    This album is the absolute funkiest album by the funkiest funk band ever and before you even say it yes it is overall better than The Mothership Connection! I have both and its close but the 4 gems Funkentelechny, Sir Noise D'void of Funk, Bop Gun, and the incomparable Flash Light make this LP the Funk Bomb! So very lucky to have this NM/NM condition 1977 Vintage 1st Edition Confirmed Pitman Pressing!

      Is there some rights issue keeping this from being repressed?

        Finally tracked down a clean copy and it sounds like a brand new album! One of my personal favorites.

          Even with a fairly haggard G+ copy, this mix sounds really great and warm. Surface noise can't stop the funk.

                  When I bought this second hand my copy had a polaroid of a nude lady inside it, is this part of a special edition release? I looked here and couldn't find any information about it. She has a big pubic bush if that helps?

                    Funkentelechy VS The Placebo Syndrome .

                    You gotta have the funk to feel the excitement grooves from the Highest Universal Invaders of Funk .

                    P Funk Labs with The Clones of DR . Funkenstein definitely will makes you sweat !

                    Bop Gun , Funkentelechy , Sir Nose D'Voidoffunk is the shit from this mothership funk theological dope !
