About
George Clinton’s Parliament/Funkadelic empire was at its height in the mid- to late ‘70s. Clinton’s ever-changing band of iconoclastic musical insurrectionists had always been underground heroes, but they began to gain real commercial momentum with 1976’s <i>Mothership Connection</i>. Keyboardist Bernie Worrell was a relative latecomer to the P-Funk solo-album sweepstakes, but his 1978 debut, <i>All the Woo in the World</i>, stands with Eddie Hazel’s <i>Games, Dames and Guitar Thangs</i> and Bootsy Collins’ <i>Stretchin Out...</i> as the best P-Funk-related releases of the ‘70s. The album is characterized by the same brand of slippery, mind-expanding funk that graced contemporary Parliament efforts like <i>Motor Booty Affair</i> and <i>Clones of Dr. Funkenstein</i>. The classically trained Worrell was always one of Clinton’s most gifted collaborators, and his arranging talents are particularly evident on “Insurance Man for the Funk” a creeping midtempo jam that goes through several movements in the course of its nearly 13-minute runtime.
