1. Mothership Connection
2. One Nation Under a Groove
3. Clones of Dr. Funkenstein
4. Maggot Brain
5. Ahh ... the Name Is Bootsy, Baby!
6. Motor Booty Affair
7. Mothership Connection Newberg Session
8. Greatest Hits 1972-1993 (Live Box Set)
9. The Awesome Power of a Fully Operational Mothership
10.Funkentelechy Vs. the Placebo Syndrome

It is difficult to narrow it down to just 10, let alone decide their order of greatness.

Peace,

Good subject. This has always been something of a pet peeve of mine. Most of the Parliament/Funkadelic albums have been uneven. They contain 1 or 2 masterpieces but then the rest of the album always seemed like filler. IMO the best P Funk album all the way through is George's "Computer Games". Of course "Atomic Dog" is a classic but "Man's Best Friend/Loopzilla" and "Get Dressed" are as funky as anything Parliament/Funkadelic ever did. "Computer Games" and "One Fun At A Time" were a nice tracks as well although not in the league of other P Funk classics. So to me, this album is as funky as it gets from start to finish.
