Wonderful Video Box, just open it up!
Funkadelic 'I Got A Thing, You Got A Thing, Everybody's Got A Thing' from 1970. I love funky music and late 60s psychedelic hard rock and having the two fused together makes an awesome combination. This song by Funkadelic has to be one of their finest works of their early years yet, it is so wild and trippy and I love it!!! The song starts with some crazy wild guitar wah wah effects then moves into some superwild psychedelic trippy hard rock guitar fuzz distortion instrumentals, this song is unreal, and go the chromakey wipe effects in this clip too, this is gold!!!!!
This has to be one of the best funk/disco songs ever recorded and I thought it was so damn cool I decided to make a music video for this song using excerpts from various Parliament/Funkadelic concerts and TV appearences and a commercial, all blended with wipes and filter FX. Unfortunately I didn't have the right footage to make it look like George Clinton is singing on sync with the audio track so his vocals are offsync. Anyhow I absolutely LOVE this song, it has to be one of the coolest funky disco songs I've ever heard!!!!!

Oh my God! Incredible performance by Glen Goines. Rap fans will recognize this song as the basis for Dre's Let Me Ride which is a hip hop classic. Back to Parliament - this will blow your mind - like when George Clinton steps away and Glen takes over the lead mic. Incredible. I don't know anything about this concert except that they are shouting to Houston.
Studio version of their title track. I LOVE this song.

From their 1970 debut album, this sounds like Temptations on acid. Sampled on Beastie Boys "Car Thief" off of "Paul's Boutique". The longer version of this song is better, wish I didn't just have it on vinyl.

Relax people, this is massage for your brain-cells. In fact, if it wasn't for the revolutionary guitar-solo (which you will hear in this song), it would probably not be so special at all. The album - with the same name as the song - was released 1971 and also ranked #486 on Rolling Stones magazine's list of "the 500 greatest albums of all time". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maggot_Brain This is the original recording of the song, which means the song is over 10 minutes long(!), but do not fear, this is something very exotic for it's time...

Funkadelic - Uncle Jam (Snapper UK, CD, 1993. Original date: 1979) From the album "Uncle Jam Wants You" Lyrics: All right, All you inductees fall out and form some kinda line or something I want all you young ladies to stick your chests out And get your hips to move! 'Cause Uncle Jam wants you to join his army! Come on, y'all I know it's early, but you gotta get down. Go on and rock, Sue, rock!

Real stanky track from their self-titled debut album. Like a joint rolled in toilet paper, lol!
P-Funk opened the show with this joint. On the intro, they held this low key of E with all these crazy layers...the atmosphere was electric! The anticipation was killing me! And I wasn't even there! That's just the vibe I got when I saw this for the first time, LOL. DAMN! Hot.
Born in Los Angeles, but an Oakland resident by the age of 14, Too Short was the first West Coast rap star, recording three albums on his own before he made his major-label debut with 1988's gold album Born to Mack; his next four all went platinum. Anticipating much of the later gangsta phenomenon, he restricted his lyrical themes to tales of sexual prowess and physical violence, with the occasional social message track to mix things up. After the release of Gettin' It (Album Number Ten) in 1996, Too Short decided to retire, his status assured as one of the most successful solo rappers of the 1980s and early '90s, although that decision would prove short-lived.
Vintage! They were billed on this show as George Clinton and the Parliaments, but it's definitely a Funkadelic thang. I absolutely LOVE Fuzzy on this! George is high and crazy as hell...love him on this too! LOL Songs covered are: - Testify - I Was Made to Love Her (Stevie Wonder cover) - Friday Night August the 14th - Music For My Mother (Fuzzy does a bluesy improv)
The Canadian dollar bill is actually a little bit funkier than the the US dollar bill at the moment. This goes out to Diane, it's my favourite Funkadelic track. Thanks to Mariam(s) for the lookout.
