OMG.The best.Blue satin kkk guy with Panther shades,skin tight jumpsuit dude doin the watusi.My soul has been psychedelisized. The most brilliant combination of visual theatre,social commentary and poly rhythmic liberation to ever shake down the chrome highway of the American mind.

I was a dancer on the Upbeat TV show from 1968 -1971 and was there the day this video footage was shot. The Funkadelic initially rehearsed the number dressed only in diapers. The show's director informed them that Upbeat was a family show and they couldn't perform in the "outfits". They changed into the attire that you see in the video clip. That and other behind-the-scene moments ard detailed in the book "She Can Go Where Pretty Girls Go" By Constance Gibson.
