[TMundo]

@mgibson17 did you hide that 8-track well? I heard back in the day you had to hide it right, like right under the seat, or right somewhere where they couldn't see you puttin a new cassette in.

Simply vintage Parliament/Funkadelic !!!

[craigmusic1707]

At 1:54 and 5:12 you can hear the late legendary "Sting" Ray Davis, part of the P-funk nation from the beginning! He was also a Temptation, and to really dig his chops, check out the intro of Tear the roof off the sucker(Give up the Funk)...also the ending to Undisco Kidd on the live Houston P-Funk tour from 1978

[DBoi732]

Mind your wants because there's someone that wants your mind!

[vectorcr21]

out of all of the funk iv listened to, this one will always be number one in my heart. i cant explain why, but this is just "my song". in fact, it is the first and only funk song to make my eyes well up with tears. im not even fucking joking. i remember listening to it and, about 3/4 or so into the song, around the beginning of the first vocal chorus of "funkentelechy", the emotions that the song gave me were so profound and intense that my eyes started watering and i almost cried. THAT is Funk.

[craigmusic1707]

@vectorcr21 The fonk just rushed out and knocked you to yo' got dang knees, huh?

[craigmusic1707]

@vectorcr21 To paraphrase Richard Pryor, I guess the "funk rushed out, knocked you to ya got danged knees", huh?

[vectorcr21]

@craigmusic1707 haha, PRECISELY. that is probably the most accurate way to describe it.

[joshua626]

@vectorcr21 yea me too, I thought I was the only one. Thats deep!!

[Mokensteff]
