What the Critics Say

Funkadelic's late-'70s and early-'80s material has been recycled countless times on a variety of different compilations over the years. Not surprisingly, 2000's The Original Cosmic Funk Crew is no different. Plucking tracks from four classic Funkadelic releases -- 1976's Hardcore Jollies, 1978's One Nation Under a Groove, 1979's Uncle Jam Wants You, and 1981's The Electric Spanking of War Babies -- the ten-track set features such standouts as "One Nation Under a Groove," "(Not Just) Knee Deep," and "If You Got Funk, You Got Style." But since Funkadelic's early and latter-day recordings were on separate labels (Westbound and Priority, respectively), there has yet to be an extensive Funkadelic compilation that spans their entire recording career, 1970-1981. ~ Greg Prato, All Music Guide
