George Clinton: The Mothership Connection

Rating:
Summary: Funk at its best...however,
Review: The show was from the 70's and the lighting just wasn't good. There are many shots from the concert where it is dark???? What's up with that? However, the music/funk was never better.

Summary: Awesome
Review: The visual is not that great. WHO CARES. I can't believe that I actually found this DVD. I have played this DVD everyday that I have owned it. I just can't get enough of it. I believe that Parlimetnt Funkadelic is the greatest band of all time. Don't let the crazy costumes fool you, these guys could just play there tails off. I will go as far as to say. I have never heard a band play this good, then or now. George Clinton. What can i say that will give him justice. WOW. If you are or was a P Funk fan. Then this is a MUST buy. You won't regret it.

Summary: P-Funk in your home!
Review: There is nothing in the world that can compare to the comfort of a concert in your own home!! This DVD provides that and much more!! In typical P-Funk style the stage is crowded and smokin'!! It is very colorful and the sound is absolutley wonderful! G. Clinton did an outstanding job on the song selections, eventhough every song that he ever put out can't be on here, the choices are great. Glen Goins did a masterful call and response and sing-along on "Mothership Connection". The concert effects of dropping the Mothership is far out, and very entertaining! Plus the camera work is not bad at all, for a concert recorded live from Houston, TX @1977, which was originally released in 1986 on VHS. Other song highlights are, "Undisco Kidd", "Dr. Funkenstein", "Let's Take It to the Stage", "Night of the Thumpasorus People" and many others. I highly recommend this for all true Funkateers!!

Review: these Shows are Legendary.George Clinton&the P-Funk Clan unload the Grooves all over the Joint here.easily one of the Baddest Live Acts you gotta see.the Band is so Deep in Talent that it will blow your mind at How tight of a Band they are.between Solos&long extended Jams you are getting every ounce of the Funk Non-Stop.this is one of the things that Seperates them from Acts then&Now: you can go back&Groove on the Jams&feel like it's fresh.no faking the Funk on here.

Review: This DVD brought back a lot of great memories of attending those monster P-Funk concerts in 1976-77. You can't truly appreciate the DVD unless you attended the concert. Jerome had the bass drum VERY loud through the arena like a heartbeat, you could actually feel it in your bones. There was a reason why the DVD had so many close-ups and didn't really have that many wide shots. Remember this was the 70's and there was a LOT of stuff going on during the show ;)
The greatest part of the DVD has to be seeing lead singer Glenn Goines (RIP) in his finest moment. This is probably the only official release of seeing Glenn singing live before his untimely death in 1978, only a year after this concert was filmed

Summary: DIDN'T ANYONE NOTICE THE EDIT?
Review: This is a good dvd for a 1976 concert.The sound quality is a little muddy and George's whistles are a bit up in the mix but my biggest problem is with "Dr.Funkenstein",a section in the middle of the song is cut out.The only acceptable excuse for this is if the original source tape was destroyed before it was dubbed onto a master.

Summary: " A FUNKATEER'S MUST HAVE"
Review: This is a must have for any true P-Funk fan. I was very fortunate to have witness the P-Funk earth tour in Los Angeles back in the day and trust me this is the closest thing to it for those who missed out.If you really enjoy George Clinton,Bootsy's Rubber Band,Parliament and Funkadelic.Do yourself a favor and pick this one up.You wont regret it.You need to see the Mothership land.

Summary: feenin for a live performance
Review: This is about the only concert that I missed since I was 12 years old. I've been following this Master for 24 years, and still it moves me to the utmost. I thought during this concert it had to many freeze frames. While they were doing that, they could have added a few more cuts. Maybe a solo by "Ace Ax Rodan" Michael Hampton.Other than that, I would recommend it to any P-Funk junky.
