Album Notes & Community Reviews
As the ensemble's major-label debut, this project represented a highly calculated attempt by George Clinton to push the P-Funk mythology further into mainstream rock consciousness. The guitar work of Michael Hampton is heavily featured, officially signaling a transition away from their earlier, more raw psychedelic sound. Dedicated to 'the guitar players of the world', the LP serves as a dense, virtuosic clinic in funk-rock musicianship.
