| Why is this concert not on DVD? The Mothership Connection DVD was recorded before the P funk Earth Tour. |

This Band Deserves Better Than This Submitted on: 2008-12-19 |
|
| For a band with such a (deserved) legendary reputation as a live act, they are terribly represented by this album which suffers from generally terrible sound, obvious and awkward overdubs, and a careless, rushed overall feeling, with little coherence in track sequence. The playing (at least what you can actually hear) is first-rate and the live singing (again, whatever is distinguishable) sounds very good. Not to beat a dead horse in my reviews, but Glen Goins sounds fantastic even in this horribly recorded context. As stated above, the overdubs are beyond obvious. "Tear The Roof Off" sounds like someone playing a studio version on a stereo with crowd noise piped in. "This is The Way We Funk With You" is a delightful studio track, with Bernie Worrell's obvious classical background crucial to the arrangement and splendid vocals by Glen Goins and The Brides. For reasons unknown to me, this CD omits "Fantasy Is Reality", a gorgeous 50's style ballad from the original album. That is a GREAT track and worth getting (available on the "Tear The Roof Off 1974-1980" compilation CD. The singing of the brides on that song is beautiful and gives me chills when I hear it. Too bad it isn't present on this CD. I can't really recommend this album to anyone but diehard fans or completists. |

SUPERGROOVALISTICPROSIFUNKTICATION... Submitted on: 2008-07-09 |

Any band's studio output is only as good as what they do on stage...WAR, James Brown, Tower of Power, Earth, Wind & Fire, New Birth, etc., all put it way out there...but, the funk was simply too much.
Going to see Parliament/Funkadelic was almost like seeing the Rocky Horror Picture Show. The fans (funk[Clones]freaks) were there to fulfill the prophesy. They came to 'Do That Stuff', they were 'Children of Production', they came to 'Tear the Roof off the Sucka' they had to get more of that Funky Stuff...if I've got to explain, you'll never know. Anytime the Mothership landed, it was the 'Night of the Thumpasaurus People'...you always felt free to freak freely... |

Great Tunes, Lousy Mix Submitted on: 2008-02-23 |

| I was hoping for something that didn't sound like it was recorded in the upper bowl of an arena. Some songs are clear, others have overbearing crowd noise. "Do That Stuff" is stellar. |

I want the bomb I want the p funk Submitted on: 2008-02-13 |

| boy parlianment live in oakland california this is why a lot of west coast rappers sample p funk like too short, eazy e, ice cube, and dr. dre for example 76 was the year first song is wants to get funked up you get horn solos from fred wesley, and maceo parker funki up the crowd before gc and the gang get on there and just rises everybody'ss funk level up other funky jams are children of production, mothership connection, tear the roof off, and swing down sweet chariot with the late glen goins taking everybody to church gotta love it. dr. funkenstein is about 20 minutes boy the crowd gopes crazy on that one fred, maceo solo together while michael hampton gets hius hendrix on then bernie worrell does his mad genius act on keyboards you can't get more funky than this. |
