My signature comes from "Funkentelechy vs. The Placebo Syndrome". Some solid funk here.

I know

lawd that song got so many funny quotes in it

This jam is simply STANK!!!!!

Hell yea! They rocked this recently and i thought I was dreaming. Big ole smile on my face while singing "How's you FUNK-ENTEL-CHY?"

Not Parliament's best album (that goes to Mothership) BUT it's their second best. This album is like herion funk. Very dark, very edgy, very street. They simply were not fucking around with this album. And the title track....Bootsy just needs his ass kicked for coming up with the bass lines to this track. Deeply STOOPID. This album is very O.G. Pure gangsta before Hollywood and Snoop pimped the G and made it mainstream bullshit. This was BEFORE white kids in Montana was attempting to Crip walk. This is what all the O.G.'s blasted while pumpin' iron in the garage or just kicking it in the street about 20 deep. U fuck around and turn down the wrong corner, the ONLY way u got a pass was that u BETTER be playing this, LOUD in your ride.

With this tune, I'm always amaze how George came in with his dialog on the dime...Like it fits right there, what he just said

blackguitaristz said:

Very well put. They had already cemented their cosmic/funk status with "The Clones of Dr. Funkenstein" so securely, that they were able to squarely focus on a solid concept (from music to performance to funklore) with this album. Definite classic.

"Flashlight" was like an instant shot of funk to your brain, as in; the first time you heard it you knew it was a hit. And "Funkentelechy" was a strong Bootsy / George Clinton production. And the album as a whole followed up on the whole Sir Nose storyline nicely as well.

So funny, and yet SO SO SO TRUE!

A while ago I came across an original copy of the LP,
still sealed with comic inside.
I was amazed how much better that LP sounded than my cd copy of it

Even STILL to this day, Flashlight is all alone in it's funk glory. NOTHING is like it. It's so bangin' that it's actually silly. That's how off the hook the track is. It was sooooo ahead of it's time, that it STILL sounds ahead of what's out there today. Crazy. They were in such a zone and so in touch with what they were doing during 75-78 that all they could do was just hang on and cut as much as they could while they were in that zone.

I think I was the only white kid in my city who bought this record when it came out. Do you remember the poster that came with the record. Loved it, still do!!

There were so many images to absorb during that time. Was that the one where he was standing there with one leg up, with all those white foxtails hanging all over him, from his head-dress all the way down, while he was holding a miniature rocket ship?

PDogz said:

That's from the P,Funk Earth Tour album

fstop said:

You referring the poster of Sir Nose...

funkpill said:

Ahh, right. I loved that outfit, that picture.

Heck yeah, I remember the Comic Book and Poster from the "Funkentelechy vs. The Placebo Syndrome" album, wish i still had them both. Hey PDogz, man who didn't put that poster of Dr. Funkenstein up from the PFET album,. That was a tight poster. That album had a iron-on also.

MY BIG BREAK!!!
