Once I heard the song Maggot Brain in a mix. I didn‘t know Funkadelic until then. I was so excited. Happy to see this album here again.

Reminds me to my wilder and younger days, although I wasn‘t young anymore at the date of release of this album.
It‘s rough but I like it.

I like Isaac Hayes very much. Good voice and fine soul. I was surprised to learn, that he played the Duke in Carpenters Escape from New York.

Rated 8/10

It's a kind of minimal sound I like. Nice album.

Interesting album. Sometimes it sounds like Yes or the Peter Gabriel. I think the vocals were extrem difficult. Reminds me to Sledgehammer which I tried to sing in earlier times.

Rated 8/10

I like this Prog-Rock especially the long Overture. In some parts it reminds me to the early Genesis. The krautrock impact is evident, but Iike it.

Surprisingly good. I heard 'Come on Eileen' in the early 80's again and again. In the beginning I was a fan. In the end it sucks. I didn't want to hear anything again from the dexys. But this debut album is interesting. It won't become my favorite, but it I like some parts of it, especially the brass.
