Amazon.com essential recording George Clinton's Funkadelic went through many changes over the years, and though the group's name is here, neither the personnel nor the music has much in common with earlier incarnations. That said, there is some fantastic playing here. Newer members--Blackbyrd McKnight, Ron Ford, and Ron Dunbar among them--keep the energy level high and shift the music into heavy funk. Clinton pal and influence Sly Stone takes a few turns at the mike, and Eddie Hazel proves there was no guitar player better equipped to match wits with Clinton. The lyrics are sublimely surreal, and the band's musical quotes (including "She Loves You") are dexterous and right on the money. --Rob O'Connor --This text refers to a previous edition of this title.

CD ReviewsWhat A Career Closer! Andre' S Grindle | Bangor,ME. | 07/22/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) "After some recent clinkers,Funkadelic reemmerge as a creative force here on "Electric Spanking".The tital track is a funky rock triumph-enough to make Hendrix proud."Electro Cuties" is showcases the bands tightest funk.Part one of the double attack "Funk Gets Stronger" is a genre beding noise-fest of funk,rock and latin beats,lyrics and guitar pyrotechnics while the Sly Stone-whipped second part focuses more attention on the the indicated guess,even musically."Shock Wave" is an ammusing dive into P-Funk-reggae,"Oh,I" is the only song here with any "radio-friendly" possibilities while the filthy "Icka Prick" could even make Prince blush,but not Blowfly (?)The heavily latin "Brattino's Bounce" sounds like filler but it works in the overall context.A richer,varried and far better produced way to get into this particular generation of Funkadelic." Awesome man Sherance M Brothers | 05/24/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "back in 81 this was a double album which included atomic dog but was reduced to a one record set because of issues clinton was hAVING WITH warner brothers still this is a good cd mike hampton shines on every song here and this predates the whole techno, punk rock new wave scene in the 80's." Just a Commet starchild | VIRGINIA | 12/24/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "'The heavily latin "Brattino's Bounce" sounds .....'? Hey, brotha, that was pure African beats with African drums. I can also hear the sounds of the Nigerian armpit drums."
