Great Underrated P.Funk CD, October 28, 2002
This review is from: Electric Spanking War Babies (Audio CD)
I am speaking as a true funkateer when I say that this CD is awesome. When "Uncle Jam" was released, people thought that Funkadelic had replaced the blaring guitars of earlier works with layers of synth noises. But when "Electric Spaking" came out, it pretty much mixed the two together, and the result was one insane piece of great music. Do not listen to the negative reviews of this CD on the unremastered 'Electric Spanking' page...if you're a big P.Funk fan and you're hesitating to get this CD because you've heard that it's 'not as good as the earlier P.Funk thangs' or 'the 79-81 P.Funk CDs [weren't good]', take some advice from a real funkateer: BUY THIS ALBUM NOW!

What A Career Closer!, July 22, 2003
This review is from: Electric Spanking War Babies (Audio CD)
After some recent clinkers,Funkadelic reemmerge as a
creative force here on "Electric Spanking".The tital track is
a funky rock triumph-enough to make Hendrix proud."Electro Cuties" is showcases the bands tightest funk.Part one of the
double attack "Funk Gets Stronger" is a genre beding noise-fest
of funk,rock and latin beats,lyrics and guitar pyrotechnics while
the Sly Stone-whipped second part focuses more attention on the
the indicated guess,even musically."Shock Wave" is an ammusing
dive into P-Funk-reggae,"Oh,I" is the only song here with any
"radio-friendly" possibilities while the filthy "Icka Prick"
could even make Prince blush,but not Blowfly (?)The heavily latin
"Brattino's Bounce" sounds like filler but it works in the
overall context.A richer,varried and far better produced way to
get into this particular generation of Funkadelic.
