CD Reviews

Big Bang

G. L. Richardson | westfield new jersey | 11/06/2009

(4 out of 5 stars)

"This is the DNA of the "P"--these are the early tunes that show the direction that the funk mob was headed in--the multitude of genres, the silliness, the hardcore jamming, The way out topics, the overall black Zappa/Hippie vibe. Motown made the mistake of thinking they were too insane to sell, only later to cover there songs "I'll Bet You" and try to recreate their sound with "The Undisputed Truth" and several Temptations tracks "Psychadelic Shack" "Papa was A Rolling Stone" not to mention the Hazel penned "Shakey Ground" which featured Hazel & Billy Bass Nelson."

Nothing like a parliament record

"If you know all of parliament's records you still dont know what this sounds like. It is a really awesome rock psychedilic record. not very funky... But still totally a great listen."
