I’m another old white guy that digs the whole P funk Scene and I was lucky enough to record with a few of them. They were making so many records the including the Parlet and the brides of Funkenstein Which I got to play some keyboards on. Bernie loaned me his ARP string ensemble. What a generous and great human being Bernie was and then he left us. George Clinton was in the booth for a lot of those records. Every time I felt like I was taking it out to the edge George just wanted to go further. What a fun time.Glad to see this video

@@alifrombenhill3374 Sorry, but AutoTune is a computer program that didn't exist until the late 90s. They did use a device called a vocoder which is not the same. The vocoder uses the person's voice to shape the sound of a synthesizer played by someone, usually the singer. Unlike AutoTune both required lots of practice and talent to make sure the vocals and synthesizer were synchronized. Parliament Funkadelic used every piece of new technology that came out to see if they could create new sounds and grooves, so they would have used AutoTune if it had been around, but it wasn't.
@alifrombenhill3374 Жыл бұрын
@@RayVision3D I know all that but it's just an improvement on that tech. It's still voice altering. It was invented to make people sound better but people like TPain figured out how to use it differently. Only reason folks don't like it is cause so many copied and saturated the market. Same way people copied Funkadelic in that era. There were plenty of watered down copies in each era. That's all that is. Bootsy was super talented and from the era of performers. It was a different time. U couldn't even get on a stage without thousands of hours of practice and that's before a label put u with an A&R. Times changed and performing became less important with the rise of rap. Rappers that had good shows were looked at as soft or pretty boys like Hammer and Kane. The hip hop took over the world and changed all facets of music so now when a person has a great show we are surprised. Then there aren't labels making artists develop anymore. But it's so much raw talent out there. So much. You gotta look for it or appreciate thru the bias.

This is one of the greatest ever. Bernie Worrell was a classically trained musician, writing his first concerto before he was a teenager. George Clinton credits him with giving Parliament-Funkadelic their sound. Bernie used the precursor to the synthesizer/Moog and a Wa-Wa pedal to create that sound in Flashlight. The experimentations he conducted while in these bands heavily influenced the development of these electronic musical instruments.

The keyboard solo on Loose Booty from the America Eats it's Young album is just a face melter. Tales of Kidd Funkadelic, Atmosphere, ect. He was more than vital to Funkadelic and Parliament, and basically pioneered the synth bassline funk that became huge in the 80s and led into rap/hiphop (where I started making music on his formula before I knew it was his formula). Bernie was just special.

Parliament Funkadelic's and Bootsy's guitarists were always having their guitarists play wailing rock solos live years before Prince came out:Prince's first album came out in 1978. I think you should look up the 1977 track called "Slide" by the group Slave and listen to those two guitarists. "We" ( the brothas) been doing this a long time..., years before Prince. Prince was continuing much of the P-Funk tradition in lot of his music and for years his rock guitar playing was sorely underrated.

@@markabboud8564 Stupid comment by a stupid person. BOOTSIE AND OTHERS (Miles Davis and anyone who matters) worshipped Jimi who revolutionized the instrument and played it better than anyone. P Funk's best guitarist Eddie Hazel when he did 'Maggot brain' said he was channeling Jimi's soul. Great guitar work is more than just fast scale playing but taste and feel as well. *'Machine Gun' being a great example of what he alone could do, while 'Who Knows' sounds like P funk before P funk with Buddy Miles's rock steady beats and Billy Cox's funk bass. I know you were only joking but many these days are too imprressed by technique and do not 'get' soul or feeling. Your joke was in poor taste, sorry!

When I was very young, the 1st guitarist I was aware of was Hendrix. I recall the Band of Gypsys album with Hendrix w/ his strat on it laying on my folks' coffee table. He changed how the lead guitar was looked at forever. All of the greats after him mention him as a main inspiration. A few years later, I picked up the guitar myself and never stopped playing it. I learned how to play chitty versions of his songs by listening to a phrase then pick up the needle moving it back a mm, over and over and over.
