Double Platinum Record [Level 9]
Oops. Sorry I'm a little late with this topic but "I've been busy." :lol:
Well I selected these guys because I wanted to funk things up a little.
I really do like "One Nation Under A Groove" and it's probably my choice for best. I hedge a little here because I hear and play that song a lot. So for something completely different (I'm really doin' up the cliches today), I'll also put up there as another favorite "Mothership Connection (Star Child)."
Find them and destroy them!
No Longer Charting
Gosh! All I know is that there has to be more George Clinton CDs out there than almost anyone else.
A few faves are:
One Nation ( a given really)
P. Funk (wants to get funked up)
Tear The Roof off the Sucker
Up For The Down Stroke
Flashlight
Looks like I liked Parliament more than Funkadelic, eh?

Funkadelic: "I Wanna Know If It's Good To You", from waaay back-in-the-day. Psychedelic soul before I even knew there was such a thing. :)

I like "FlashLight" and "Knee Deep(Freak of Da week)".
"Atomic Dog" is okay.

Hey forrrce, I'm glad you mentioned 'Standing On The Verge Of Getting It On'. I like that one too and forgot all about it.

I´ll add two more not mentioned here: "Rumpfoltiltskin" and "Agony of defeet", both from their last period. Dunno about the spelling... :-?
P-Funk in general was great, although I think it was not really played at disco places, at least in my city. What was your experience?
It don't mean a thing (if ain't got that swing)

Tear The Roof Off the Sucker and "One Nation Under A Groove" were the two most frequently played songs at the discos in Boston.
Find them and destroy them!

I agree with a few others here; '(Not Just) Knee Deep' is easily the best Funkadelic track for me. A very influential track I think & it set the standard for early 80's funk as a whole. Much better than 'One Nation....'
...ya gotta beat the street......
