Parliament Funkadelic - Do That Stuff - Mothership Connection - Houston 1976

http://gravityworld.tv/Video_Content/pfunk.html

It was Halloween night and Parliament Funkadelic was about to tear the roof off the
Houston Summit, ready to bless the crowd with their cosmic brew of interplanetary
funk. George Clinton, Bernie Worrell, Bootsy Collins and the rest of the P-Funk
collective were riding the success of their first Top 5 R&B hit, "Give Up The Funk (Tear
The Roof Off The Sucker)," a track that had earned them the kind of radio play that
would bring the masses out to see them live in a stadium-sized arena. The group was
only five dates into the tour when they arrived in Houston, but they were definitely
ready to take it to the stage for an out-of-this-world show like no other.

Taped on October 31, 1976, these seldom-seen performances at the Houston Summit
represent Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic in their ʼ70s prime, in the era of their
Mothership Connection and The Clones Of Dr. Funkenstein LPs—a rare opportunity
for everyone to get their proper dose of The P-Funk.

@jam4him1 I first saw the Mothership Landing at U of MD's Cole Field House... FESTIVAL STYLE seating ;) I think at that point, the Washington Colesium was either closed or hosting local roller derby events.

I remember that night! I was only 11 years old and my parents wouldn't let me go see Bootsy, but I'm glad I had the funk!

Sounds like they recycled that guitar line from "You can't miss what you can't measure". Great jam. This video is legendary...
