CANT SIT STILL!.| FIRST TIME HEARING Parliament - Pfunk (Wants To Get Funked Up) REACTION

@@jon-pauldupont5746 Absolutely, Fantastic music from a bygone era, You can't go past the Funk Maestro George/Parliament/Funkadelic, they are synonymous with FUNK however I think you missed my point. L.A.B are bringing back the Funk right now (a groovy funk) so I thought I'd introduce them to those that aren't familiar with music from other countries. Six60 & L.A.B and a couple of vocalists, Teeks & Stan Walker (live with the Levites) have been turning heads and ears onto their diverse sound (a fusion of Funk, Soul, RnB, Blues, Jazz, Gospel, Rock or Reggae wrapped in island rhythms).

My brother Forrest Lee Jackson and I loved this jam growing up in Savannah Georgia 🇬🇪. They were always around Savannah but Daddy wouldn’t let me take Forrest to any of their concerts because he said we’d be the Only White teenagers there 😂😂😂 Flashlight 🔦 is our all time favorite to this day though! I plan for it to be playing as friends and family are leaving my future funeral… Got to see George Clinton preform Flashlight 🔦 as The Very Last Song 🎶 in 2004 when Savannah held a music festival in Forsyth Park. My son Alex got the chance to enjoy with thousands that Friday evening!!!🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶

[@colibri1]

P-Funk stands for Parliament-Funkadelic. Parliament and Funkadelic were two funk groups that mostly consisted of the same members, and both had great funk hits. Two by Funkadelic that you will love are "One Nation Under a Groove" (1978) and "Knee Deep" (1979). Before they were a funk band, Funkadelic was a psychedelic band, and they have a 1970 song with great guitar work called "I Got a Thing" that you might like. Also, George Clinton was the core of Parliament and Funkadelic and y'all would really like his solo stuff like "Atomic Dog," a huge hit in 1982.

[@jackies5481]

Before they had that psychedelic song, George Clinton and the Parliaments (which included some of the original members) had a few doo-wop songs released.

[@NotBenCoultry]

I got so funked up tonight that I keep reading Clinton as Carlin in your comments and I can't seem to recompose myself because of the way that would change history lmao

[@chrisa4695]

The P in P Funk actually stands for pure as stated in the liner notes to Motor Booty Affair. I’m old enough to remember when Funkadelic was the better known of the two bands and DJ’s would refer to them as “The Funkadelic Parliaments.” There are old concert posters floating around the internet with Funkadelic first. After this song was released people thought that PFunk stood for Parliament Funkadelic. In this song their using drugs as an analogy for funk. P Funk, “uncut funk, the bomb”. “Don’t want my funk stepped on” we’re all drug terms indicated their brand of funk was 100% pure. Not deluted. Parliament’s style of funk was more rooted in jazz and Funkadelics rooted in psychedelic rock. After they added bass synthesizers in the late 70’s and with Funkadelic’s move to Warner Brothers the styles began to merge. Also, Parliament was a horn based band and Funkadelic was guitar based.

[@rafehr1378]

'Nam days. Funkadelics tunes we played; "Maggot Brain"; March to the Witch's Castle; "CosmicSlop"; "You can't miss what you can't measure". Black Congress & LA Raza, Hooch music.

There was the whole Parliafunkadelicment thing. Parliament, Funkadelic, Bootsy's Rubber Band, The Brides of Funkenstien, The Clones of Funkenstien. All pretty much the same people with George Clinton acting as the pilot of the Mother's hip.

[@psjonesi55]

Fred Wesley(Trombone) and the Horny Horns Joined Parliament/Funkadelic after leaving James Brown. This was their debut collaboration. George Clinton was writing and producing Parliament/Funkadelic (P-Funk), The Parlets, the Brides of Funkenstien. George and Bootsie Collins also mentored and advised the Zap Band on their first album.

[@heidikoch-northrup8888]

Yes, George’s voice is nice and buttery!!! Love!

[@misterdoe]

The horn soloists, Maceo Parker on sax and Fred Wesley on trombone, were in James Brown's band (The JBs) with Bootsy Collins the bassist. That's why George threw in "Ain't it funky now," the title of one of James Brown's biggest hits, about halfway through the sax solo. Singer Philippe Wynne, also briefly in the JBs, would collaborate with P-Funk a bit later.

[@Mike-rk8px]

You two need to listen to the entire Funkadelic album “Maggot Brain”. It’s their best album by far, and it’s dominated by guitar wizard Eddie Hazel, who is on the Jimi Hendrix level of guitarists. This is one album you will want to play LOUD, especially while driving.

[@mj2you22]

I will play this forever and ever...since 1974 and I will never give it up. I love to put it on blast when I am around a bunch of squares who just don't get it. It serves them right for being in my space 😳🤣 Loooved seeing you guys jam to this! I would so love come and show ya"ll how we did it and I can still work it out...yaaass I can! I should make a video for you, that would be funny as hell.

[@seanswinton6242]

Same here. I was 6 years old when I first heard them. Being the youngest of 5, I was exposed to tons of music. Ohio took its Funk seriously. It started with King Studios and James Brown with Bootsy Collins. Tons of great bands you know. I soon picked up a saxophone afterwards and life changed. It changed further when, in pursuit of my sister her boyfriend brought Bootsy Collins to the house! I lt was late night a I was in PJs. My sis has a picture of me holding up one of Bootsy's gold records with a silly grin n my face. 😂

[@joshuawater3493]

Atomic dog is 🔥 please listen

[@mddye1]

Parliament -Funkadelic are the same group that used different names because of a label dispute. They became known as Parliament-Funkadelic after a while. George Clinton was the leader and some of the main songwriters was George Clinton, Bootsy Collins, Bernie Worrell and Junie Morrison. They were REALLY big in Black music in the 70s and 80s. and sporadic hits after that. the Members came from James Brown band and Ohio, and NJ. Absolutely incredible band live. Some of the best musicians I've ever seen. They had 15-20 members on stage sometimes.. P-Funk, Mothership Connection, We Want the Funk, Flashlight, Funkentelechy, Aqua Boogie, Knee Deep, One Nation Under a Groove, Maggot Brain, Dr Funkenstein, Atomic Dog, and other hits. Great dance music. A lot of Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg's music and a lot of other rap artist sampled this group's music.

Bootsy Collins - say no more. MASTER OF FUNK!

One Nation Under the Groove is one of my many favorites from Parliament also. You can’t go wrong with their music.

[@wandacable3739]

Parliament was very much a visual experience. Always watch the live versions, you will love it!!

[@1960317]

I didn't see this comment before. The rythmic foundation for this group and sound is the Godfather, James Brown. James created the funk groove emphasizing the downbeat, the one. Some of members of James' band that with Parliament are Boosie Collins on Bass, Maceo Parker on Sax, and Fred Wesley on Trombone. Remember James calling out Maceo or Fred before their solo.

[@ronaldmillner6387]

If you notice Bootsy is playing and saying Make my funk the Pfunk on bass. The horns are the original horn players from James Brown along with Bootsy on bass. Keyboards and synthesizers is the late Great Bernie Worrell

[@debrabeck9630]

Dance how you like - Funk not only moves, it can remove! PFunk is the combo of Parlaiment- Funkadelic, and George Clinton put them together to groove. Bootsy Collins on bass left for a bit to form Bootsy and his Rubber Band, but he eventually reunited with Clinton. With so many members, they could play for 3-4 hours straight. If someone took a break, there were others there to keep the crowd funked up. I have probably seen them more than any other group thanks to their many appearances at the Memphis in May Music Festival. My kids grew up on them, too. Grateful to have lived in a town that values music of all kinds - Memphis, TN. I’m also on board for you reacting to Tear the Roof Off the Sucka. (Might not be the official name, but some people in the comments have it.) Welcome to the Mothership Connection!

Believe it or not, Parliament was once an R&B singing group. In the 1960s the Parliaments had a hit titled, "Testify." The reason there is a group called Parliament and one called Funkadelic is because of some label dispute over ownership of the "Parliament" name. George Clinton, leader of Parliament decided to go with a different name: Funkadelic. Then through the 1970s he released great music--different albums--under both names, Parliament and Funkadelic. Together their sound is P-Funk.
