  Funkadelic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Funkadelic was originally the backing band for the doo wop group, The Parliaments.
Due to legal difficulties between Clinton and Revilot, The Parliaments' label, the name was abandoned in favor of Funkadelic, which consisted of the same group of people (that is, both the former Parliaments and their back-up band, now both combined in the name "Funkadelic").
Funkadelic recorded and released its magnum opus, One Nation Under a Groove in 1978.

Pedro Bell (who did most of the Funkadelic album covers, starting with this one) drew small pictures next to each song in the liner notes, sylistically describing the crux of the song.
This is one of the most popular P Funk songs among fans of the group, and is often played in live shows.
George Clinton later compared himself to the subject of the song (a woman who becomes a prostitute to feed her children) because he was forced to use his celebrity-status in commercials (such as for the IMac) due to severe financial difficulties.

Funkadelic's self-titled 1970 debut is one of the group's best early- to mid-'70s albums.
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.
Successive albums portray Funkadelic drifting further toward rock, funk, and eventually disco, especially once Bernie Worrell began playing a larger role in the group.

 Funkadelic - Suitably Funky: Reviews, Track Listing, Audio Clips, and more ||| Music.com
With one of the finest (and largest) legacies in all of funk history, it's understandable why there are so many different Funkadelic [+] compilations (as well as their offshoot group, Parliament [+]) on the market.
Some of the releases can be a bit tricky to pinpoint, as Funkadelic [+] began as a psychedelic-hard rock-funk band (akin to Jimi Hendrix [+]) in the late '60s, but by the late '70s, had transformed into a more mainstream, dance-oriented act (during which time they obtained their greatest commercial success).
While not all of Funkadelic [+]'s best tracks from this period are included ("Not Just Knee Deep" is mysteriously absent), most of the expected standouts are included, including one of the late '70s great dancefloor anthems, "One Nation Under a Groove," as well as "Uncle Jam," "Funk Gets Stronger," and "Adolescent Funk," among others.

It's a shame there isn't a single-disc compilation of Westbound-era Funkadelic available, but this collection of all their A and B sides is a marvelous thing.
Of course, all of Funkadelic's genius is not contained on just these 2 discs and the one drawback is that many of their epic extended jams are edited down from their original form.
Firstly if you are new to the whole Funkadelic (or even Parliament) sound, then you should stop reading this review, and make your way over to the reviews for "The Very Best of Funkadelic" for a no-frills compilation of their most recognised work, that although uneventful (in terms of surprises) is solid nonetheless.

Funkadelic's Music for Your Mother collects the entirety of their recorded singles for the Westbound label, from 1969-1976, pre One Nation Under a Groove.
The late Eddie is seriously one of the true underrated guitar gods of rock and roll, an incredible, fluid, and emotional guitarist capable of straight funk grooves or absurdly emotional solo flights.
With a plaintive coo of a vocal involving the devil, a prostitute, a ghetto mother and her children, the track is almost undoubtedly Funkadelic's best single.

Cosmic Slop is a 1973 album by Funkadelic, released on Westbound Records (also a later compilation--see Funkadelic compilations).
The songs can be divided, approximately in half, as being straightforward R&B-sounding love songs and deep, philosophical and political songs ("This Broken Heart" vs "Cosmic Slop").
The lyrics to this song are inscrutable, and seem to exist primarily as window-dressing to focus attention on the music.

 Mega 94.9 fm - www.mega949.com - Latino & Proud!
Funkadelic's commercial peak occurred during the late '70s, when George Clinton and company issued several hit albums for the Priority label.
And it's that era that serves as the basis for countless Funkadelic compilations, while the group's earlier, more hard rocking releases (for Westbound) receive not nearly the same attention.
Covering a five-year period (1970's Funkadelic through 1975's Let's Take It to the Stage), Finest may be the best-assembled Funkadelic collection from this period yet, as both renowned band standards share space with several oft-overlooked tracks, which make their debut on any compilation.

GZ: These early Funkadelic albums are guitar dominated funky psychedelia, influenced in sound more by Hendrix than by Sly or James Brown.
There are also connections to the Detroit rock scene of that time, Iggy and the Stooges, and the MC5.
GZ: These are the greatest of the middle period Funkadelic, as danceability takes its rightful place as an element of the sound, and Pedro Bell takes on the album covers.
