George Clinton & The Parliament Funkadelic- (Not Just) Knee Deep(AMAZING SONG)

Funk

[@mikeaveli219]

every cookout, old head gathering, family reunions. good times. love the 15 minute version.

[@sueholtzinger6552]

Good for any celebration

[@se7en327]

One of the best orchestrated songs ever.

[@daddygray1]

You can't argue that this type of music was straight-up party and dance music - you didn't have to drink to feel this music!

[@sueholtzinger6552]

For sure

[@veronicacanty9575]

in my late teens or early 20' when I first heard parliament and fell in love, now almost 60 and still love them

[@sueholtzinger6552]

You and me both, 62 and still "it moves me and grooves me "

[@evelynestrada1]

This song is the BOMB, this was my song in the 70's. That BASS is BAD ASS. Parliament rules - Excellent dance music. Instead of this SHIT we have now. You all got it going on. THANX.

[@NomNomGohan]

That's just Bootsy, baby!!!!!

[@shaunwilliams4231]

15 minutes of uncut funk! !

[@alexandercarias123]

Shaun Williams gotta love it brotha

[@shaunwilliams4231]

[@Dubailand1555]

What you know about that guitar solo home boy?

[@shaunwilliams4231]

that it was mike hamptons debut solo!!

[@Dubailand1555]

Now I know and he did a slamming job, happy new year!

[@kengordon7462]

The masterpiece of the funk era. George Clinton, Bernie Worrell, Bootsy and Catfish Collins unleashed the funk and we will never be the same ever again.

[@missymeaky]

now this is what I call music. they don't make em like this anymore.. unfortunately. bring back the FUNK!!!!

Tweezaat First time I listened to P-Funk high I thought I was gonna blow up (in a good way lol)

[@yolondawaters1106]

I remember when this came out...they would come out with an album every November. Good times, aaah, good times. Now this is funk. Playing real instruments. People today will be looking at their instruments like Marvin Berry did in Back to the Future saying wow, I didnt know instruments could do this...lol! Famous line: Could this be me immersed in funk so deep...lovin' it!

[@emanuelrice1646]

This song, "Rapper's Delight", and "Do I Do" (both the full versions) will leave you shocked for over 30 minutes!

[@mattatack2the25]

This brings me back! wait I'm only 15!

[@cornellrobertson520]

Knee Deep and flashlight is the greatest song ever

[@jj_rj_gaming7800]

Another odd thing about this song. Phillipe Wynn just happened to stop by the studio as they were recording this(Him and Bootsy were old friends and He almost joined Funkadelic back in 1973, but went to the Spinners instead. And the rest is history........

[@markmcdonald4849]

Setting here recovering from a major heart attack. Came across this of George Clinton while recuperating. Being in high school in the Disco period 74-77 in the deep south. The track team coming back from a meet in Ruston, LA, we had won 🏆! The song called "Give Up the Funk" (Tear the Roof off the Sucker)” We called it the disco track dance!The whole school bus was shaking!!! Our victory dance⁰!!!!!I believe our form of personal music system was 8 track and cassette. On the bus it was was a cassette player in a boom box. 1977 before every track meet! I'm old enough to remember the first car entertainment system. You could place 5 or 6 45 inch records in the box start your engine and off with favorite date!😂 pain through replacing after one meet everybody predicted we were lose, we won. We had enough money after that to buy a 6 pack of Olympic Beer and a fifth that cheap rot gut Booms farm apple wine our discussion not about girls and Graduation, but would George Clinton get mad if we just called all his bands "george clinton bands" You know he had four bands: Parliament-Funkadelic, Parliament, The Parliaments and Funkadelic. It was deep. By the finish of the 6 pack Olympic, especially the Boone's Don't think we ever came out with an answer. But good times at 65, seems like yesterday
