS BAND playing "ORIGINAL 'P' " (meaning Original Parliament).
Nonetheless, Fuzzy wasn't lying either time: it was FUNKADELIC and PARLIAMENT--via Relation!!! "No Imitaiton, Just Relation!"
CosmicFunkOSMOSIS 2 years ago 2
This offshoot either called themselves FUNKADELIC or ORIGINAL 'P' over the course of it's time. In school, I called them "FUZZ-FUNKADELIC", because technically, it IS Parliament Funkadelic, but with The Reverend Clarence 'Fuzzy' Haskins in the lead, instead of George.

I sure enjoy this Funkadelic!
My favorite song is "The Witch"!
The intro is about how George became possessed by witcjery, greed and deceit.
If you lisen, the narrator says "one of quin",
meaning George! I can play "The Witch" over and over again and NOT get tired! I know the entire song by heart!
funkfan45 3 years ago
true i wish somebody would post that one it is wicked and it'sobvious george should have allowed more input from the guys who started with him in the beg....cause that sly shit much as i luv him wasnt strokin on the funk.a mixture of war babies and trombipulation mixed with the tunes on this album would have kept them from getting that ass kicked by prince and rick,one way and all those other brand named mollyflocks who came thru faking the funk..using the word funk but knowin nutin bout it-P.U.

Out of all the Funkadelic Samples people have use in the past...Think Eric B. and Rakim us this one, that's saying alot, with all the other songs and albums that George Clinton was involved in,this was the hottest..in my opinion....WITHOUT GEORGE CLINTON..GO FIGURE!!!!

Did'nt say George Clinton had a part in this song. As a child of the funk, Fuzzy, Calvin, and Grady made up this group, George at the time when this came out, was'nt really doing much...in 1981

They did: in 1998, they recorded under the name "Original P" and added Ray Davis into the mix. We (Lisa, my deceased fiancee, who died of colon cancer on September 4, 2003, at the age of 39) saw them perform at B.B. Kings in New York City in July 2002. They put on a wonderful performance, although Calvin wasn't there.

this had jerry goldstein producing, who was the main producer for WAR, every bit as funky as the Mob in their own way. it had the first of the Parliament vocalists, a band that was groove oriented and the added ingredient of bitterness to make it truly earthy. it ranks as well as a studio-heavy side project of any of the mob, including bootsy, and it may not be a classic like maggot brain, but it is a side project from original P-funk personnel. i dig it for that alone.

They still took what George taught them and use it. The costumes and music concept is what came out the camp in the 70's. I'm a big P-Funk so I not going to hate on this,but I still think it's sad. They should have just stayed with George and worked it out .This look like a Chucky Cheese Band while you eat pizza. DAM
