Review by ijustspeak Apr 13, 2007 (edited over 2 years ago)

A friend of mine showed me this record. The cover just made me laugh at first but the music blew me away. The story of this Parliament record is that the band took them self as being an Alien lifeform from outer space, and the mission was bringing p-funk music to planet earth.
Nevertheless this record is the ultimate Parliament record for me. It is some seriously crazy stuff in there but incredible musicians are bringing the mothership ahead with Fred Wesley and Maceo Parker from James Browns band among some.
Acid drugs were a big part in forging this music, and the result was P-funk at is best, yet humorous and fun.
The highlight of the whole thing is "Dr.Funkenstein", just listen to the lyrics.. Classic!!
