Parliament
P Funk Earth Tour Live (1991)


Inspired by Motowns assembly line of sound, George Clinton gradually put together a collective of over 50 musicians and recorded the ensemble during the 70s both as Parliament and Funkadelic. While Funkadelic pursued band-format psychedelic rock, Parliament engaged in a funk free-for-all, blending influences from the godfathers (James Brown and Sly Stone) with freaky costumes and themes inspired by 60s acid culture and science fiction. From its 1970 inception until Clintons dissolving of Parliament in 1980, the band hit the RB Top Ten several times but truly excelled in two other areas: large-selling, effective album statements and the most dazzling, extravagant live show in the business. In an era when Philly soul continued the slick sounds of establishment-approved RB, Parliament scared off more white listeners than it courted.

The only officially released in-concert Parliament-Funkadelic album, Live: P-Funk Earth Tour captures George Clinton and company at their peak in 1977, compiling recordings of a couple shows (January 19 at the Los Angeles Forum and January 21 at the Oakland Coliseum). The double-LP/single-CD album cant do justice to the groups extravagant theatrics, most memorably the landing of the mothership, but its a wonderful showcase for their musical ability and their catalog of great songs, most of which come from the 1976 albums Mothership Connection and The Clones of Dr. Funkenstein. No performance was ever the same for these guys, and thats a major aspect of this albums entertainment value, for its interesting to compare these live performances to their studio counterparts. Of particular note are the 15-minute extended performance of Dr. Funkenstein and the three-minute montage Landing (Of the Holy Mothership). Though unessential, Live: P-Funk Earth Tour is worth investigating for anyone curious about the Parliament-Funkadelic live experience and is a welcome alternative to the many bootlegs and latter-day P-Funk All Stars live recordings that have circulated over the years.
