Gloryhallastoopid -- Or Pin The Tale On The Funky

Add to Cart$8.99 ... LP (reissue)
LP (Item 432228) Casablanca, 1979 -- Condition: New Copy

An overlooked later gem from Parliament -- a set that's very tight and funky, and which really picks up the groove first laid down on "Flashlight"! There's a tightly snapping approach here that rivals the best late 70s work by Funkadelic -- the later P-Funk mode that's even more focused on rhythms than before, and which gets away from the sloppy stuff to really hit home with the groove! Tunes are steeped in horny horns, wah wah guitar, and lots of electric keyboards -- and titles include "The Big Bang Theory", which is virtually a blueprint for the LA G-funk sound of the 80s -- plus the tracks "The Freeze", "May We Bang You?", "Party People", and "(GloryHallaStoopid) Pin The Tail On The Funky".  © 1996-2010, Dusty Groove America, Inc.
