Original US pressing on the multicoloured Westbound label from 1972. The record is in near mint condition and the sleeve is in excellent- condition (split seam).
Here's a review:
Raw, Dirty and extremely Funky!
Those who are familiar with only "classic" P-Funk, like Funkadelic's "One Nation Under a Groove" and Parliament's "Mothership Connection" are in for a surprise.
There are hammonds, harmonicas, string arrangements, all with a dirty late 60's sound. It's hard to figure that this album was recorded the same year as Ohio Players' "Pleasure" (1972) considering the studio sound.
The multiple-styled 7-minute "You Hit The Nail..." is a perfect introduction to what is to follow. There are highlights like the well arranged instrumental "A Joyful Process," the groove-party "Loose Booty," the jamming "Wake Up," horn driven "Philmore" and "That Was My Girl" featuring a typical George Clinton leading vocal. Constant changes in instrumentation are being made, thus it never gets boring - there are a lot of surprises.
One turn-off is the mix of the lead vocal on "I Call My Baby Pussycat" - it's too low, possibly remixed on purpose because of the words being "too naughty" or something (this title has been renamed - its original title did not include the words "I call my baby" or "cat"...)
The horns seem to be arranged and mixed to fill out spaces which they do perfectly; they're never in your face, but never too distant.
The whole album has a very specific feeling and sound, like no other, and is one to treasure as nothing is ever going to sound like this again. Too many people play on this recording for me to be specific about personnel, but Clinton, Worrell, Hazel, Shider, T.Lampkin, T.Fulwood, C.Mosson, Phelps & Bootsy Collins are included. Don't miss out on this!
