Our Take

Roll up, roll up, Funkateers! Here comes Funkadelic’s iconic album “Uncle Jam Wants You” reissued on sparkling silver vinyl, ready to groove its way into your soul. Strap in, because this funky train is about to depart on a wild, psychedelic journey through the depths of George Clinton’s cosmic mind.

First up, let’s talk about that silver vinyl. It’s like holding a futuristic frisbee in your hands, and let me tell you, it’s not just for show – it adds a whole new dimension to the sensory experience of listening to this album. Plus, it’s a real crowd-pleaser at your next interstellar-themed soiree.

As for the music itself, well, let’s just say Funkadelic have truly outdone themselves with this one. From the intergalactic grooves of “Freak of the Week” to the mind-bending synths of the title track “Uncle Jam,” this album is a masterclass in funk, soul, and sheer sonic experimentation.

But don’t be fooled by all the zany fun – there’s a serious undercurrent to this album. Tracks like “Field Maneuvers,” with its socially-conscious lyrics and blistering guitar solos, serve as a reminder that Funkadelic were more than just a bunch of party animals – they were visionaries, shaping the future of music as we know it.

So grab your silver vinyl, slap it on the turntable, and let Funkadelic take you on a cosmic journey you won’t soon forget. Uncle Jam wants you, my friends – are you ready to answer the call?

Funkadelic, the cosmic soul collective hailing from the depths of Detroit, are nothing short of musical pioneers. Led by the enigmatic George Clinton, this colourful troupe of musicians effortlessly blends funk, soul, psychedelia, and rock into a sonic experience like no other. With their outlandish stage presence and boundary-pushing sound, Funkadelic have been delighting audiences since the late 1960s. Tracks like "Maggot Brain" and "One Nation Under a Groove" not only showcase the band's impressive musicianship but also their ability to transport listeners to a higher plane of existence. But Funkadelic is not just about the music - it's also about the attitude. With their trademark afros, platform boots, and psychedelic outfits, the band embodies the free-spirited, rebellious ethos of the 1970s counterculture. And let's not forget their penchant for onstage antics - from elaborate costume changes to mind-bending light shows, a Funkadelic performance is never just a concert, it's a full-blown sensory overload. Despite their enduring influence on the music world, Funkadelic have always managed to stay true to their roots. Whether they're performing in dive bars or headlining festivals, the band's passion for creating funky, soulful music is unwavering. So, if you're looking for a musical experience that is equal parts mind-bending and toe-tapping, look no further than Funkadelic. Just be prepared to have your senses dazzled and your soul stirred - because with this iconic group, anything is possible.
