One of my favourite P-Funk albums! Including the big #1 hit "(Not Just) Knee Deep". Junie Morrison is credited twice, under his own name and as J.S. Theracon. He played all of the keyboard and synth parts, not Bernie Worrell, as he states in his interview with Red Bull from 2015. Also he co-wrote the song, as he took George Clinton's 3/4 lyrical idea and made it a 4/4. I have to tell you this because my whole generation grew up with De La Soul's "Me Myself &I" which is heavily based on Knee Deep, but not knowing where it came from. Actually, another on Junie Morrison's songs is sampled in it: "Funky Worm". Here's the Wikipedia Link about Knee Deep. Philippe Wynne of the Spinners does the crazy and brilliant scat and Michal Hampton is playing a killer guitar solo.
It's pure art and you won't stop dancing at the same time..
