Funkadelic was a driving force for the the soul/funk movement during the 1970s. The group was led by George Clinton. They played along along side Parliament, a doowop group also led by Clinton. After being signed on the label Westbound in 1968, they began experimenting with harder guitar driven psychedelic music inspired by Jimi Hendrix [...]
Já destaquei o álbum como disco da semana, hoje destaco a música, através de um videoclip amador. Como o importante é mesmo a música aqui fica mais uma vez todo o esplendor de George Clinton e o seu colectivo Parliament/Funkadelic. para ouvir bem alto e aos pulos... lindo e fabuloso.
A minha viagem por sonoridades mais funk levou-me às raízes do género e, posteriormente, por aí adiante, até que colei neste clássico do pfunk ou funk psicadélico. "One Nation Under A Groove" dos Funkadelic é um clássico não só do género, mas da música em geral, os meus ouvidos andam de tal forma viciados no disco que alterei os meus planos originais e seleccionei-o como disco da sem

Funkadelic - By Way Of The Drum [2007]A previously-unissued album from Funkadelic originally done for MCA Records at the end of the 80s, but only now finally seeing the light of day. The set's a continuation of the P-Funk groove that George Clinton set down on his solo albums for Capitol during the earlier part of the decade and it shows a bit of a transformation of that sound towards some of the

Funkadelic - Free Your Mind And Your Ass Will Follow(1970)256kbps It's one of the best titles in modern musical history, for song and for album, and as a call to arms mentally and physically the promise of funk was never so perfectly stated. If it were just a title then there'd be little more to say, but happily, Free Your Mind lives up to it throughout as another example of Funkadelic getting busy and taking everyone with it. The title track itself kicks things off with rumbling industrial noises and space alien sound effects, before a call-and-response chant between deep and chirpy voices brings the concept to full life. As the response voices say, "The kingdom of heaven is within!" The low and dirty groove rumbles along for ten minutes of dark fun, with Bernie Worrell turning in a great keyboard solo toward the end -- listening to it, one gets the feeling that if Can were this naturally funky, they'd end up sounding like this. From there the band makes its way through a total of
Funkadelic - Funkadelic (1970)256kbps Funkadelic's self-titled 1970 debut is one of the group's best early- to mid-'70s albums. Not only is it laden with great songs -- "I'll Bet You" and "I Got a Thing..." are obvious highlights -- but it retains perhaps a greater sense of classic '60s soul and R&B than any successive George Clinton-affiliated album. Recording for the Detroit-based Westbound label, at the time Funkadelic were in the same boat as psychedelic soul groups such as the Temptations, who had just recorded their landmark Cloud Nine album across town at Motown, and other similar groups. Yet no group had managed to effectively balance big, gnarly rock guitars with crooning, heartfelt soul at this point in time quite like Funkadelic. Clinton's songs are essentially conventional soul songs in the spirit of Motown or Stax -- steady rhythms, dense arrangements, choruses of vocals -- but with a loud, overdriven, fuzzy guitar lurking high in the mix. And when Clinton's songs w
Funkadelic - Cosmic Slop(1973)256kbps With a much more stripped-down version of the band, if the credits are to be believed (five regular members total, not counting any vocalists), Funkadelic continued its way through life with Cosmic Slop. A slightly more scattershot album than the group's other early efforts, with generally short tracks (only two break the five-minute barrier) and some go-nowhere ballads, Cosmic Slop still has plenty to like about it, not least because of the monstrous title track. A bitter, heartbreaking portrait of a family on the edge, made all the more haunting and sad by the sweet vocal work -- imagine an even more mournful "Papa Was a Rollin' Stone" -- the chorus is a killer, with the devil invited to the dance while the band collectively fires up the funk. Elsewhere, the band sounds like it's more interested in simply hitting a good groove and enjoying it, and why not? If introductory track "Nappy Dugout" relies more on duck calls and whistles than anythin
