Allow me to be one of the first to funk you up:







Buy all 3 greatest hits collection.....and learn something! And tell all of your friends about the P-Funk too.

It hard to believe, but there's a lot of young children/teens that really don't know about the funk, let alone George Clinton!

The closest thing this very young mainstream hip-hop generation think they know about funk is Snoop Dogg.

See, I wouldn't advise that route. I'd suggest starting with One Nation Under a Groove and Mothership Connection. If he has to go the compilation route, I would try to find 2-disc collections like Tear the Roof Off (or Gold) for Parliament. I definitely echo the sentiment that George's solo material should be bought last.

No Compute
{G Clinton, Garry Shider}

Ah, I awakened from a wet dream in which I was restless {?}
My imagination could no longer take me there
So I slid into my copping haberdashery
And gave into the original jones: SEX.

Now, my sexy jones was below sea level
The hornies occupied my being
I was at that stage where most men would say,
"Hey ho', it's your life or your lay."
But I was cooler than that.
She said, "No compute."

I spotted a lady who was also on the prowl
I could tell by her makeup, plus the scent was there
So I sashayed over to her, and, ah, spoke of my plan
She screamed and said, "Are you asking to make love to me?"
I said, "Is pig pussy pork?
Or you gonna play hard
After all the trouble you went through to get chosen?"
She said, ah, "No compute."

Finally, she said, ah, "I could, ah, probably go for what you're talking about.
But it's really about my birth control pill."
I said, "All looks are not alike, all holes are not a crack.
When in doubt, vamp.
Or at least ad-lib.
And of course you know that spit don't make babies."
She smiled, and said, "No compute."
But I could tell that she was getting interested {?}.

So off we went!
There was fun to be had, love to be made.
"Strange", I said to myself after I laid,
Smoking a last joint before I ??? to sleep
"What a man will go for when the hornies, ah, set in."
Well, suddenly as she laid there, mouth wide open, wig half off, snoring
Breath smelling like a 1948 Buick
I was sick with the filthies, and she smiled in her sleep
As if to say, "All looks are not alike, all holes are not a crack."

Yeah, this is one of my favorite songs and I know the lyrics by heart actually. I just never got the pig pussy line. It just comes out of left field.

Maybe I'll know some when I start buying his albums. I always get into older artists and am surprised at how much I recognise.

I'll give some of those albums a whirl and get back to you!
