The greatest band on earth was THE JAMES BROWN BAND. THE BIGINNING OF THE ORIGINAL FUNK AND WHAT ELSE CAME FROM THAT START. Some of those musicians came from the JAMES BROWN BAND. ALL the funk licks and grooves had ALREADY BEEN DONE BY THE JAMES BROWN BAND. This is an off shoot of funk which was created and recorded first and foremost by The JAMES BROWN BAND. Clinton put a psychedelic touch on it, but it was already done. Clinton continued what had already been created done and introduced to the upcoming musicians who had the ear to hear. Bernie IS SLAMMING !!!!!
Hey guys, it's August 29, 2024 and I'm over here grooving to one of my favorite funk groups of all time. These boys are truly the bad boys of FUNK!! For me it is you and James Brown. Y'all have the signature of funk established, and nobody can take it away from you.I' ll always Love you guys❤❤❤
Ray Davis is truly the greatest Bass singer in the universe next to the late Melvin Franklin..R.I.P. Ray...he also was the first bass singer to replace the late Mel Franklin in The Legendary Temptations Temptations Temptations Temptations
This gang is made of gifted, creative, and innovative musicians. They added so much color and transformed funk music into something special and so distinctive.
Bernie Worrell, what else can you say...he is singularly the baddest cat ever. When your training and natural gift of perfect pitch line up, thats chosen by God stuff, Bending time and notes, seemingly with little regard to anything else, to poly rhythms in the moment and on the fly, and when the band joins in.....Maaan....hottest band of all time.
A genuinely great person to meet who always encouraged musicians to go to the next level. Miss you very much. No arrogance at all from this musical genius.
Yea no Glen is the only issue his voice in general but on mothership connection his soul was unmatched but this combo on the keys wizard of woo and one of ohios players finest being the fan of key I am I don't know if it can get better then those two man
Yea RIP Glens voice had soul that was just untouchable man had a gift he's the only one u need in here bootsy would be cool too but skeets just as great
Anyone that does not think Eddie Hazel was an absolute beast just listen to him grove at 12:40 on. He could blend in magnificently and really become a beast at anytime during a set.
No disrespect to Michael Hampton because he is a PFunk legend and has had truly amazing live performances, some of which I've been lucky enough to have seen. But Eddie outshines him throughout this entire concert. Eddie was able to make each song better whether he was on rhythm or lead (standing on the verge from this concert is a perfect example of his ability to do both with ease). Even his extra rhythm on cosmic slop made the song noticeably better than other performances from the same tour. Eddie was in his prime here and it's a shame he wasn't around and on tour more during the late 70s heyday. He was in a zone here in Houston 1979 and is proof that he is one of the best guitarists of all time
@@ChemistryAmsterdam Other legendary musicians have described Bernie as a "genius" and he's considered the Jimi Hendrix of the keyboard by his peers. Not to mention Bernie is a child prodigy who gave his first concert at 4 years old and was playing with orchestras by the time he was 10. www.encyclopedia.com/education/news-wires-white-papers-and-books/worrell-bernie
Bernie has a very rich music vocabulary...so he can improvise forever. Notice how he went complete Count Basie/Duke Ellington, late 30's "Lindy Hop Swing" mode, at 11:59. Bernie was one of the most inspirational musicians to play with. RIP, Woo...we gonna always make sure you "git credit" for your incredible contribution :-)
so true. you'll be listening to a live performance and be like how the hell does this man sound as good, if not better live than on the studio track. truly a legend
Y'all trippin Hard. That first Mutiny album is bad ass. What More Can I Say, Voyage to the Bottom of the P, some serious cuts on there. The 2nd one is good too
@@mcmarcuschapman mutiny made some good jams but nothing ground breaking they sounded like pfunk hand me downs gc was on some other stuff by the time they came out
Much Thrust was a Bernie song on his All The Woo In The World album. Insurance man for the funk was the best song on the album. They should have performed that instead of Much Thrust. The show was still on the one 🤘🤘🤘🤘!
Sounds like "wake up when they wiggle the one"? Hard to tell lol. It's not uncommon for me to have heard a p-funk song a hundred times before I realize what a certain bit of dialogue is lol
The greatest band on earth and beyond the stars...

With all due love and respect for these guys! But nobody can sing swing down like Glenn!
George Clinton..pure musical genius!! 🎼 Keeping the Funk on the ONE...

There can never be too much funk. Just like marijuana, there has NEVER been a casualty from too much pure funk.
Unlike the hilarious dead roach syndrome, as in, when drugs are your woo and you over voo, it could happen to you, ok, boo
Yo,Madtiger!!
PREACH IT BROTHER!!
TELL EM' ON THE
MOUNTAIN, BRO!!
Like here, Bernie did "Ragtime" and took you 'Church' and then some
R.I.P. Bernie Worrell
Seen this show live. ears didn't unstop till the next day they don't do it like this no more.
1 great tune the man with the deep. Voice big props Mr George Clinton and the great band wow
That's Ray Davis with the deep voice
What a freakin band!!!! Perhaps the best P lineup ever. Fly on Uncle Bernie
no Glen ( swing down i wanna riiiiiide ) Goins RIP
They had Junie Morrison and Bernie Worrell on keys at the same time!!!
Let that sink in.
Yea no Glen is the only issue his voice in general but on mothership connection his soul was unmatched but this combo on the keys wizard of woo and one of ohios players finest being the fan of key I am I don't know if it can get better then those two man
Gary was representing! Great performance by a more than legendary band.
Funkadelic at that time was blowing any and all band off the stage. Bar none
The piano is on point.
that's Tyrone Lampkin on drums. Jerome Brailey left the band during the Flash Light tour of the previous year.
Why did he leave?
@@DJGary0910only reason ANY of them left… $$$
Garry Shider is the Funk🤜🏾🤜🏾🤜🏾🤜🏾
Man !! So much talent on one stage. I woke up jammin to my favorite group of all times. My hat off to the whole group !!!!!
I attended the P-Funk Earth Tour in 77. I should've gone to the Aqua Boogie too.
They don't make bands like this anymore!
Eddie, garry, Mike, skeet, tyrone, Bernie the gangs all here
Glenn is missing ...
@@boogienights828 cause he was dead
Yea RIP Glens voice had soul that was just untouchable man had a gift he's the only one u need in here bootsy would be cool too but skeets just as great
skeet on bass,eddie on guitar..a funk groove out of this world..thanks for the upload on some of the aqua boogie tour keep the funk alive.
Bernie was playing the ish out of that piano.
Grove from the deep listen to this tune wow this song.playing nowsuper tune wow
Anyone that does not think Eddie Hazel was an absolute beast just listen to him grove at 12:40 on. He could blend in magnificently and really become a beast at anytime during a set.
Leo Waller thanks for the time stamp. I LOVE Eddie Hazel and have been looking for any of his post-1971 videos. Thanks
He looked so healthy and into the funk!

@michaelcoburn2975 Without a doubt my man. Totally agree with you here. Eddie was, "the truth"! One of the greats in terms of playing guitar.
He's easily one of the greatest to have ever picked up a guitar he's criminally under-rated too
The horns !!
Horns Indeed 🤜🏾🤜🏾🤜🏾
he is really on the mothership, high as a kite
Love that old school funk
Nice of you to say...🤘🏾
Fly on , Bernie and Junie too! RIP
REST IN P RON FORD!
I didn't know he passed away. Big ups to Ron Ford !
From the ocean comes a notion one with real eyes realize that's Sting Ray Davis !!!
The best ever there Will never be a band like this funk on
I love how this is the band that made EWF tighten up and get on the ONE
Is it me or is Bernie Worrell clowin on the keyboards, Will somebody else watch this video & let me know that bernie is clowin on the keys.
I think hes never serius on the key ✌🤩🔦

If by clowning, you mean genius...then yeah, Bernie is seriously clowning. None was ever greater than the late, great Dr Woo...! 🤘🏾🎹🤩🎶🎹🤘🏾
@@HypnoticHollywood I think he was talking about the fact that he was cheezin not whether or not he was a bad mutha slayin the keys

This bowl of FUNK was soooo, good 2 me with some " kapnt Munch" and (left over party nuts") and milk!! Mmmm😋
Need the whole show, is it available Somewhere?
do I hear a little Mutiny - Funk N Bop from the horns?
Skeet!!
Mr.Wiggles underwater boogie baby🎹🎸🎻🎷😎👨🎤🤔😎📻💯
don't think your body knows what good 4 u
camera spots Phillipe Wynne
Gary Shider !
Do my eyes deceive me? Garry Shider not wearing a diaper?!
FunkFan54 not here was known as the leadsnoower Cooper
FunkFan54 sometimes he didn't
don't worry, he's got it on underneath
The diaper is in his mind you just can't funk it, don't change his diaper it's full of P-FUNK !
He had to change his diaper 💩🧻🚽 because there are no toilets on stage 🙊🙉🙈🐵👀☝️🛸🎸🎸🎸🎹🎹
Thanks I was wondering who that was.
Dont thin jerome brailey was with the group in this tour he was gone and on his mutiny rebellionl
chris edwards that Mutiny album is SO BITTER I can’t even get through it. Would be mediocre P-Funk with better lyrics and songs 😂
@@thomasminarchickjr.7355 haha I feel that. I'm kinda in the same BOAT. Which is to say, not the mamaship, but rather the muthaship...
Also I could be imagining things but it sounds like to me that the horns are playing a bit of Funk n Bop
Y'all trippin Hard. That first Mutiny album is bad ass. What More Can I Say, Voyage to the Bottom of the P, some serious cuts on there. The 2nd one is good too
@@mcmarcuschapman mutiny made some good jams but nothing ground breaking they sounded like pfunk hand me downs gc was on some other stuff by the time they came out
Wow
Sound like church!!!!!!!
Preach that P
I wanna go to whatever church you been goin to
yeah dats ron ford
Much Thrust was a Bernie song on his All The Woo In The World album. Insurance man for the funk was the best song on the album. They should have performed that instead of Much Thrust. The show was still on the one 🤘🤘🤘🤘!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This shit fire here....
Go to church, Bernie!!!😅
If there was no funk I wouldn't exsited... Living jivin digin skin his N😎
There’s more drugs in George’s blood here than there is blood 😮
How do you know lol😆😅😄😄😃😂😁
It wasn't drugs, it was the Record company stealing the money and saying George had it.
Under funk and it ain't wet because the mothership connection is soon to drop the bomb and then the water is coming from the P-FUNK
💜🤘🏾
Hmm… nope, who are those imposters with George & Bernie? It’s hard to replace Glenn, Eddie & the boys.
🎤🎼🎶🎵🎵🎵🎵🎹🎸🎤
Who’s the guy with deep voice ?
Ray Davis
No diaper on Gary ?!? What the fonk!?!
Black Cowboys and George Clinton is the Sheriff 🤠☝️🤘👽💀👁️🐵🙈🙉🙊🐴🐎🐄🎸🎸🎸🎹🎹🎹🎷🎺🔦🔦🚽🧻💩 ain't it funky now 🎸😎🤩.
George Clinton got the Crazy and he be funkin right along with the funk.🎤☝️🤘🏟️🛸🕺💃
RONPI GIFTS
Anybody know what those two lines are??
Ray Davis : ***** wiggle the one??
Other guy : Somebody get in the tub??
Inquiring minds want to know.
Sounds like "wake up when they wiggle the one"? Hard to tell lol. It's not uncommon for me to have heard a p-funk song a hundred times before I realize what a certain bit of dialogue is lol
The Landing of the Mothership the dopest show I ever seen
This was the never buy Texas from a cowboy tour.🤠🔦☝️🎸🛸💀👽🎤🏟️🛸👁️💀
That’s Glenn Going’s
