George Clinton and Parliament / Funkadelic bring the party to the Montreux Jazz Festival in this 2004 appearance. At almost 2 1/2 hours long, this performance is both an audio and visual assault on the senses, as Clinton and company fuse together R&B, Funk, and Soul music. An overcrowded stage of singers, dancers and musicians give a high-energy performance, proving that George Clinton & Parliament / Funkadelic are as viable today as they were 30 years ago. The bonus segment features other portions of this 2004 appearance.
George Clinton & Parliament / Funkadelic have received a number of honors over their career. They are 1997 Rock And Roll Hall of Fame Inductees. They have earned a Lifetime Achievement Award from the NAACP's Image Awards. And in 2002, Spin Magazine ranked them #6 on their 50 Greatest Bands of All Time list. |
