Parliament Funkadelic

(no image)

Holy Bootilicious P-Funk Man!... I hear a noise... Why it's a bird, it's a plane, no... it's da Supacalafunkalicious Mother Ship Connection, takin' over our radio... Ah, the 70's and the crazy out-of-this-world music of George Clinton, Bootsy Collins, Bernie Worrell and the massive, funky sounds of Parliament Funkadelic! Well, time has not changed the indomitable groove of George Clinton and his band of friends for the last 40 years! As a matter of fact, they're as funky today as they were the first time the "Long Haired Sucker" took the stage all those years ago. Whether it be writing theme songs to Mike Meyers' Austin Powers movies or just layin' down the funk on stages around the world, George Clinton continues to beat the odds. As a part of his six, yes I said six, on-stage guitarists who have played with Parliament since the late 60's in Philadelphia,

Garry "Starchild" Shider (in a diaper and that's about all) and Ricky Rouse (who has played on over 60 Platinum records) hold a groove that cannot be broken! Visual Sound is privileged to be a part of the pedal boards of Garry and Ricky... both rely on the V2 Jekyll & Hyde, as well as the Visual Volume , to create their funky sound.
