Russian Player: We very much like Elton John in the Soviet Union.
Curtis Jackson: I'm into the Funkadelic myself.
Russian Player: Funkawhat?


A few weeks ago I bought Funkadelic's second album, today I got their debut one.

In Rock Dreams, Jimi Hendrix famously tells a New York Times reporter that he's from Mars. Which leaves me wondering exactly what planet Funkadelic was from. These albums are quite the trip...

    I picked up Parliament's "Mothership Connection" last summer, which has the classic, "Give Up the Funk (Tear the Roof off the Sucker)". It's pretty good.

    I bought that album a couple of weeks ago as well. UND's band plays that song at their hockey games.
