Listen
Summary
The P-Funk Collective…. Decades of musical genius influential in multiple genres of music. Dozens of musicians and singers. At least five different names and sub-groups. Afrofuturism. Riches. UFOs. Guitar players wearing diapers on stage. Financial ruin. LSD and cocaine. Drug addictions. The band that birthed a thousand sample based hip hop tracks. This is part one of their story. Part two coming up next week.
