If you enjoyed my treatment of Free Your Mind... and Maggot Brain, then I highly recommend you check out this version of FUNKADELIC's eponymous debut. Like the aforementioned albums, I find this record to be an essential record that's often disregarded because of the bad production. Funkadelic sets off the trailblazing career of George Clinton, Eddie Hazel & company in grand fashion. The highlights are probably the bookends, "Mommy, What's a Funkadelic?" and "What Is Soul?" (by the way, soul is the ring around your bathtub), but there's some excellent material in between. I find "Music for My Mother" to be one of the band's strangest trips, and perfect background music for crumbling some of your town's finest. This crew would go on to create a number of classics, but Funkadelic is a classic debut, and an interesting look inside the chaos that would come to the forefront later that year.
