简介：
专辑介绍:Funkadelic 是很有名的 funk 乐团,他们的音乐颠峰横跨 70 年代,要说 Funkadelic 必须先从 doo wop 五重奏乐团 The Parliaments (请注意不是 Parliament) 开始聊 - 其团员有 Frankie Boyce, Richard Boyce, Langston Booth 和 Stingray Davis 与 George Clinton (后来成为 P-Funk 音乐之父).1966 年前三位团员加入军队,隔年 George Clinton 找来 Billy Bass Nelson, Eddie Hazel, Tawl Ross 与 Tiki Fulwood 加入乐团,随后还有著名的成员加入,他们是来自 James Brown 的乐团 The JB's 的成员 Bootsy Collins 和 Catfish Collins (他们是胞兄弟).由於 George Clinton 与 Parliaments 的厂牌 Revilot 之间的合约限制,於是 Parliaments 的成员与伴奏乐团决定重组乐团,正式命名为 Funkadelic, 1968 年他们被厂牌 Westbound 签为旗下艺人，以后发行了无数经典专辑.随著 80 年代到来, disco 崛起, funk 音乐逐渐退出主流, 90 年代受 funk 啟发的 rap 乐团如 Digital Underground, Dr. Dre, Warren G ; funk-rock 乐团诸如 Primus 与 Red Hot Chili Peppers 等,在他们的音乐中仍能寻觅 George Clinton 音乐的踪影.George Clinton, Funkadelic 与 Parliament 为 funk 音乐做出不朽贡献,影响力无远弗届,至今仍为人津津乐道.
With George Clinton, a humorous phrase could be nothing more than playful tomfoolery, or it could be a double entendre with a deep political meaning. The phrase "electric spanking of war babies" falls into the latter category -- it referred to what the funk innovator saw as the U.S. government using the media to promote imperialistic wars. To Clinton, the American media functioned as a propaganda machine during wartime. But whether or not one cares to examine its hidden political messages, Electric Spanking is an above-average party album. Spanking falls short of the excellence of One Nation Under a Groove and Uncle Jam Wants You and didn't boast a major hit single, but amusing funk smokers like "Electro-Cuties" and "Funk Gets Stronger" aren't anything to sneeze at, nor is the reggae-influenced "Shockwaves." Spanking turned out to be the last album Clinton would produce under the name Funkadelic -- when he hit the charts again in 1983, Mr. P-Funk was billing himself as a "solo artist."
