Rank all Parliament-Funkadelic Albums? I divided them up by sections. I put all the other artist together as various P-Funk members for extra fun. PRINCE: Always and Forever

impossible. but as a general rule I prefer the parliament sound over funkadelic Vanglorious... this is protected by the red, the black, and the green. With a key... sissy! | |

actually I just bought this nice book a week ago, it shows how unbelievably large their catalog is Vanglorious... this is protected by the red, the black, and the green. With a key... sissy! | |

Funkadelc: 8. Gloryhallastoopid (Or Pin The Tail on the Funky) 1. Stretchin' Out in Bootsy's Rubber Band . George: 2. You Shouldn’t-Nuf Bit Fish 3. Urban Dancefloor Guerrillas 4. R&B Skeletons In The Closet . I won't rank the various section because I haven't heard enough from it but I dig All The Woo In The World and Game, Dames & Guitar Thangs. | |

I'll give it a shot but I'm only doing Top 3.
Funkadelic (and these change on any given day because I'm more of a Funkadelic fan than Parliament- but that's just these days and I could easily be more of a Parliament fan on tomorrow):
Cosmic Slop Funkadelic Standing On The Verge
Parliament:
Clones Funkatentelechy Mothership
Bootsy:
Ahhh.... Stretching Out Player of the Year
The rest (only 2):

it was reduced at our local record shop so i only paid 10 bucks
I take it it as a kick-off to discover things I haven't heard yet, I try to find the struff on spotify or youtube and dig depper there. I have tons of p-funk albums and CDs, but this book makes you realise there is still so much more music out there to discover Vanglorious... this is protected by the red, the black, and the green.

Yes, I dig it but not nearly as much as Parliament's "P-Funk Earth Tour"- too choppy and incoherent (you hear the band's miscues) but does have a few moments. | |

Gloryhallastoopid is such an interesting record. It's the 1st one I got, although I have a hard time ranking their albums. Plus there are so many I don't have it's almost pointless to rate them since I've only got like 1/10th of them I think. . Side note though - First Ya Gotta Shake The Gate is really really cool. Needs more love. | |

Stoopid has some straight jams on it in the tradition of Mothership era P-Funk. Sheeeeit, Black Hole is one of the funkiest tracks they did. Now Trombipulation is a sneaker on ya. This records harks back to pre-Mothership days. The masterpiece, I mean masterpiece that is.....Long Way Around. This record may not "jam" like their other material, but it more than gets the job done with its powerful horn, vocal and string arrangements. You have to get some headphones out and get under the simple sounding grooves in this one and you will be rewarded with one of their most satisfying listens. In many ways Trombipulation is the most coherent Parliament offering of em all. | |

Interested to know your feelings on Trombipulation. IMHO, New Doo Review is the 2nd master work on that record. | |

Maybe because GC didn't produce the entire record. Let's Play House is my jam here, Junie worked on that. He only worked on 2 tracks on the album. Junie needed to be on evety track once he joined the Mothership. He's that good. PRINCE: Always and Forever

In my opinion they didn't make great albums, instead they made great songs. | |

P-Funk didn't just make these grand concept album statements, they made a whole series of concept albums that all fit into a storyline. | |

I need time to listen all their discography carefully, my statement has been made a little to fast to be honest. | |
