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 Landing of the Mothership at the Capital Center in Landover, Maryland was absolutely incredible. It was the most incredible show I ever witnessed.

@Righteouspowered No, he said they were "self-expressive in their own way that doesn't have to be synchronous WITH EVERYONE ELSE," I guess meaning the other artists outside of the the P-Funk collective. I don't think he would have to be off if he meant it how you took it anyway because after all, the concept of funk is contradictive in a way if you think about it. George said it's "the combination of hanging loose and togetherness at the same time." Being both tight AND loose.

They mislabeled "Mr. Wiggles" as "Aqua Boogie", but whatever, this documentary rules.

These were some hard working people...
Ricky Vincent is off though on the idea of them not being "synchronous." What does he think they mean by "On the One?"
