P-Funk Productions

These albums were typically produced by George Clinton or Bootsy Collins. They often were albums of "bands" that were spinoffs like the 70's groups were, only they often involved new people and involved the older members less. {Axiom Funk and Our Gang are both really compilation albums, but were overlorded by P-Funkers}

These albums are arranged in groupings by artist; the artists are arranged in alphabetical order. Then, for each artist, the albums by that artist are arranged in chronological order based on release date. Each album has a "detailed info" link which will provide you such items as track listings and timings, personnel, ratings by various reviewers, and additional comments. A list of the artists covered here is below; use the links provided to jump to their location in this album list.

If the album is composed at least in part of tracks which are not duplicated on earlier albums, a link to the lyrics for the songs on that album will be provided as well. Meanwhile, in the track listings, links to the lyrics for each individual song are provided.

Reviews and comments for these albums are provided by:

  • RC = Rob Clough (administrator of The Motherpage)
  • JB = Jon Brode
  • MG = Maria Granditsky
  • CK = Charles Kupperman
  • MT = Mike Theiss
  • MW = Melissa Weber

    The ratings given for each album are 'within P-Funk,' and on the 1 to 5 star scale.

    *****   Essential, not allowed on the Mothership without it
    ****    Mostly excellent cuts
    ***     A few weak tracks, or a concept which doesn't hold up
    **      One or two good tracks
    *       Relatively weak
    
    GZ: Note that the lower rated albums, still rate high compared to unfunk!

    RC : A note on writing credits. For each particular album, I will list the first and last name of the writer only when it is their first appearance on that album. Thus, Garry Shider's first appearance on an album will earn him that full listing, but he will be listed as G Shider if he has any other songs on that particular album. There are three notable exceptions: George Clinton, William "Bootsy" Collins, and Bernie Worrell, who will be listed as G Clinton, W (or B) Collins, and B Worrell, respectively, for every album's track listing. The reason is because those three wrote the bulk of the P.Funk catalog. If a writer's full name is not listed, it's probably because I don't know it, in which case I would appreciate being given that information.
