5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent compilation! 2 discs packed with remastered funk!, March 26, 2006
By Rastaman (Austin, Tx USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I had The Best of Parliament - Give Up The Funk & Tear The Roof Off (1974 - 1980) [2 cd set] for years and eventually upgraded (IMO) to Funked Up: The Very Best of Parliament and Gold [2 cd set]. The sound quality is amazing on these recordings. Now much more on par with the quality of the music itself.

Same great music but the sound is better than ever. This is the perfect amount of Parliament for the car! And I'm glad I made the upgrade in cd's. While I loved the previous originals, these two albums in their most recent form are the best for me.

Every song from Funked Up - The Very Best of Parliament can be found on Gold in one version or anther. But Gold easily beats Funk Up for sure amount of music. In most cases extended or album tracks are used instead of the singles. You want the original singles? Get Funked Up. It has plenty! And it's condensed down to 1 cd just like Give Up The Funk was. I'm keeping both just to have a wide-variety of singles, album cuts, and sometimes alternate versions.

5.0 out of 5 stars rock and rap confidential tells us....., June 27, 2005
By jj (Istanbul Turkey) - See all my reviews
They make a point of not taking themselves too seriously because they know how polished they are - Greg Tate calls Parliament the chrome on a Rolls Royce as compared to the dirt bike fender of Funkadelic.
Extras include twelve-inch versions of hits and the live "Dr. Funkenstein's Supergroovalistic-Prosifunkstication Medley: Let's Take it to the Stage/Take Your Dead Ass Home (Say Som'n Nasty)." A Funkencyclo-P-Dia is included for the funk-impaired. There's also a vision of a better world, such as "Chocolate City"'s prediction of Muhammad Ali in the White House, Richard Pryor as Minister of Education, and Stevie Wonder as Secretary of Fine Arts....
