Disco de Funkadelic: “Motor City Madness: The Ultimate Funkadelic Westbound Compilation [2003]”

Who said a Funk Band can't Rock? you name it and Funkadelic brought the Pain Musically. now while overall the Isley brothers&Earth,Wind&Fire moved me more, nobody could outplay these cats. in terms of playing on there respective Instruments these Cats were Beasts. George Clinton was the Genius Mind who crafted&set the tone of the Band.Eddie Hazel trademark Licks on Guitar are timeless.Bernie Worrell, Bootsy,Gary shider,&the whole gang who brought so many tight jams to life."Maggot Brain",standing on the verge of getting it on,etc... are tight. Funkadelic made Albums that made you think. they are One of the Greatest Rock&Roll Bands Ever Period. you name the style&these Brothers could play it&Bring the Instrumentation pain.

This is a fantastic collection of Funkadelic's early work on Westbound Records. The sequencing is great and the liner notes decent. It's an excellent starting point for anyone interested in dipping their toe into the freaked-out weirdness of Funkadelic before jumping in all the way.

okay if I was 13 just discovereing the funk yeah I would get this but since these are songs that I grew up listening to and these are selections from funkadelic's 8 lp's from westbound I would skip this and pray for some new new funkadelic cd's but for newbies this is a good start to see what this group is all about funkadelic was the greatest rock band ever and too bad they do'nt get enough props. eddie hazel is a guitar god that could rival hendrix and was his only competition and you'll witness in songs like free your mind and your ass will follow, red hot mama, and I wanna know if it's good to you and feutures maggot brain which was eddie's greatest solo ever and plus built the funkadelic foundation.

props to all the members bernie worrell, tiki, billy bass, gary shider, bootsy collins, fuzzy, shady grady, calvin simon, and the good doctor himself george clinton for being the completer minister of all things heathen.
