George Clinton & P-Funk: amongst the most colorful acts ever witnessed in popular music history. Led by George "Dr Funkenstein" Clinton, Parliament, Funkadelic and their various offshoots mixed funk and soul with psychedelia to devastating effect. What began in the mid-1950s as doo-wopping pals singing on the street corner morphed over the next two decades into a wild melange of top-notch musicianship, wild lyrics and outlandish conceptualism. The pervasive influence of Clinton and his various musical endeavours can never be truly measured, but what for certain: P-Funk was and is a crucial stage in the development of funk, soul andblack American pop culture.This book covers the entire discography of George Clinton and the entire P Funk Family. It is a complete career overview, from the first doo-wop recordings of the Parliaments, the 60s Detroit production of Clinton, through to the birth and flowering of P-Funk in the 70s and on right up to the most recent releases of 2013. Beside the mainstays Parliament and Funkadelic, each members solo work is covered. Fully illustrated with a plethora of vinyl, compact discs, photosand posters, it's 192 pages of Pure Funk; the book all P-Funk fans have been waiting for.GEORGE CLINTON & P-FUNK - A PICTORIAL CAREER OVERVIEW INCLUDING ALBUM ART, PICTURE SLEEVES AND RECORD LABELS, COUPLED WITH AN EXTENSIVE DISCOGRAPHY
