    I'm afraid I'm really not enjoying this album. I do like funk - I'm particularly a big fan of Tower of Power. I'm just not connecting with this particular band at all. All of their songs are boring me to death. Hard for me to decide on which songs to pick... I guess most boring to least boring, I dunno.
    Don't want my funk stepped on!
    I spilled off the album on Spotify, and did find a couple of their songs I actually do like... none of them are on the album in question unfortunately!
    Ya need to improve your interplanetary funkmanship. Ya dig?

    P Funk is getting votes right off?  Oh, man.  Lol.  These are tough to figure out.
    4 votes for Handcuffs is a mystery to me. 
    You like it more than P Funk?

    P Funk is so boring.
    Yep, it sounds like a radio dj intro that went on way too long.

    Yep, will have to wait for some people to listen to and experience a great album. I wonder how many people know which songs were sampled for well known rap songs much later.

    Yeah, it could almost pass for a Zappa tune.

    I definitely heard the bass line from “Let Me Ride” by Dr Dre on one of the opening tracks. Was it from “Mothership Connection”? I always thought that instrumental was original, but guess not. This album was clearly somewhat of a blueprint for the early Snoop and Dre albums.

    Other people could choose to play along in the spirit of the thread and listen to a new album 

    Or, not.

    I did sit out Michael Molester....but otherwise listened to a few albums more than once which I was relatively unfamiliar with.  Part of the fun.

    Every 90's hip hop act.

    Go listen to James Brown and hear not only hip hop but rap and R&B samples.
