Funkadelic - Funkadelic - Transparent Purple Color Vinyl Record

Funkadelic's self-titled 1970 debut returns on transparent purple vinyl as part of Org Music's Westbound Records reissue series, cut from high-resolution tape transfers. It is a radical collision of psychedelic rock, gospel, blues and soul, and a genre-defying statement that pushed Black music somewhere entirely new.Where Motown aimed for polish and crossover appeal, George Clinton's crew dove headfirst into distortion, improvisation and spiritual ambiguity. Backed by a ferocious young band including Eddie Hazel, Billy Bass Nelson, Tawl Ross, Tiki Fulwood and Mickey Atkins, the album trades convention for raw groove and heavy fuzz. "I Got A Thing, You Got A Thing, Everybody's Got A Thing" and "I Bet You" pulse with menace and joy, while "Mommy, What's A Funkadelic?" and "What Is Soul" frame the record with surreal monologues that blend street philosophy and space-age gospel.A foundational record of P-Funk, psychedelic soul and heavy funk, and a must for any serious collection.Side A 1.
