i think i read somewhere that Brailey was actually trying to mock and/or show how easy it was to make music like Clinton.

after just re-reading the amg bio this is what they say, just in better english than what i was trying to say: Mutiny's debut album, Mutiny on the Mamaship, was released by CBS in 1979 and featured several pointed satires of Clinton, even as the music mostly replicated his style (though it did so quite effectively).

I do remember seeing some 90s Mutiny cds in there too, but I never bothered with them.

so i'm relistening to the whole thing right now. it's been over a year since the last time i listened to it and i actually think it's pretty alright. at the time, i had been in a BIG soul/funk/pfunk addiction phase and this musta come at the tail end of it. so i was probably just getting sick of hearing all the same kinda shit. now that i hardly listen to any of that stuff, it's not so bad on fresh ears.

While I disagree with most of Martin's opinions, it's "Martin's funk Thread" folks. No need to hate on the man because he's the disco kid, instead of the undisco kid.

Fuzzy Haskins 2 solo albums are pretty good.

There's a great "America Eats Its Young" thread around here on ILM somewhere, involving chuck eddy - that's a weird album, but its become one of my favorites over time, particularly because there isn't much else like it in the P-Funk catalog. Really its closest analogue is "Osmium".

It took me a while to get into it so maybe Martin will do the same IF he plays it again sometime.

Never heard them

x-post.
Dada theyre quite good albums. Kinda like mid period funkadelic.I'd recommend them to those who are very familiar with pfunk in general.
Have a read at the two reviews i posted the links to.

I def. prefer America Eats Its Young to Osmium. No "Silent Boatman" for one thing. Or bagpipes. But "Miss Lucifer's Love"! "I Call My Baby Pussycat"! Funkiest slide guitar ever on "Biological Speculation"! (which also has some of my favorite Funkadelic lyrics)

Silent Boatman is awesome. Maybe Dada and I get goosebumps with the bagpipes playing the skye boat song though ;)
Dada I could YSI you the O.G. Funk and Tal Ross (he calls himself tal not tawl now) albums if you like since i'm not sure if they're in print now.
Have you heard Sweatband and Quazar?

I shall be talking about AEIY on my blog in a few days time. I like it - in fact I think I prefer it to a lot of later P-Funk stuff, but I can see why it's not Martin's cup of tea.
