Finally a re-release of the album considered to be one of the best P-Funk albums of the 80's. This came out around the same time as George Clintons 'Some of my Best Jokes are Friends" and in some ways was the better album - although at the time it was almost completely dismissed. I had found it in a bargain bin on vinyl (when there was only vinyl) and was totally blown away by how good this album is. All the songs are tight funk jams with the familiar P-Funk vocals (Gary Shider, G. Clinton)/ choral singing backup. There is even what sounds to be the first Prince and P-Funk collaboration 'I want your daughter'. All in all a great overlooked album that is finally getting it's due. No matter who this album was made for or around there is no mistaking that this is a classic 80's period P-Funk album. At the time, along with 'Some of my Best Jokes...' a powerful return for George Clinton and the P-Funk All Stars. Check it out!
