		What are you gonna call 'em?" He says, "I'm gonna call 'em the Brides of Funkenstein." I said, "The Brides of what?" He said, "The Brides of Funkenstein.
		They asked me to compare the Brides of Funkenstein to the Supremes, and I said, "We're basically like the Supremes except, you know, Rod Stewart could sing with us too." That's what George does, he mixes the rock 'n' roll and the funk and it works together just fine.

		The Brides were still Lynn Mabry and Dawn Silva at this time, although they added some backup singers known as the 'Bridesmaids' to help recreate the layered vocal effect found on their albums.
		Otherwise, it's a fairly straightforward performance of a truly strange song, with the Brides asking 'May we board you?' "Birdie" is truly hot, with Blackbyrd absolutely sizzling on guitar and the Brides getting down and dirty vocally.
		The 'Brides Maids' were three female backup singers, added to the live set to help recreate the original vocal textures of the album.

	Tuwa's Shanty: Brides of Funkenstein
		Brides of Funkenstein was one of many George Clinton/P-Funk offshoots, featuring Lynn Mabry and Bernie Worrell (who you might also have seen on Stop Making Sense), as well as other bits of the Clinton crew, including Phelps Collins, Gary Shider, Michael Hampton, and Bootsy Collins.
		The Funk or Walk LP is good for the most part, with a few standouts and one stinker ("Just Like You," a nine minute soul track that's so soft it makes Pee Wee Herman look like a contender).
		"Disco to Go," the album's opener, was a hit for the Brides, but it was the only one they had.

		RC: The second Brides album sees Lynn Mabry departing, and the addition of Sheila Horn and Jeanette McGruder as new co-lead singers.
		The result is another extremely solid album, with a number of dance tracks, funky numbers and ballads, balanced well.
		It can be found for anywhere between $10 and $30, with its availability being generally OK. The cover features a drawing of the Brides' legs under a giant cowboy hat.

	The Best of Parlet (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		These three ladies oozed funk while their counterparts, The Brides of Funkenstein, were more conservative.
		Parlet was a dammed funky group of ladies, they just somehow got lost in the shuffle of the growing P-Funk Universe and were often the victims of lack of promotion.
		Comment: chapter in the p-funk history book no one looks at,re-release the brides first 2 cd's and we'll be straight, first of all parlet was good but never got their respect.

	Deep Groove Encyclopedia - Gap Band
		The trio of brothers from Tulsa, Oklahoma -- Charlie, Robert and Ronnie -- tore up the charts with some of the hardest funk of the 80s, but the influence of the P was as clear as crystal glass.
		For example, the breakthrough hit "Oops Upside Your Head" steals an entire section from the Brides of Funkenstein's "Disco to Go" at a key interval of the song.
		The throbbing, clap-happy backing tracks were Parliament run through a sonic strainer, delivering a comparable level of funk power without the overload George Clinton would inject into the mix.

		The group was originally designed as a concept by George Clinton, as a counterpart to his original doo wop group the Parliaments.

		Most of the funkateers I have talked to over the years always wondered why the females from P-Funk have had such a limited output over the years, especially since bands like Parlet and the Brides of Funkenstein disappeared from the music scene in the early 80's.
		Dawn Silva, one of the original Brides has released her debut solo album under the title "ALL MY FUNKY FRIENDS"....
		Since we are entering a new millenium, and considering the state of the music you can hear on the airwaves today, the challenge was huge.

		The latter recorded two albums in the late '70s, the first of which is the good to excellent Funk or Walk [+].
		The melancholy "Just Like You" is a conventional soul ballad, and the glossy "When You're Gone" would have been appropriate for a Silver Convention [+] album.
		On Funk or Walk [+], the Brides [+]' two-woman lineup consists of Dawn Silva [+] and Lynn Mabry [+], both demonstrating that they have no problem handling the variety of things that Clinton sends their way.

		Their sets are wilder than the Brides' performances would later be.
		During the "Motor Booty Affair" tour, three vocalists are utilized to give singing support to both the Brides and P-Funk during their sets.
		Babs leaves the Bridesmaids around the same time Lynn leaves the Brides, so both groups join together and the Brides of Funkenstein become a trio.
