I don't know what he was trying to achieve back in the '80s with those comments besides trying to be an all-out rocker. Prince was never ONE thing anyways. he was trying to say "out with the old, in with the new" with a little punk-ass thrown in to say "i'm the new" It didn't work.  Now he's old school. | |

The unofficial Funkadelic was on Soul Train in 1981, promoting their album Connections & Disconnections (Now known as Who's a Funkadelic). This was the version of Funkadelic, that George Clinton had nothing to do with. | |

When it's all said in done....
Why do I get the feeling George and his crew never gave a damn if they ever appeared of 'Soul Train' or not. The mothership was always a bit anti-establishment anyways.  | |

It does feel like a "take it or leave it" from their end. It didn't hurt them that they weren't invited to Soul Train. | |

Parliament may have never been on there but Funkadelic was. I saw them a years ago when WGN was airing old episodes. I think it was from 1980 and I had never heard the two songs they performed.

Here is the episode: http://www.kewego.com/vid...ftlCH.html AGAIN...those guys were not "Funkadelic", they were just former buddies of George Clinton that couldn't get a hit. They split up right after this performance too. George wasn't having it. Fuck outta here with that.
Don Cornelius inviting "The Funkadelics" is like him inviting "The Supremes" without Mary Wilson or Jean Terrell. | |

Like the Temptations, The Supremes, etc. That's the confusing truth about it. It IS a brand. But George and the boys were never considered to be qualified on "Soul Train". Anyway, it wasn't as if George and 'em were ready for mornings anyway. The funk freaks always come out at night.  | |
