For Fans Of
Released in 1970, Funkadelic's self-titled debut was a radical collision of psychedelic rock, gospel, blues, and soul, a chaotic, genre-defying statement that redefined the possibilities of Black music. Where Motown aimed for polish and crossover appeal, Funkadelic dove headfirst into distortion, improvisation, and spiritual ambiguity. Backed by a ferocious young band including Eddie Hazel, Billy Bass Nelson, Tawl Ross, Tiki Fulwood, and Mickey Atkins, the album rejected convention in favor of raw groove, with tracks like "I Got a Thing" and "What Is Soul" pulsing between menace and joy. This Org Music edition, a deluxe double LP mastered at 45RPM directly from tape, offers the highest fidelity to date, restored from the original master tapes. A sonic revolution in its time and a lasting influence ever since.
