I so love watching this exciting performance. The grooves and anticipation of each song so masterfully played...They Jammed so strong. Dennis Chambers. laid out the foundation for the funk..Skeet bump the bass to another place..Mike Hampton. was so solid Rock hard...Eddie smooth as butter. Gary just laid it out Lige Curry Held down the back row...!! lil Greg and the horn section did there Thang...!!! I loved the entire Show.
@Rickey Henderson Debatable, my friend. They could go either way. Were they a rock band that played funk? Or a funk band that played rock? IMO they were a rock band that excelled at James Brown, Jimi, and Sly.
@@ndavis5735 radio and greedy companies separated genres but bottom line they arent a "one band that plays this or that" they are THEE BAND THAT PLAYS THEYRE MUSIC WHICH IS BOTTOM LINE THE P FUNK. And considering the ROOTS of all 3 it isn't debatable, its parliament funkadelic. Period
Michael Hampton has always been such a great guitar player, people always talk about Eddie Hazel because how good he was but Michael Hampton is the man
I bet the whole of Germany could feel the earth shaking. These monstrous shows in the early 80s were the pinnacle of P-Funk's musical power. And mind it, this line up is missing the whole squad. Maceo, Bernie, Philippe Wayne, and many other funkateers weren't there for this show or maybe the tour. But that didn't stop this jackhammer band from pounding the audiences. Each musician is exceptionally great at what they do and to make it freakier, there is George who brings out the wilder side out of them. Blackbird McKnight played with Miles Davis, we all know what Dennis can do, Greg Boyer on the Trombone is a master of adding humor to his solos but with a lot of complexity behind it, Sandra-the backup singer took it to church (my favourite part of the show), Rodney Skeet Curtis is in my opinion the most committed funk bass player ever. When George asked him if he wanted to solo, he simply refused because he wanted to hold that groove so bad and knew that it was the best thing for the moment. And last but not at all the least, the live sound engineers who mixed the show very well so we could watch it and feel the beat after all these years. I LOOOVE RUclips. ❤️
Don't know why folks gotta make comparisons...George was always surrounded by some fantastic talent. Funksters all! They all came outta P University! And they all threw down on this set. Betcha!
This video has a real pro behind the cameras and the audio is solid and tight. Whoever did this deserves the Platinum Medal from everyone in Funkland. Damn, I wish I was there. I really wish I was playing bass that night!!
This is abso-freaking-lutely one of the absolute best concerts ever recorded, whatever the musical genre. It's ALL there - the groove, the skills, the showmanship, the energy... And all this for an 80's German TV show :D
I had no idea Parliament were gigging in 85! amazing upload! George is 44 here and the last era of him being the totally on fire frontman. . hilarious & awesome to see the young Chili Peppers do the encore. George's protege's and he pretty much passed on the funk mantle to them that year with Freaky Styley. so awesome.
I’ve seen a lot of Parliament Funkadelic live videos but this is by far the best sound and video out there. Thank you for providing the funk P Funk.💣💥👏🏾👏🏾🥰
this was a great performance enuf said! i'm still always amazed that mike hampton and eddie hazel aren't praised across all of rock and roll as the guitar gods they are! they deserve to get PAID!!! you know what i mean??? do you understand?
oh my god!i had no idea these guys can play so good!m blown away by the guitar work.ive heard the hits I guess but I wish I knew about the blues stuff a long time ago.cant say enough about this band.they can flat out jam!great show.just wish bootsy was with them
jason cauthen the work they did with Eddie Hazel as their guitarist is the best in my opinion. I love almost all of it over the past 50+ years, but Eddie Hazel was the greatest
A rough setlist, hope you like it: Cosmic Slop / 11:12 Let's Take It to the Stage / 27:20 One Nation Under a Groove + (Not Just) Knee Deep / 37:20 Maggot Brain / 46:00 Standing on the Verge of Getting It On / 1:00:20 Atomic Dog / 1:09:30 Flash Light / 1:19:00 Cosmic Slop (revisited, with special guests Red Hot Chili Peppers, Killing Joke and The Untouchables)
this is one of the best bootlegs i've ever seen from funkadelic and any band in general!!... Eddie AND Mike tearin it up and the video quality is veerrrryy good too! everything sound so good together :D i wonder now why i never seen this recording before :D i needed this damn funk, haven't listen for a while, feel totally satisfied
Now this sounds nearly perfect! I wish all the Pfunk videos sounded at least this good! The guitars don't get mixed in unfortunately till the 6:36 mark. But definitely one of the best out there!
mid 80s P-Funk video is somewhat rare... and this is very high quality performance.. Funkentelechy opening is amazing. The Eddie-Mike duet / duel has me feeling stuff. Eddie needs some volume boost there. This is one of the best Videos of Eddie
Thank you very much!!! Merci Beaucoup!! Muchissimas Gracias! I dont now how to say ? Al this great music & Wonderfull people ! You have make somebady Happy tonight....Too Good !!!
CorvusCorone68 the movie is Close Encounters. They actually asked George to do the music. He gave them the music and they went a firrent direction. He took the music, added the girls and that became the first Brides of Funkenstein album.
Brother this happens everyday for me, look into goetia and the “aliens” will talk through that purple funk ya dig, them spirits got they James brown pass
The only band that said "Let's Take It To The Stage" and nobody came to challenge them. Nobody wanted that smoke.
George Clinton is the sensei of funk
The greatest sounds I've ever heard here wow
My Japanese buddy, Takahiko gave me a copy of this concert.

Yes, but Kidd Funkadelic is there( 2:10)(3:10)
without funkadelic there wouldent be hip hop hits in the 90´s :P

Untied Dogs in a traumatic society...
Bad!!
Dennis is in the pocket
That's the Mighty Rodney "Skeet" Curtis on bass
The bass line is kick ass!
I demand a remaster from whoever funky recorded this gig, and an official DVD/blu-ray release.
the greatest rock roll band ever!
Todd Zornow Greatest collection of musicians in history of Rock and Funk music.
Ture That!

The late and great Amp Fiddler, just passed a couple days ago. So, it's really great to our heroes, all here & accounted for.
Michael Hampton has always been such a great guitar player, people always talk about Eddie Hazel because how good he was but Michael Hampton is the man
Mike's cool but Eddie started the whole funkadelic thang Eddie was funkadelic
Mike keeping the flame lit
They all good
Yeah, it was a drag he was so low in the mix during Maggot Brain here. So killer.
He was outstanding

Thank you so much for your insight!
the rawest funk you'll ever hear
Every concert I attend was epic. Never a dull moment...❤❤❤❤
I can never get tired of this show.
I am amazed I lived without George Clinton for so long. Maggot Brain blew me away. The live experience must have been stupefying.
Put your headphones on and turn it up and smoke a fat one with maggot brain then you will get the true experience😎😉
And Dennis Chambers is a total groove machine AND monster on the kit!!
Yes Sir 👍 The Real 👌 Deal on the One!!WOOF!!
Eddie was the greatest I've ever heard.... Love Jimmie , S.R.V and Jeff Beck, after listening to Hazal , I stopped playing all togeather
Don't know why folks gotta make comparisons...George was always surrounded by some fantastic talent. Funksters all! They all came outta P University! And they all threw down on this set. Betcha!
Do you know who was in the show by any chance?
This video has a real pro behind the cameras and the audio is solid and tight. Whoever did this deserves the Platinum Medal from everyone in Funkland. Damn, I wish I was there. I really wish I was playing bass that night!!
It's a pro shot 4 camera shoot. For German tv
This is abso-freaking-lutely one of the absolute best concerts ever recorded, whatever the musical genre. It's ALL there - the groove, the skills, the showmanship, the energy... And all this for an 80's German TV show :D
This is the best Parliament Funkadelic concert I've seen live or on video.
DOLPHIN1266 parliament funkadelic live in Houston 76 with the mothership landing is a incredible concert
I am still loving their live shows! Dr Funkenstein has not lost a step! Check them out on tour!
THERE IS NO ARTISTRY IN MUSIC TODAY.....thank u to all the greats......

Whew! An hour and a half of [Pure] Funk. Dennis Chambers' drumming is incredible throughout. Thanks!
All of James Brown's precision with none of his limitations. George/P-Funk was everything music should be.
JB and limitations??? That is like oil and water
@@darrinricketts6146 jb was machine funk this is liquid funk
what limitations?
Vincent Guarna
Getting fined for playing the wrong notes? Not being given free rein to improvise? It’s quite well-documented.
Darrin Ricketts
Did you try improvising when you were his employee? How did that work out?
Indeed fantastic to see Dennis Chambers on drums !!! he truely is a (drum) monster !
the real stuff ladies and gentlemen ;)
"Take It To The Stage" vermengd met "Thank You For Letting Me Be Myself Again"! Waanzinnig goed gedaan!

Not a bootleg. You could actually buy this in VHS from Asia in the early 90's
Thanks for this oh so funky post. Dennis Chambers throwin' down!!
Funkamedic, this is phenomenal...thank you on behalf of all the fellow Funkateers! Cosmic Slop is unreal here!!
George clinton ,P-funk Legend hands down !
Rolling Stone mag, had Eddie Hazal ranked number 32 out of 100 greatest rock guitar players..BULLSHIT !!!!!!!!!!! EDDIE was top 10
He’s black bro, of course. Don’t you watch the Grammys.
All one has to do is listen to Maggot Brain. Says it all!
@@onemorew They use minors against Majors that's never been done
Top 5

Dennis the best groove!!!!
you know that movie where aliens use music to communicate with humans? what if aliens visit and they use Funkadelic to communicate?
They musta tried Sun Ra first. Not a lot of people understood. :)
CorvusCorone68 the movie is Close Encounters. They actually asked George to do the music. He gave them the music and they went a firrent direction. He took the music, added the girls and that became the first Brides of Funkenstein album.
And you no,it on,Funk get ready to Roll 💪!!
