The Parliaments - Heart Trouble

[@tayloroquinn1976]

Great track. Of course, this would evolve into "You Can't Miss What You Can't Measure" on the 'Cosmic Slop' album.

[@chrisedwards3214]

Taylor Coble and before that heRt trouble which ended up on toys

[@dougfraidenburgh671]

Wow, it's interesting hearing this song. Great song, although for me "You Can't Miss..." is probably my favorite ever Funkadelic track. The song is just absolutely funky. The pinnacle of Funkadelic.

[@michaelbrown2220]

That is correct!

[@dennisscott1610]

Sure did , now didn`t it !!!

[@ludojo662019]

Man, George Clinton is an awesome song writer, even at that age.

[@christinetaylor4607]

Wow. Today is The Day. The First Day that l have Ever heard the Funkadelic track with same lyrics.. it's MEGA. Cannot believe I missed out on Mr Clinton's version. I now have to make up for lost time. BRILL. Thanks guys. Gem. HX.

Great Northern Soul track. Big sound at the UK Northern Soul allnighters!

[@qwisp]

George Clinton was responsible for phenomenal music from the very beginning.

[@fluffmcmuff6801]

George Clinton is one of the most influential musicians of all time.

[@spainpete7483]

George is a f. ing genius 🎶🎶🎶👌

[@chrisedwards3214]

Nothing in pfunk is new amazing how they recycled their own songs over and over again

[@chrisedwards3214]

Gc had the motown musicians backing him the funk brothers also played for golden workd cause berry was cheap

[@johnpearson7734]

O.d school detroit they don't get much better

[@KC______]

Isn't anyone else going to mention Ron Banks' lead on this tune? He went on to join The Dramatics... On the Strength 💪🗽✊🇺🇸

[@gnosferatu667]

Really?! I thought it was George Clinton singing lead in his own group on a song he wrote! I didn't know Ron Banks was associated with The Parliaments at any point. Interesting stuff!

[@KC______]

@@gnosferatu667 Can't you hear that it's Ron Banks? I mean it's a much younger Ron Banks but he had a distinctive voice. You are aware that Telma (can't remember her last name) of Tony Orlando and Dawn and from the 'Gimme A Break' tv sitcom once sang with The Parliament-Funkadelic Thang as well? She can be heard on 'I'll Bet You' among other tunes on background vocals.

[@gnosferatu667]

@@KC______ I can hear it tho! And I didn't know Telma from Gimmie A Break sang with P Funk either although I do know she could sing good.

[@jamesbondjr.85]

Doesn't sound like Ron Banks.

[@carouselred8994]

??? Detroiter Banks was on background on this, but George is singing lead. Ron did not "join" the Dramatics, he founded the group in 1964. These facts are readily available.

[@oleplanthafer7034]

Way superior to the '66 cover by the fittingly named "Eyes Of Blue" who were forced to record this (in the UK) obscurity by some Decca-executive with a great taste in music, no doubt. They did a great job, but ultimately illustrated why blue-eyed soul is only second best in 99% of the cases...

[@jody808]

one of my fav PFunk early singles

[@broace2966]

True

[@chrisedwards3214]

If george could goo back.in time to 1965 i wonder what would he tell.his younger self

[@yuridiogo5528]

PFUNK DOOWOP 60s

[@toneyisaiah408]

George Clinton,1960s.

[@flopsymopsy6337]

Listening to this during Coronavirus lockdown April 2020 thinking of a very special person who introduced me to this song. Always in my heart mister O x

[@capitol7950]

It's funny thing how certain records rekindle memories of people, places, good times and bad times, yip nsoul never leaves u.

[@markbonekamp3989]

AWESOME TRACK1

[@toneyisaiah408]

That is absolutely correct.

[@numbernine2207]

love it!

[@mrstep2me]

George wrote this with Sidney Barnes.

[@MISTERMOODYHYADD]

Didn't they remake this song later?

[@ernesthardison3610]

Moody Hyadd yeah "you can't miss what you can't measure " funkadelic's "cosmic slop "album

[@chrisedwards3214]

George always remade his songs over and over

[@MrSnappy67]

@@chrisedwards3214 Yeah, there's a Free Your Mind outtake version from 1970 on the Toys collection, too...(highly recommended!).

[@dustin85677]

Who disliked this???

[@thomasminarchickjr.7355]

I don’t know, but I bet their nose grew. No funk or soul in ‘em. This is perfection

[@DavidSmith-cx9cu]

Are the funk brothers playing on this?

[@chrisedwards3214]

Yes

[@colinwilkinson5450]

Cracking tuneeeeeeeee

[@Kurosawa75]

💎

[@misterb7070]

Sounds like a Motown knockoff

[@capitol7950]

Fair percentage o nsoul records tried to emulate motown. Its 60s soul

[@duanemarshall7612]

George was under Barry Gordys wife's record label.

[@chrisedwards3214]

​@@duanemarshall7612the same musicians that played for Motown played for golden world cause berry wasn't paying them enough so they went and played for the competition which was Ed wingate

[@leonthecanteen5443]

You've obviously never heard Funkadelic
