George Clinton (1941) is also known as 'The Godfather Of Superfunk' and 'Dr. Funkenstein'. He is the founding father of legendary funk bands like Funkadelic, Parliament, The Brides Of Funkenstein and the P-Funk All Stars. Big stars who used to play with Clinton's bands include Bootsy Collins and Bernie Worrell.

(vocals, flute not sax)

A George Clinton performance is more than just a musical experience, it's a stage show, described by Clinton himself as a 'space soap opera monster rock extravaganza'. Several musicians who played for Brown later joined the P.Funk mob, including Bootsy Collins, Fred Wesley, Phelps Collins and Maceo Parker. They had a big impact on the sound, as it became cleaner and more groove-oriented.

Brides of Dr Funkeinstein
In 1980, George Clinton lost his rights on Parliament & Funkadelic and put together all the P-Funk Mob with the P-Funk All Stars.

Even if the "Brides of Dr Funkeinstein" came out before the foundation of the "P-Funk All Stars", you know what ? The mothership connection is here.

Stretchin' Out in Bootsy's Rubber Band
Though they never gathered together within the JB's, Bootsy Collins met Maceo when the latter was actually part of the James Brown-produced artists. After the split of Maceo -along with most of the cats- off the band in 1970, James Brown urgently substitute them by calling in Bootsy and his group of studio musicians -from Cincinatti, the Pacesetters, to become the "original" JB's. He will smoke under Brown's influence, then leave the Godfather by 1971 after an intense year of nastyful artistic production (among which the unforgettable "Sex Machine", Soul Power"...) to create his own "Bootsy's Rubber Band". From then, the meeting-fusion with George Clinton showed but unavoidable. The initiatic curse of Bootsy and Maceo under the successive masterhood of James Brown and George Clinton explains undoubtedly the perfect symbiosis between the two musicians.

recording is not included(at least I can't find it). This track is not on
the US-version, too (I don´t know anything about the japanese version).

PARLAIMENT FUNKADELIC P.FUNK ALL STARS: Dope Dogs CD/LP 1995 with Maceo

COMMENT: Most of the listed albums are released in different versions in
different countries. Of course 12"/maxi-CD releases exist to many of the
albums. I can help here, too. Some of the P.Funk albums credit PARLIAMENT
as guest musicians, so it´s possible Maceo plays on some of them, too.

Another addition to Maceo´s solo releases:
MACEO PARKER: In The Game 12" Rhythm Attack Productions 1989 includes
two versions of Natural Woman feat. Carleen Aderson
MACEO PARKER: Keep Your Soul Together 12"/Maxi-CD rap-project; 3
versions (12": 2 versions) + 2 versions of Well You Needn't
