great stuff so far! Nice to see the side projects getting some love
― Cosmic Slop, Monday, 1 December 2014 22:43 (nine years ago) link
Shame about the paucity of ballots, but this is turning out nicely, and I'm glad to see that a couple of my more left-field picks got another vote here and there (hello "Catch A Keeper," "Roto-Rooter," and "Shine-O-Myte"!). Like Cosmic Slop, I turned in a full 100-song ballot. My self-imposed rules were probably more stringent than most, but they're consistent with where I've long defined the boundaries of what constitutes a P-Funk record- every track had to have some involvement from George Clinton even if that only meant a nominal producer's credit (I made an exception for the Sweat Band - produced by Bootsy, featuring several long-time P-Funk members, and released on Clinton's short-lived Uncle Jam label - and a couple self-produced Bootsy tracks from when he was still very much in the P-Funk orbit). Hence there's no Zapp (Bootsy coproduced their first record, sure, but they were never really part of the P-Funk mob despite Roger's marginal contributions to one or two Funkadelic tracks) or Mutiny (who have a more legitimate claim to the collective mantle). I guess there's no reason for me to mention this except that I still find it kinda weird that anyone considers Zapp to be P-Funk. Great band, though.

Could only vote for 40 tracks...lack of time I'm afraid...sad to see "What About It" so low down the list...love that groove!

Just catching up.
Three songs in my top 15 already placed that didn't get a single other vote. Not surprised that Singing Another Song didn't as it's a bonus track on Up For the Down Stroke. Such a catchy song. Soul Mate and I Misjudged You are the other two I had up there that I'm a little more surprised about. I love their ballads and these are two of the very best. I'm surprised Supergroovalisticprosifunkstication is so low. I just assumed all the songs off Mothership would be really high.

Oh I had One Fun at a Time in my top 10 too. Seems like I have quite a strange taste in their stuff. I'm already feeling like I might be the only person that didn't vote for a song that could well at the top of the list.
― Kitchen Person, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 02:46 (nine years ago) link
I had no idea there were cd-only bonus tracks for any of the parliament albums. None of my cd copies have any!
― Οὖτις, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 02:46 (nine years ago) link
Soul Mate is good but I subbed it out on my ballot for other stuff I liked more from the same album.
you might be alone on I Misjudged You tho. Never dug that one.
― Οὖτις, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 02:47 (nine years ago) link
I'm not sure which issues I have of the Parliament albums now (In a different country to my CD collection right now) Think that most of the ones I have do come with a couple of bonus tracks. Another bonus track I had high on my list is the upbeat version of Baby I Owe You Something Good. It totally transforms a good song to an amazing one for me.

135. Parliament - (I Wanna) Testify (98 points, 1 votes)
I think some people's votes were for the original Parliaments version but I went with the later, more "canonical" one
How many votes did Testify get? Surely more than 1?
― kornrulez6969, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 04:27 (nine years ago) link
Hey Shakey - shouldn't there be two votes for "One Fun at A Time"? Kitchen Person confirmed that he had it in his top 10, and I had it at #43. I just checked my ballot, which you confirmed you had received. Seems like the points total for that track, then, should be at least 157 (90+67), no?
― Chuck Eddy. He's a people. (thewufs), Tuesday, 2 December 2014 04:32 (nine years ago) link
XP I had "Testify" @ #3. I didn't specify the version, although if I had, it would have been for the original (the remake is hot tho). I've already placed a couple other "one voters"--"Children of Productions" & "There Is Nothing...".
― Don A Henley And Get Over It (C. Grisso/McCain), Tuesday, 2 December 2014 04:48 (nine years ago) link
I voted for the parliaments version and it was very high on my ballot #7
― Cosmic Slop, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 11:26 (nine years ago) link
"Roto-Rooter," and "Shine-O-Myte"!).
hey neighbour
― Cosmic Slop, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 11:27 (nine years ago) link
I misposted about this. There was one vote for "(I Wanna) Testify" and and *6* votes for "Testify". I didn't combine them. Maybe I should though (I doubt that many people really meant the original Parliaments version but I could be wrong...?)
― Οὖτις, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 17:07 (nine years ago) link
I did!
― Cosmic Slop, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 17:09 (nine years ago) link
Hey Shakey - shouldn't there be two votes for "One Fun at A Time"?
*sigh* There's actually three votes for this - all the entries looked identical but for some reason the pivot table in the spreadsheet didn't group them together correctly. OK so I'm gonna combine all the Testify results, fix this and then post a revised list shortly, hang on...
― Οὖτις, Tuesday, 2 December 2014 17:10 (nine years ago) link
altho maybe I shouldn't re: Testify, sounds like you guys know what you were voting for...
