As a trained professional musician, who grew up when they played this song during inner city house parties, where folks didn't get shot! A time when folks went out to have a good time and dance, this is without a doubt at the top of the list of the funkiest songs OF ALL TIMES! As a musician every time I listen to it, the complexities of Clinton's vocal arrangements, the genius of Bernie Worrell's musical arrangement, the serious FUNK on the One and of course Phillipe Wynn's incredible vocal vamp and the use of the cuica (what?) no conservatory needed!
@@hiimgamerspruzzino5804 He doesn't know, what he doesn't know.. Teach him, ANd make sho you're wearing your sunglasses, so they can't see, what you ain't lookin at!
@@LDiablo1 I will sure do! Let her (shes a woman) know that there is something more other than classical music. Ill make sure to bring my bop gun as well lol
...remember when the DJ dropped this; if you truly loved this song you went absolutly crazy you didn't care what people thought how they looked at you or what you were t o t a l l y in the MUSIC, till this day it is the ultimate jam, these kids today i feel so sorry for them they have no clue how we rocked it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
In 1979, I was 16 years old when this song came out. It was the JAM back in the day!!! To this day, it's being played in heavy rotation on my playlist!!!💃💃💃💃
This song will never grow old. It's songs like this that helped keep the obesity rate down. Talk about partying hard, all night long. Probably burned 10,000 calories! Seriously! #NothingLikeOldSkoolMusic!!!
SMUS16475 look up nu disco, funky panda is a good source of it. It's obviously more electronic nowadays but it still has the groove that these songs portray. Haywyre's ODESZA remix is a good one
I'm from that time was 17 by the time the song got to the part Got ants in my pants and need to dance, let me tell you the whole club was on there feet. lol
This is my one of my Music Singing group ever. When they came out, they just took over the Dance floor. Party , Party we all had a good time. I really miss those days. Go clean Music, music you can Party with. And do your thing on the Dance floor. I was there and enjoyed every bit of it. And now those days are gone. I guess I was born at the right time. And had the best of the best.
Thank you, good burger, for introducing the younger generation to this classic jam. My friend and I actually vowed to host a party with a straitjacket dress code and play this song non stop. It'll happen someday...
bootsy on drums , walter junie morrison on moog ,fender rhodes , phrophet 5 synths ,piano,and guitars by michael hampton, percussion(bongo scratch) larry frantangelo, vocals arranged by george and junie , LEAD VOCALS,George,Gary,junie,greg thomas (it didnt twerk), scat ( phillype wynn of the spinners) Jessica cleaves (you turn me on and out) ron ford, clip payne (oh no not the moose)sheila horn there is also a accapella version of this song
phillipe wynn left the spinners for funkeldelic,loved him on this album, I was used of him sing syrupy love songs with the PLATTERS ,and the SPINNERS, However when he left and joined George, I think that caught us old school musicphiles by surprise back n 79.
Ohhh Maaannn,1980,Monroe Civic Center. "WHATTA CONCERT"..!! I remember it like was ystrdy...the wild costumes, HUGE SPEAKERS, the"MOTHERSHIP"comin down on the stage,and then they brought out this HUGE SKULL,with a 20ft. "Joint" hangin in it's teeth,n GEORGE said "FIRE UP TH' FUNK"....WOWWW WHATTA, CONCERT...!!!!
..."NOTHIN LIKE DAT P-FUNK...!!! Just that whole era('75~'80)of life for me was the "BEST",BelBottom jeans,Platform Shoes,Afro Sheen-in your "Fro",Rake in your back pocket,Flagg Bros.fashions,Everything Was COOL,People were Real,life was Good,No CRACK,AK-47's,or AIDS..RIGHT ON..RIGHT ON.!!! Man O Man,if l could Turn Back the Hands of Time...
I hate comparing our generation music (those of us born in the 70s) to the current kids music. But it is hard not to when hearing this treasure. This is 15 mins of pure gold! This is one song and it is 35 years old and still funky and playable!
Hell Yeah, I would sweat my perm out on this song. Dropping it like it was hot. Now I can not hold it likes it's warm. Might break a hip. I put this on and clean the house makes the work go faster. What the hell, this is 2014 where did 1979 and my waist line go.
I still get chills when I hear that bass line. Did he say "it didn't TWERK no more" at 1:21? Uncle Jam still staying ahead of his time. Saw him in Tucson of all places 2 years ago. He killed it! Funkateers unite!
The chicken ain’t picking and the rooster wasn’t kicking but the music moves me it soothes me. That guitar solo is P-Funk at its Finest!!! Thank you Big Brother for introducing me to P-Funk
This has got to be one of the ultimate party jams! This studio version is not available on Rhapsody but leave it to RUclips!! Thank you for posting the song : ).
Seems like we have 209 people who have never taken a ride on the Mothership. Poor children of the '80's & 90's . This was when you didn't have to be afraid of being an individual & have artistic license. Peace
When I used to dj at a club in college, whenever drink sales were slow the bartender told me to play this jam the extended version. Right after that joint, the bar was packed LOL
1979 i was the man in the 9th grade poplocking,,breakdanceing funk of TEAR$ in the 757 driving a 1979 lincoln mark 5 and knee deep with pure bass kicking you right out your ''BED''
Great song! I grew up on this song and was a sophomore in high school in 1979, it always played at the roller skate rink every weekend we went and on the radio on KSOL 107.7 in the Bay Area, Calif.
Thanks for this tightass post. Probably the baddest jam ever. I am high school class of '80. They say high school yrs. are the best yrs. Well this got alot of house parties jumpin. Alot of good memories.
No lie. EVERY December 25 I recite Kurtis Blow's "Christmas Rappin'." ALSO class of '80. Bought all the albums then, I remember ConFunkShun, Gap Band, Sweat Band, Change, Shalamar was in its middle of its three phases, EWF was following up "I Am" LP with "Let's Groove" single. In college, I'd stretch out for cross-country practice in the gym where the basketball team had tape players.
used to jam to this with all the females---didn't matter if they were with someone or not (i could throw down to this song)---such happy memories...one memory i'll never forget is trying to out-do my wife (THE GREAT BMR) on the dance floor---what a night of pure joy...
Some clubs in Italy, in totaly discomusic era, on Friday and Saturday nights dedicated at least 2 hours to funky and this long version often happened, which created a great atmosphere with the right audience.
I saw Bootsy Fall 2013 at Strathmore in Bethesda, MD and George came out later and joined him - show was off-the-chain!! Forever a Funkateer and Rubber Fan . . .
WHEN THIS JAM CAME ON IN THE CLUB ,BACK IN THE DAY,THE WHOLE DANG CLUB GOT UP TO SHAKE OUR RUMPS.NOTHING LIKE THE GOOD OLD SCHOOL DAYS.WE KNEW HOW TO PAARRRTTAAY.....
FROM 12:50 ON PHILIPPE WYNN SHOWS WHY HE WAS AND WILL ALWAYS BE THE MASTER ADD LIBBER. JUST PRODUCING WORDS WITH SOUNDS OUT OF NOWHERE RIGHT ON AND AGAINST THE BEATS AS WELL AS THE MUSIC. JUST AMAZING
I fully agree Athena Harris,Philippe Wynne made this song extra extra funky. He was no doubt the best ad libber ever!!!! His vocals took an already funky song to that next level and made it better. He is my favorite singer of all time. His style and timing were impeccable. I love and miss Philippe Wynne like crazy.
Mistress Eventide Solo by Mike Hampton,AKA Kidd Funkadelic.,If you want a guitar solo that's good to your earhole, dig Maggot Brain by the same P-funk crew. Eddie Hazel will make you forget about Carlos****
Andrew Anthony Don't forget ERNIE ISLEY!!!!.......("Who's that lady," and "Ballad for fallen soldier") here it is ruclips.net/video/zzby-9-6dmE/видео.html....the solo starts at 2:33
WTFCan you say. The memories the love the joy this song has brought. Great cruising song picking up the ladies. 1979 I was Jr in high school . knee Deep was the song that pissed my mom off lol I think she heard it in her sleep.
Unquestionably, the BADDEST funk JAM of ALL TIME!!!! Everybody gets a solo and everybody TURNS IT OUT!!!! The funkiest guitar ever recorded PERIOD. If you aint sweating after that somethings wrong with you!!
This is what you call funk ! I was the only white guy person in my neighborhood that was into this type of music. They put out some Great tunes. Always funky !
Damn, one minute I'm sitting here doing a little work and suddenly, I'm knee deep in the funk...with ants in my pants! I am a proud citizen of Funkadelica.
This was a time when the words and musical skills was key in making a hit....now all you have to have is some cursing, some sampled music that not many people remember, and some fine big busted women with a big ole butt to have a hit.....and Hell not even the young people know what they saying......I'll Pass!!!!!!!!!!
DETROIT IN THE HOUSE BACKYARD PARTY THEM PARTY WOULD BE OFF THE HOOK AND THIS SONG WOULD COME ON AND THAT WAS IT GOT WOW FAST AND MAYBE A FIGHT NORTHEND BOYS...
Still funkier than any music played today! No one can compare to Parliament..ever!
Amen
There's someone about that MUSIC 🤘

And it still is to this very day. True talent and originality can't be replicated or replaced. It's timeless

RIGHT ON
Old school RULES..real talent
Yes, it does!😃😃🔥🔥🔥
Man, why can't people at least try to make music like this nowadays?
SMUS16475 Wesley's Theory, or King Kunta.
Marcus Pollack I'm talking about funk, not hip hop. :D
SMUS16475 It's mostly hip hop, but it has funk elements to it. The only other song i can think of is Get Lucky by Daft Punk.
Marcus Pollack Get Lucky was two years ago. I'm talking about 2015 - present.
SMUS16475 look up nu disco, funky panda is a good source of it. It's obviously more electronic nowadays but it still has the groove that these songs portray. Haywyre's ODESZA remix is a good one
George Clinton has unique vocals that resonate. Thanks a lot for the upload.
Philippe Wynne led vocals on track.
travis samuel @0:52 to 3:17, Clinton is the lead, which is to what I'm referring.
travis samuel -lead vocals: George Clinton, Garry Shider, Phillippe Wynne, Junie Morrison, Jessica Cleaves.
Tks I'll tell Star Child next time i see him...
travis samuel (correction): Philippe Wynne led vocals on track, after electric guitar solo.
If you don't dig this, something is wrong with your life!!!
Agreed! :)
Damn Right..(>
If you don't dig this there is something wrong with your earhole
Fa SHO!
Exactly!
LONG LIVE THE FUNK
Those were the days! I was18 in in the Airforce having a ball.
Craig Donahue You know who's a Big Fan of Funk Music. Nick Rhodes Of Duran Duran.
TY. I live in Canada and I remember hearing this when I was Thirteen. I loved The Album cover and the Comic at the Back of it.
Craig Donahue so was I in AF then lol just a wee bit older than u though lol Happy Feet! ..atc school in ms!
I'm from that time was 17 by the time the song got to the part Got ants in my pants and need to dance, let me tell you the whole club was on there feet. lol
FIFTEEN minutes of funk. Beat that, Whodini!
lol hell naw boi u stupid
Super stupid! Lol 🤣♥️
You just had to live in this era to understand this awesome music
This is music !!!
My mom LOVES this song. She said that 17 different instruments were played at the same time. She said top that new school. But sadly no one can
Old school music is the best! Unlike today w its remix of old school. Music like this is just about the music,not about hype and ghost writers.
Jennifer Joe amen ty for posting some truth
Back then you had to actually have talent.
Jennifer Joe you need to look deeper. there is good music in any era. turn off your radio and get out there
This is my one of my Music Singing group ever. When they came out, they just took over the Dance floor. Party , Party we all had a good time. I really miss those days. Go clean Music, music you can Party with. And do your thing on the Dance floor. I was there and enjoyed every bit of it. And now those days are gone. I guess I was born at the right time. And had the best of the best.
Thank you, good burger, for introducing the younger generation to this classic jam.
My friend and I actually vowed to host a party with a straitjacket dress code and play this song non stop. It'll happen someday...
7:15 to 9;45 OMG. no one CAN TOP THE TALENT ON A GUITAR DISPLAYED HERE. HANDS DOWN.. THANK YOU!!!!!
Back in the day, You could almost ride around Belle Isle. (An island park just off of downtown Detroit) to the long version of this song. Good Times
I'm only 13 years old and I love the 90's music, nothing is better than the funk of the old school
this tune is from 1979.
Yes it yes! I'm a Baby Boomer!❤❤@karlhelm875
OMG!!! I love this!!! My Army Brother brought this to the West Coast, from Being stationed in DC @ The Pentagon. I still love it!
👏🏿👏🏿👍🏾

I lot of people say that this was the greatest song ever recorded! I have to agree.
What's crazy is that this is the band playing all of the Instruments, it sounds like protools and drum machines. Timeless and Tight!
phillipe wynn left the spinners for funkeldelic,loved him on this album, I was used of him sing syrupy love songs with the PLATTERS ,and the SPINNERS, However when he left and joined George, I think that caught us old school musicphiles by surprise back n 79.
Phillipe Wynn, yeah and heard Juni Morrison left the Ohio Players for the funk also. I love this stuff, great upload seand67!

I still get chills when I hear that bass line. Did he say "it didn't TWERK no more" at 1:21? Uncle Jam still staying ahead of his time. Saw him in Tucson of all places 2 years ago. He killed it! Funkateers unite!
You know how fried ice cream is a reality? Well, so is time travel. True story! 🤷🏻♂️
Copyright "twerk" Lil Wayne "bling"¿? Oops, to late, get down, one time!!!!
It didn't work? Just pronouncing the T strong in "didn't".
I play it as soon as I wake up in the morning! !!!!!;)))
Me too😅❤
The chicken ain’t picking and the rooster wasn’t kicking but the music moves me it soothes me. That guitar solo is P-Funk at its Finest!!!
Thank you Big Brother for introducing me to P-Funk
Something about the music STILL gets into my pants....even after all these years. 🙏🏾❤️
Immersed in funk so deep. R.I.P. Phillippe Wynne. Big ups to Junie for really putting this jam together
That's right bruh . 1970's music was the true funk the PFunk👌🏾👌🏾😂😂
This has got to be one of the ultimate party jams! This studio version is not available on Rhapsody but leave it to RUclips!! Thank you for posting the song : ).
The originators! 🙌
Lets party
Seems like we have 209 people who have never taken a ride on the Mothership. Poor children of the '80's & 90's . This was when you didn't have to be afraid of being an individual & have artistic license. Peace
CLASSIC
CLÁSICO VER...
Possibly the greatest dance song of all time! When this came out in 79" there was no equal funk, dance song of its kind.
When I used to dj at a club in college, whenever drink sales were slow the bartender told me to play this jam the extended version. Right after that joint, the bar was packed LOL
Omg I totally can not sit down when I hear this song!!!! Thank u Good Burger!!
Heyyyyeeee I feel you on that!
I was 17 when this was released, brought the record. And I got tired of it because my weak-ass can’t resist a goddamn 15 minute song of funk
MC Knockout / Cyclone Warrior Classic....If you can’t have the full 15:06 version don’t waste your time with an edit!!
seand67 Yep, you’re right. I heard De La’s version 10 years later. And yeah I did like it, De La’s song is cool and alright
1979 i was the man in the 9th grade poplocking,,breakdanceing funk of TEAR$ in the 757 driving a 1979 lincoln mark 5 and knee deep with pure bass kicking you right out your ''BED''
SO many big artists were influenced just by this song alone.
Great song! I grew up on this song and was a sophomore in high school in 1979, it always played at the roller skate rink every weekend we went and on the radio on KSOL 107.7 in the Bay Area, Calif.
Thank you! I enjoyed this classic.
👍🏾👍🏾👌🏾
Rip Donny bethea this song reminds me of you.when we used to go to the discos miss you
I got goosebumps jammin on my skin! Another one of those solid jams from roller skating days!
rediculous FAt!!!
Electric guitar section is legendary!!🎶🎼🎸😂
15 mins of fire…Hampton’s solo legendary 🔥
The LONGEST Song.in funk history 15.20 of pure uncut FUNK. OK!!😎
I remember in the early 70's when Parliament and the Funkadelics rocked the shit out of the whole house. I'm in knee deep, oh yeah yeah.
Thanks for this tightass post. Probably the baddest jam ever. I am high school class of '80. They say high school yrs. are the best yrs. Well this got alot of house parties jumpin. Alot of good memories.
No lie. EVERY December 25 I recite Kurtis Blow's "Christmas Rappin'."
ALSO class of '80. Bought all the albums then, I remember ConFunkShun, Gap Band, Sweat Band, Change, Shalamar was in its middle of its three phases, EWF was following up "I Am" LP with "Let's Groove" single. In college, I'd stretch out for cross-country practice in the gym where the basketball team had tape players.
Philippe Wynne, easily one of the top three voices of soul in the seventies! Funkin it up!
Baddest jam EVER!!!!
used to jam to this with all the females---didn't matter if they were with someone or not (i could throw down to this song)---such happy memories...one memory i'll never forget is trying to out-do my wife (THE GREAT BMR) on the dance floor---what a night of pure joy...
When she danced,she set the World on Fire!!!!
This is four whole songs by today’s standards!!!
Some clubs in Italy, in totaly discomusic era, on Friday and Saturday nights dedicated at least 2 hours to funky and this long version often happened, which created a great atmosphere with the right audience.
This full version is where it's at! On the radio edit, you never get to hear Phillipe Wynne's voice. This is song is KING baby!!!
I saw Bootsy Fall 2013 at Strathmore in Bethesda, MD and George came out later and joined him - show was off-the-chain!! Forever a Funkateer and Rubber Fan . . .
I just like this music from funkadelic
WHEN THIS JAM CAME ON IN THE CLUB ,BACK IN THE DAY,THE WHOLE DANG CLUB GOT UP TO SHAKE OUR RUMPS.NOTHING LIKE THE GOOD OLD SCHOOL DAYS.WE KNEW HOW TO PAARRRTTAAY.....
Back then Parliament was rescuing dance music from the blahs! Could this be me immersed in funk so deep?!
Junie originally wrote this on an acoustic piano. If you listen closely you can hear him underneath all that MASSIVE funk.
Thanks for posting the FULL version!!! My cassette's in the car, my car's in the shop.
FROM 12:50 ON PHILIPPE WYNN SHOWS WHY HE WAS AND WILL ALWAYS BE THE MASTER ADD LIBBER. JUST PRODUCING WORDS WITH SOUNDS OUT OF NOWHERE RIGHT ON AND AGAINST THE BEATS AS WELL AS THE MUSIC. JUST AMAZING
I fully agree Athena Harris,Philippe Wynne made this song extra extra funky. He was no doubt the best ad libber ever!!!! His vocals took an already funky song to that next level and made it better.

Love The Spinners' Philippe Wynne's scat-singing from 9:45. "Could this be me immersed in funk so deep?"
I always go to the 7th minute mark, when kidd funkadelic begins to play
that guitar solo... dayam! Have yet to hear ANY that comes close (cept maybe Carlos Santana hehe)
Mistress Eventide Solo by Mike Hampton,AKA Kidd Funkadelic.,If you want a guitar solo that's good to your earhole, dig Maggot Brain by the same P-funk crew. Eddie Hazel will make you forget about Carlos****
Andrew Anthony yes... I remember when the LP came out, and I bought it :P Indeed guitar solo! WHOOOO!
Andrew Anthony Don't forget ERNIE ISLEY!!!!.......("Who's that lady," and "Ballad for fallen soldier") here it is ruclips.net/video/zzby-9-6dmE/видео.html....the solo starts at 2:33
menelith1 What??

This is my FAVORITE song in the world!!!!! This is to be played at my funeral!!! the harmonizing is over!!!!!
Coming to the House of Blues in San Diego. You KNOW I'll BE there!!!!!
This was when Pop Locking was in Full Force
I went out Clubbing at a Teen Disco in 1979 and I remember they played this Song. It was The Jam back in The Day.
De La Soul brought me here :D
WTFCan you say. The memories the love the joy this song has brought. Great cruising song picking up the ladies. 1979 I was Jr in high school . knee Deep was the song that pissed my mom off lol I think she heard it in her sleep.
Back then we were ONE NATION UNDER A GROVE haven't been able to figure out what these kids are talking about now, the sad part is they call it music.
Amen...a sad state of affairs...not the Motor Booty....ha-ha!!!
Kid now days have lunchmeataphobia. Whacked out their mind.
At my school dance in East St. Boogie, some of the best memories !!💞
WVON would play the 15 minute LP version at 7 every nite. I'd be waiting.
WVON........ASK ANYBODY BOUT THE..ELETRIFYING MOJO and THIS SONG.......Detroit shit
Unquestionably, the BADDEST funk JAM of ALL TIME!!!! Everybody gets a solo and everybody TURNS IT OUT!!!! The funkiest guitar ever recorded PERIOD. If you aint sweating after that somethings wrong with you!!

Pure.....uncut funk!
Damn, one minute I'm sitting here doing a little work and suddenly, I'm knee deep in the funk...with ants in my pants! I am a proud citizen of Funkadelica.
DJ's use to play this long version back in the day when they had to go drop some logs...lol
That keyboard hook just kills.I find myself whistling it, all during my life.
This was a time when the words and musical skills was key in making a hit....now all you have to have is some cursing, some sampled music that not many people remember, and some fine big busted women with a big ole butt to have a hit.....and Hell not even the young people know what they saying......I'll Pass!!!!!!!!!!
This is the first song i have memory of brings tears to my eyes uncontrolably
DETROIT IN THE HOUSE BACKYARD PARTY THEM PARTY WOULD BE OFF THE HOOK AND THIS SONG WOULD COME ON AND THAT WAS IT GOT WOW FAST AND MAYBE A FIGHT NORTHEND BOYS...
errol Flynn days
Party over here, Party ova there! we used to dance off butts of these songs.
