Uncut Funk!: Parliament Funkadelic (2of 6)

For over 30 years, countless Artists, Musicians, and Producers have been influenced, driven, enlightened, propelled, supported, compensated financially, and enhanced by the creative, unorthodoxed, funkdefied sound of this mega-group. Here everyone, is the history of the P!

P-Funk to all you maggot brains!

Those knowing Parliament Funkadelic, understand what is meant by that phrase; maggot brain... as well as the names like Starchild, Sir Nose and what a bop-gun is...

This epic Funkography was released in 2005, and was only broadcast on PBS (Public Broadcasting Station), in the U.S., a few times that year. However, this was the Writer's and Director's goal. To have the public educated, through an educational channel, on the history of the P, Parliament Funkadelic and George Clinton.

It's all good... And, after inhaling this in-depth well rolled hydroponic funkdefied joint, you will now have your license to the mothership connection. All aboard!

The original Funkadelic is like a gateway drug to psychedelic rock. I got into Parliament Funkadelic in 1979-80 and had evey LP at one time. If you love Funkadelic- check out the bands they immitated. Then you will understand where they were truely coming from, cuz this documentary doesn't tell it e.g. the liner notes taken from the Process Church, then Metaphysics translated into slang and introduced as Funk philosophy- ref (Good Thoughts, Bad Thoughts). These dudes were NOT ignorant

@Daintytwinkletoes Dug the hell out of Jimi Hendrix. They dug the hell out of alot of psychedelic bands, cuz they sound like half of them. Fifty Foot Hose, MC5, Sun Ra, Sly, Jimi Hendrix, High Tide, the list goes on.

[Daintytwinkletoes]

Does he say "We dogged the hell out of Jimi Hendrix" at 1:15 or "dug the hell out of Jimi Hendrix" ?
