Parliament Funkentelechy vs. The Placebo Syndrome CD  (1977)

Mothership Connection album
CD $7.55  4.2 stars Audio Samples Definitive Album
Though the dark, psychedelic element that characterized the group's early '70s output has been replaced with an emphasis on rump-shakin' dance anthems, the superior musicianship, creativity, and unabashed weirdness of the Funk Mob's members is no less in evidence. The songwriting team of frontman George Clinton, bassist Bootsy Collins, and--perhaps most notably--keyboardist Bernie Worrell concocted the #1 smash "Flashlight." An ecstatic, amorphous journey through chugging, liquid basslines (the unbelievably fat, quadruple bass sound here was created on Worrell's ...

Parliament Clones Of Dr. Funkenstein CD  (1976)

Mothership Connection CD music
CD $7.55  5 stars Audio Samples
Following closely on the heels of MOTHERSHIP CONNECTION, the group's undisputed high-water mark, THE CLONES OF DR. FUNKENSTEIN furthers George Clinton's conceptual and musical master plan to funkify the world. THE CLONES unravels the Funk Mob's cosmology and populates it with a cast of mythological characters that includes Starchild (introduced on MOTHERSHIP) and the Funk overlord himself, Dr. Funkenstein. By this album, Parliament have almost completely moved away from the guitar-dominated psychedelic soul of their early '70s output and entrenched ...

Bootsy Collins Ahh...The Name Is Bootsy, Baby! CD  (1977)

Mothership Connection music CDs
CD $8.65  4.7 stars Audio Samples Definitive Album
1977's AHH...mines the psychedelicized grooves born of the P-Funk formula--adding equal parts superior musicianship, dance floor abandon, space-age thematics, and a silliness intended to subvert and liberate. Tracks like "Rubber Duckie" are unabashed dance anthems while "The Pinocchio Theory" amends the P-Funk philosophy with another anti-rule ("Fake the funk and your nose will grow"). AHH...has more than its share of slow-tempo, ballad-like numbers, but killer bass solos from the man himself make even these worthwhile. ...

VH1 Presents The Corrs Live In Dublin CD  (2002)

CD $7.49  4.5 stars Audio Samples
This audio document of The Corrs' Dublin homecoming concert has pretty much everything fans of Irish pop could wish for, including an appearance from Bono in his earthly incarnation, fresh from an audience with President George W. Bush. It's to the band's credit that the charismatic singer fails to steal the show, despite creditable efforts via an anthemized version of Ryan Adams' beautifully downtempo "When the Stars Go Blue," and a great, leering rendition of Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra's "Summer Wine." Somewhat ...

Parliament Up For The Down Stroke CD  (1974) Bonus Tracks; Remastered

Mothership Connection album
CD $6.49  5 stars Audio Samples Definitive Album
Though the heavier, harder, and more psychedelic Funkadelic was George Clinton's main outfit in the early '70, the creation of Parliament (named for Clinton's '60s soul group, The Parliaments, which included many core members of Parliament/Funkadelic) is at least as important in the history of P-Funk. In contrast to Funkadelic's acid-rock freak-outs, Parliament emphasizes vocals and horn riffs while highlighting tunes and melodies. Early efforts of the brilliantly creative songwriting team of George Clinton, Bootsy Collins, and Bernie Worrell (who would achieve apotheosis on MOTHERSHIP ...

Released in 1975 (a year after UP FOR THE DOWN STROKE), this record finds ringleader George Clinton and his company beginning to refine the group's uber-groove aesthetic. The earlier eclecticism of DOWN STROKE and OSMIUM, as well as the acid-drenched, electric-guitar-based freakouts of Funkadelic (a separate Clinton-fronted group that features an essentially similar lineup), ...

 Miss E...So Addictive (Explicit)
Missy Elliott Miss E...So Addictive (Explicit) CD  (2001)

Mothership Connection songs
CD $7.49  4.3 stars Audio Samples
"Get Ur Freak On" won the 2002 Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance. "Scream a.k.a Itchin'" won the 2003 Grammy Awards for Female Rap Solo Performance. SO ADDICTIVE finds Missy Elliott proving herself a woman to be reckoned with, particularly plainspoken in carnal matters. On "Dog in Heat," where she's joined by Method Man and Redman, Elliott delivers a forceful but low-key rap over little more than funky bass and drums, striking an arch-sexiness-plus-groovy-minimalism approach reminiscent of mid-period Prince. "One Minute Man" finds the fiesty femme issuing a sexual challenge over a track whose visceral sensuality provides incentive enough to enter into the gambit. Nevertheless, the rapper proves herself to be more than a sexual cartoon by varying her lyrical and thematic approach. On the percolating "Old School Joint," for example, Missy takes a conventional relationship stance worthy of the song's title, advising her suitor that it's best to "get to know each other" and be friends before becoming lovers. It's this juxtaposition of mindsets that keeps SO ADDICTIVE interesting. On the sonic side, the stop-time sample around which "Step Off" is built bears a distinct Latin flavor, and the infectious, propulsive rhythms of "Whatcha Gon' Do" bear witness to producer Timbaland's knack for nailing a distinctive, memorable sound with a minimum of fuss.

Do I have to put my handcuffs on ya mamma....do I have to keep you under lock and key...that's my favorite verse, this is feel good funk music, best Parliment did in my humblest opinion eventhough I like all their sounds...whether a new school(er) all in the "ketchup" you will be feelin' this old school mustard, just like the condiment, Parliment goes with everything....Must Have!

No true music collection is complete without Parliament. And if your iPod has a playlist called “Old School” without the master of funk, then delete that playlist.

5 stars You need some Funk Connections
Following Sly Stone,there was no one on the horizon in Funkland to take that next step into Immortalty. Then the Parlifunkadelicment Thang under the guidance of the earthbound yet universe spanning Star Child George Clinton. The Mothership Connection caught an unwary yet hungering world like a combination volcano,comet impact. Funk,soul,gospel,rock,combined into a cosmic gumbo sloppin on a defunkifying world-the vomit that was "classic Disco"was one negative reaction the rise of hiphop another. If you're a complete type get "Get it up for the Downstroke" first but if you have the courage and the hunger then get Funked Up on the De Clinton Code!!
