I never saw these folks live.So sad for me, but at least You Tube helps out for what I missed.They are just so great.My teenager is big on them and they have been an influence on the music he now makes.Very ,very cool.I am glad I at least had some recordings to turn him onto.
yes yes yes i wanna ride it is mind blowing that parliament funkadelic have not recieved their true rewards until later . how many real bands out there that can play like this real music .not computer generated this is real music the kind you feel in your soul. keep funkin p funk mob.
The P-Funk Earth Tour, Charlotte coliseum 1977, at that time, this was the hottest concert around, talk about getting your money's worth, pure entertainment, to see musicians playing instruments and singing, it didn't get any better. Tracks, lip synching, turntables and 50 dancers, my how times have changed.
I love this performance but it's even better if you include the song they play right before it. Does anybody have the video that comes before this one or know the song?
Glen's voice is smooth, groovy, funk, jazz, blues, melodic, sensation, fantastic, he was just the best singer in the world. During the 70's, we thought George Clinton was singing most of those songs. When you tube became popular, this is when we discovered this soulful brother was the key to the lock. I am not taking anything away from Clinton but everybody knew about him but many people like myself did not know about Glen.
@Imani348 Oh I feel so sorry for you just now finding out about Glenn, Us Funkateers knew that he was soul unlimited. And only got better. I saw the mothership land many of times & it never was the same,or got old in anyway. Go back to the Westbound recordings of Funkadelic, Early Parliament, Up for the downstroke, Chocolate City, The Clones of Dr. Funkenstein, Listen to Bigfootin, the way you move your sexy body, Baby I owe you something good. Seasoned talent, Payed dues Musicians & singers!
What u r witnessing here will NEVER be done again. A band full a very talented BLACK musicians playing thier asses off. This was the norm back then. All soul and R&B acts could play instruments very well. It doesn't exist anymore. Keep in mind that these guys were only in their 20's and had this much developed musical talent and skill.
And Glen....Glen.....well...what else can say? So inspirational; So soulful; So powerful; So talented; So Pfunk...thanks for putting in work young bro. RIP ; )
@Prankaplegic ...U know what I know...Glen was truly the real MS connection...only the good die young....but I did get to see the MShip concert in Philly....Max Respect
@MrsPlanetMaster Yes, Glen Goins died way too young. Sad. I got to see these guys in concert when I was in high school back in the 80's. It was like a pilgrimage. Glen Goins had passed away ten years earlier but they had that old magic, if not the same on stage mobility. If I remember correctly, Gary Shider called down the Mothership that night.
Sing it Glenn!! Bring down the mothership! I hope ya'll dont have a height restriction cuz i'm kinda short, as long as ya'll got some seat belts up in there, i'll be cool! lol
Damn this video is taped in 76'. Yesterday I saw George Clinton.. allmost 36 years later! I am so glad I saw this living legend for the second time! And that he did this song. My night couldnt be any better!!!!!
Sometimes i need to get here so i can get my fix of Glenn Goins – R.I.P. true legend, gives me the chills – and then sometimes just to see cstalleys comment for a good laugh.. Haha
@Qhuit8-That's definitely Fred Wesley and Maceo Parker blowin' the cobwebs out your mind, along with trumpet players Richard Kush Griffith and Rick Gardner.
you can feel how much soul greg goins puts into this add the great hype man in funk history george clinton. you cant go wrong. sly stone invented funk but clinton revelutionized it
FREE YOUR MIND AND YOUR ASS WILL FOLLOW TONIGT!!! im 17 and into deep dubstep, but funk was my first love, because my dad let me listen to this instead of the crappy childish muzak. the sentence in all caps is one that was implanted in my head at the age of 4. just like this one: LOAN ME YA SPACESHIP MANG, I'LL BRING IT RIGHT BACK, HENGHENGHEY!! thx dad. parliament rules
I love how you can see George getting frustrated with the crowd not responding and he kind've just walks off and tells Glen come on and do this shit lol!!
didn't know Glen was such a spectacular singer. yeah, i knew he could play the hell out of a guitar. when you think of Georgel Clinton, give props to Sly. Sly started funk rock, not George. don't get me wrong, love George to death, but Sly invented it, George took it in another direction.
@flywonderful1 - I reckon Glen was so friggin awesome that the Mother Ship had to take him back...........So young so talented and so funkin' soulful...............2 much talent for one planet !
Glen had a very powerful voice. In my personal opinion the Parliament was not the same when he left. May he rest in peace. I'm sure the angels are moving above from his powerful voice.
All I know is I have seen this in its entirety and it is one of the best PF shows and quality I have ever seen...I wish I still had the VCR tape of it but it is out there
@MrAngrygary - just a matter of time......by about March 2012 by my estimation.......providing the world hasn't terminated itself in a Mayan Calendar Penthouse Centrefold time warp !
I've pre-booked my funkin ticket with the Mothership, anyways..........so keep the Funk alive !!!!!!!!!
I love this one, but any chances you could upload the full song, I wanna hear the "if ya hear any noise, it's just me n the boys" sang by glenn. Thank you
the funny thing is all of you guys aren't aware that Parliament was making you aware of whats to come through the music because the us gov't wont allow people to teach these things up front why do u think they gave Dr. Malachi York 160 yrs for statutory rape which never occurred and the max sentence is ten years... Please do your research people u deserve to know the truth...
@cstalley lamo find a bridge and please jump... that was the dumbest comment ive ever heard in my entire life and this is coming from George's godson himself....

parliament funk is some smart brothers because they know we as the chilren of israel are connected to the mothership. see u brothers and sisters soon on the ship!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@playsbass1969 A real genius musician...Plainfield, NJ, was responsible for three awesome musical figures: Glen Goins, Richard X Heyman and Richie Hass. Unfortunately only Heyman's around now. Both Goins and Hass died of blood cancers...one of the hazards of living in Plainfield was all those friggin chemical plants. I am sure that in Richie's case (ObDisclosure: Richie was my hubby) he got multiple myeloma from exposure to all those chemicals.
WOW... WOW... WOW!!! I remember going to the concert in Pittsburgh. When they had that spaceship come out, we lost our minds!!!!! How HOT was that??? Nice!!!
4:00 - 4:55 - absolutely breathtaking!! first time I saw it in Soul Deep - one of the best music documentary films! (sorry for my bad english, I am 15 yrs old boy from czech rep.:)
Couldn't fit in the other message box all I wanted to say. When someones feelin real funk, it's almost like a religious or out of body experience. It's unreal and hard to explain unless you been there. Not a care in the world, a feeling of being freer than free.
The beauty of funk was anything went. The more outrageous you were, the more free you were. The more REAL you were being with yourself. These guys were ahead of my time but none the less, being from Detroit, it's only natural to have grown up listening to their music. Is it true they used to record on 8 mile near Woodward in a music studio out that ways?
George Clinton's "swing down" makes the hair on my back stand (and I had none)

Couldn't fit in the other message box all I wanted to say. When someones feelin real funk, it's almost like a religious or out of body experience. It's unreal and hard to explain unless you been there. Not a care in the world, a feeling of being freer than free.

The beauty of funk was anything went. The more outrageous you were, the more free you were. The more REAL you were being with yourself. These guys were ahead of my time but none the less, being from Detroit, it's only natural to have grown up listening to their music. Is it true they used to record on 8 mile near Woodward in a music studio out that ways?
