Parliament-Funkadelic - Red Hot Mama - 11/6/1978 - Capitol Theatre (Official) 

@CALVIN BERGnot if you into rap dude.

Yes, and when music was made by musicians.

It wouldn't be funk without George Clinton...

what has happened to 'black' music in the last twenty years is an absolute tragedy. long live soul music!

we still here O.G.

Agree

Right in the mix. Its like he ain't even there.

That’s Tyrone Lampkins d 1986 He is my favorite Funkadelic drummer

In my humble opinion, Tyrone was a combination of Jerome Brailey and Tiki: Jerome's funky precision and Tiki's power.

👏🏾👏🏾👍🏾

No doubt brother , Jesse today the technology is better but the music is not ! check out Cristol KINGFISH Ingram , the young dude is bad , He’s a blues guitarist but he is mixing it up . Vernon Reid needs to get back out there with Living Colour ! Word, Bro. Ed

Gary Clark jr., Corey and the Funk Apostles, Shabazz Palaces, Anderson Paak. There is good music available now it just doesn't come thru mainstream avenues anymore. Because it makes you think and the powers that be don't want you to think. I'm a guitarist and I play all the time but it's hard to get your foot in the door nowadays unless you are some shitty rapper or look like a male or female super model. The mainstream industry is so plastic and toxic now it would make the average person vomit if they knew the truth.

Plenty of people, black, brown, tan, white...all are jamming. It's...sadly, it's just not on the radio anymore. But radio sucks. Which is why we're here, right? ❤️

Yea but they cant touch Michael Hampton and Gary Shilder, Eddie Hazel

❤

😂 legendary

✌🏾🌎💫🪐☄️🛸🎯

The drummer 💯 killing them drums

ISN'T THAT DENNIS CHAMBERS. ..?

The album they made in 1971 , was quite Heavy as well. There re metal stuff mixed in there . Like a crossover .

Ray Burton we have to also recognize The boogie-woogie. .

I remember they were band from baltimore for about 10 years because of some of those things they did on stage. The rumor is on of them ask for a jay and a lot ofo them was throw on stage. Plus they were wearing diapers and peed on stage

Don't forget the Latin percussion!! :D

No doubt!!! EPIC.......

This is Eddie Hazel not Hampton. Both amazing guitarists but this is the OG.

Sorry but this is Michael Hampton.

So who ? Both most excellent. I'd been thinking Eddie but let me know..

It's Mike here. Eddie was tall & slender dude. He quit the band as a full on member after 74 I believe, but sporadically joined live performances up until his death in 92@@lukewood9233

True Playa.

yup . he's liquidity ratio is pretty high .

He is absolutely killing it here. Fantastic underrated guitarist. And we all know why....

Yes he is awesome as well. But the big hat brother is Eddie Hazel and deserves the 1st string. I'd rather hear him than Hendrix

💯 agree with you!!! Michael was funky with that!!

Yeah his playing here is pure genius, it’s a really interesting contrast to sir EH’s style, definitely fire vs water in this instance.

IS FUNKADELIC BAD: IS SEVEN UP...?

Yes, so was I! I saw them many, many times as well in New York and in New Jersey! they are from Plainfield New Jersey and I am also from Jersey! also RIP Eddie Hazel, Glenn Goins, Richard ''Tiki'' Fulwood, Tawl Ross, and C ordell ''Boogie'' Mosson!!

U know u RIGHT!!!!

@@jaybritt6275 aaAaaaÀaa

Top 5 rock band also. This is amazing. Been listening to these boys along with sabbath, deep purple for over 50!

Play on children play on!

That's what's still makes him special.😜

George hitting the cymbals lol

I Love that too , He gives all of them a time to Shine

'play, boy'

i would have to agree with you

Me too

Yep

Gregory Rapier + damn straight, they could have

Yup...they are what every rock band aspires to be!!!!

Who Says A Funk Band Can't Play Rock

Eddie Hazel was a MONSTER!

Oh ya. Out of all the versions of this song this one hits the hardest. He makes the verse and chorus so much stronger. Guitar phrasing is perfect as well. That last rift that they play is only played once on the studio version 😢

Drummers are the key to everything, but are often taken for granted. James Brown said that in funk, ALL the instruments are "the drums". If you think about it, the essence of Funk is that it's like a drum circle with all the counterpoint rhythms.

​@@Shintaylor450finally somebody thinks the same way I think about this particular version of this song I've heard red-hot Mama played live several times but never like this damn!!!

I was there

@James Estes • This was at the Capital Center in DC suburbs of Landover MD. Dimensions Unlimited gave this show and Bernie Worrell gave an after party at his house on 16th street in DC that lasted until Sunday night.

@@knowledgeispower4313 lies you tell

🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿

Alright want a cookie?

@@fepp7893 Don't break a nail.

Hampton is the guy here… unbelievable vocabulary of technique… he’s maybe 20 y.o. In this video, maybe even younger iirc

Oh yeah I got all the Parliament funkadelic albums plus those groups you just mentioned I love Van Halen the early Black Sabbath with Ozzy Osbourne Jimi Hendrix experience led Zeppelin my favorite I love all that music bro

​@@JJJJJVVVVVLLLLL👍💯

Nothing like a pfubk guitar solo no matter who does it

I love that description. Your scruncht face.

That's called the funkface!

And this was 45 years ago! That brother would eat most of today's guitarists alive.

🎛️😩🎸🎛️🔥

@Chris White People didn't but Black People from Chocolate Cities and Vanilla Suburbs did!!

@@basquait1 parliament and funkadelic always had tons of white fans. Hell with funkadelic they were more popular with the white collage kids than black people. George or Bootsie would say the same thing

@Aaron D. Digby, Sr. agreed, Eddie Hazel could do what only three other people I can think of rt now could. He could play lead and rhythm at the same time. Other name I can only think of Hendrix Chad Atkins and Roy Clark maybe Jerry Reed to a certain degree

@@russblack443 @Russ Black Im not going to accept your Psuedo-narrative narrative. I'm 56 years old, and will guarantee black people were ALWAYS into both Funkadelic and Parlament from the beginning to the end. White collage venue's were safer environments to listen to Funkadelic than venues in larger black communities because being from Los Angeles, Parliament/Funkadelic were the favorite band of the street gang's like the Crip's, so many black people could not go see them live because of safety concerns, it had NOTHING to do with white people being into this music more than black people. This IS black people's music, so you can keep your fake divide, and conquer narrative to yourself, it does not fly with people who are old enough to know the truth, and who lived it.

Come on Carl you weren't going to lete get away with that,yet after I tell you what's up you have to delete you comment. Come on Carl please tell me some more how funkadelic was from Los Angeles

i have just encountered them in past month...but you know what i think you are right

@@julianciahaconsulting8663 , way ahead of their time.

George clinton& p- funk, is forever etched in my mind& thanks to my son& his studio I have over 200 songs. These guys are cosmic slop& maggot brain...☮♥️🙏

YES...IT...IS!!!!

ok i havent live yet - what record do i need to buy? Up here in canada in the 70s 80s hell even now one just never heard this stuff

@@julianciahaconsulting8663 It's called "Standing on the Verge of Getting it On."

Long Live Eddie Hazel... One of the Fonkiest 🤮🤢 Guitarist 2 Eva Play!🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🥂🥂🥂

TRUE DAT

dkapone Gil Scott in the profile pic. Dig it.

dkapone, U So Right!

Damn right 💯

OMG I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING.....WOW ! I'm a 66 yrs old black dude smoking so of God's greenery. I lived in Hagerstown Md. I also saw them turn that place OUT at the Capital Center ! I'm listening to them right now 10:10pm on 8-20-22 !

ALL FACTS!!!!!!!!

Ok bro funkateer have no color

It is SO sad!! 😢 and the way they oversaturate the sound in production to force people to listen and that the same 4 white dudes just keep rewriting the same song over and over again with different shitty lyrics. RIP music.

I would argue that LEO NOCENTELLI and the one and only JIMMY NOLEN could have a say in this! You're maybe right when you mentioned: "rock the world"!

FunknRoll95 it s mike playing not eddie

@@matsnilsson565 i think you best listen to the Eddie, and Mike a bit more there-

@@boogienights828 micheal hampton is the kidd and a pridigy

@@dangus61 I stand corrected, totally blocked out the "rock" part.

Good to yo earhole

True

Makes MY ears happy, too! Groovalicious!

Told Ya " it was gonna be GOOD TO YOUR EARHOLE...!!!! "

FUNK, IS IT'S REWARD....!!!!

George Clinton what a master mind

Stop trying to figure it out you either have it or you don't that's FUNK. That's my opinion Ever Fonkin On Baby.

@@smoo1148 No. He is simply reminding us of what George HIMSELF said.

It was the same line up lol. They were all masters on and in some cases above George's level if not in showmanship than at least in musicianship (which I think is worth more but opinions differ). There's Parliament songs and there's Funkadelic songs and they all played both for the most part.

Yeah because I was a member of the P Funk fan club! But George was the master!

Chuck Berry synonym for Rock 'N Roll.

Your moniker is one of my FZ faves.

Love this shit!

For sure!! Love this version of Red Hot Mama. Since I was in my early teens in the early 70’s. The first concert I ever went to was to see the Funkadelics.

that's Eddie

Not Eddie. It's Mike.

Agreed.....Check out Zappa Live at the Roxy

Yes it does.

Micheal Moore from Baltimore? Guitar player was in the Air Force?

Michael Moore from Baltimore? Was in the Air Force? Guitar player?

Like the time my late bro-in-law took my brand new brand new #2 driver with the oversized head & drove one 289 yards of air before it hit the ground. He told me it would be no good beforehand if I let him rip one really good, but I thought "nah, he cant warp it". SHIT...

I play this in my car to this day. If you're a real funkateer it's in your blood.

Let’s not forget the percussions in this joint, congas and drums are getting dafuk down

Haha! Yes.

​@@darrencoleman3099 That's what Funk is- a drum circle with melody.

Great point. The template sits before them. This shit is Legacy, just can't stand by and let it disappear.

I went to a P-Funk Concert back in 2002 in Portsmouth Va. I was shocked by the makeup of the audience. You had Old School black people like me who grew up with P-Funk and nothing but the funk. But you also had an audience of young white kids who proved to be just as big fans as we were. They were singing along with us and knew all the words and band members. It just blew me away! Incredible concert!

Eddie Hazel was up there with the best and was a phenomenal guitarist.

His solo album is one of my favourite of all of the P-Funk and P-Funk related projects.

Yes he was - but it is Michael Hampton playing here, who deserves even more recognition than he gets.

True

With the general public you're probably right but 25yrs after this performance he was inducted into The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame great band period 😎

I needed this today.

Put them against anybody

They always open with "Cosmic Slop"!

Saw them at AIT in 75. Broke out with Let"s Take It To The Stage.

1978 Chicago, Solider Field . General admission. My 7 month pregnant girlfriend, was advised to stay home. Came September , my first born , Casper!!!

And also at cobo hall in I'd 77, or 78 I was there when the mothership landed. The concert I ever been to, and I have been to plenty. Peace 😎.

Now that's dedication right there!!

Great Story... The good old days.....

WOW THATS AN AWESOME STORY BROTHA !!!

Yes so glad we got to see this History live while it was happening 💃💥❤️🎉

Fuck off, you were on a pushy the whole time =D

FUCK YES HE WOULD!!!!!!

I was watching this and all i could think about is how jimi Hendrix would like this. One can feel the blues so intertwined with the groove and funky bass.

What a twist that ya thing. 🔀😜

Them negros was high getting Revelation

Jimi's last band which was The Band of Gypsies were predecessors of funk music

Back when music was music. i am only 33 but most of the music I listen to is 60's/70's. The stuff made today is trash.

Not as good as the original

funkadelic music can't be touch way before their time

The master and the pupil. Simply! None of parliament musicians were ever underrated. George was Master conductor and Band leader

Consciousness-expanding drug
