I gave this band a couple of good thorough listenings a couple of months ago, and I must say I wasn't disappointed.

Pfunk is very awesome. One thing that most people don't know about them is that their lead man George Clinton actually isn't the "genius" behind the band. It was more Bernie Worrel on keyboards that did all the work. George was just good at getting all the attention. Also Eddie Hazel did a lot of work once he joined the band.

The real faithful should check out Bernie Worrells solo stuff such as Improvisczario or Eddie Hazels Game Dames and Guitar Thangs

And writing or co-writing nearly every song they ever did.

Wayfarer I completely agree that George did a lot of the work for the bands, I just think he gets too much credit in comparison to the other band members like, Worrell, Hazel, bootsy and the like.

I don`t think Eddie Hazel gets anywhere near the amount of credit he deserves as a guitarist.
I agree..

I've never real listened to their records, but I saw em live for a Juneteenth show, and they kick ass. George Clinton's out of his damn mind, but that's the only way I'd have it. I gotta get into their records soon, and hope they come back for a third time. :x

We're talkin bout P Funk, right? If not, I'm quite lost.
