Synopsis

Album Description
What do you get when you assemble a bunch of top-flight jam and funk musicians and classic session cats in a studio together, who just happen to have an unhealthy obsession with Parliament/Funkadelic? In the case of One Nation Under A Re-Groove, a storming world-class reevaluation of the grandmaster of funk, courtesy of the cleverly named new-groove collective The Clinton Administration. The group?s all-instrumental take on the music of George Clinton turns the groove up an extra notch, with reworked Parliament classics such as "Mothership Connection," "Up For The Downstroke," and the rousing "Give Up The Funk," and some of Funkadelic?s finest including "(Not Just) Knee Deep" and, of course, the signature funk classic "One Nation Under A Groove."

Nice Surprise

(4 out of 5 stars)

"Being a hardcore Funkateer I was skeptical about someone elses interpretation of some of the best songs that P-FUNK ever made. This CD had a light, jazzy feel to it. It's something that should be played on a Sunday morning while reading the paper. While the turntable stuff did nothing for me, the instruments, especially the sax and bass, were tight. It is a great tribute to George Clinton and P-Funk when players like Clyde Stubblefield and Phil Upchurch join forces to remake their music.
The best tracks are One Nation Under A Groove and Chocolate City. Again, the best way to describe it is (jazzy)funk. The style in which the sax is played helps to give it a light feeling. For all the devoted clones out there, you really should add this one to your collection."
