One Nation Under a Groove - Funkadelic
When One Nation came out, Parliament Funkadelic ringleader George Clinton compared his music with mainstream black pop: "James Brown, Jimi, Sly and ourselves took the whole other thing so far anyway that most of 'em ain't nowhere near catching up yet." But the public made One Nation Funkadelic's first million-seller, fueled by the touching sentiments of "Maggot Brain" and "P.E. Squad/Doo Doo Chasers." Clinton's vast funk empire then numbered about fifty-five members; he constantly switched lineups and labels. "I have to play with it," Clinton said. "It's too intense otherwise."
