Description:
It was Halloween night and Parliament Funkadelic was about to tear the roof off the Houston Summit, ready to bless the crowd with their cosmic brew of interplanetary funk. George Clinton, Bernie Worrell, Bootsy Collins and the rest of the P-Funk collective were riding the success of their first Top 5 R&B hit, "Give Up The Funk (Tear The Roof Off The Sucker)," a track that had earned them the kind of radio play that would bring the masses out to see them live in a stadium-sized arena. The group was only five dates into the tour when they arrived in Houston, but they were definitely ready to take it to the stage for an out-of-this-world show like no other. Taped on October 31, 1976, these seldom-seen performances at the Houston Summit represent Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic in their '70s prime, in the era of their Mothership Connection and The Clones Of Dr. Funkenstein LPs--a rare opportunity for everyone to get their proper dose of The P-Funk.

Recommended to all who wants to know who really gives up the FUNK.One of a handfull of classic funk,groovin musical artists.

Although this is the classic period for P-Funk the video quality and camera work are sadly lacking-sometimes the video smearing looks like 3rd generation VHS dubs, the perfomers are often in almost complete darkness,
there are no wide shots of the band, generally just closeups of one band member and no audience shots. Hang onto your $$ and hope for better.

In 1976 the full on rock and roll spectacle was new. The full on funk and roll spectacle was almost unheard of at least until the Mothership landed. George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic were only five dates into the P-Funk Earth Tour when the Mothership Connection rolled into the Houston Summit on Halloween night in 1976.
This DVD is a record of that show. Although the video quality is a little muddy one can imagine Funkadelic at its best. The music, the costumes, and the Mothership ... Read More

It was February 22nd, 1977....the place, Greenville, SC...
the old Greenville Memorial Auditorium...I was 12 going on 13,
and this was the second concert that I'd ever attended up to
that point with some older cousins and neighborhood freinds.
I had been aware of Parliament/Funkadelic since 1974 with Funkadelic's
"Standing On The Verge Of Getting It On" and
Parliament's 1975 offering "Chocolate City"...
both very groundbreaking lps in their time.
Then ... Read More

Since this is the only professionally produced live visual concert document of "The P-Funk Mob" at it's absolute peak, I feel compelled to give it a full 5 stars even though the program is relatively brief (85 minutes) and the disc contains no additional features of any kind. The footage looks quite good for 1976, relatively clear and the sound quality (while monaural) is failry clear with only a mild complaint regarding the EQ of various instruments (notably, Gary Shider's virtually silent guitar on "Cosmic ...
