Glenn Goins was 23 years old when they played this concert and he commanded it like a man well beyond his years... Absolutely Phenomenal

They funked a hole in Houston this night. The horn section was super horn. God bless Glen Goins. P funk for life.

A masterpiece. Glenn Goins, a Master itself. Listening to it again and again. The first notes he played on his Mothership gospel is outstanding.

I was at this show...Houston,Tx the Summit..section 101 lower prom Don't remember the aisle or seat number.. I was a 17 yr old kid back then...57 now.. Still remember it like yesterday...what a great time in music history...so glad to have been born in that era...the greatest era

The last ride of the incomparable phenom Glenn Goins. When they invent the time machine, I'm going back to this show.

The best version of Red hot mama ever....they crush it.....Michael is a monster!!!!

Hampton! is a living legend.

Glenn was so great. always feel his vocals & guitar. Funk On.

Ain't no party , like a P-Funk party 🎉❤😊

Glenn on C of P! Soul so deep He pop locked for one second! My favorite singer ever!

Listen to Glenn Goines deliver such a good vocal on children of production...

They were incredible in Oakland that year. Funk on the green. Oakland Coliseum.

Man that introduction when they're playing the riff to Red Hot Mama wow !! Had to pay this a visit again 🤘🥁🥁

Best band ever. Always gave us our money worth. P-Funk Forever!

1:01:45 rhat guitar Melody soooooo sweet thanks Glenn RIP

Best live set I've found thus far... every funking moment leading up to Glenn & swing low, can't believe I've lived this long without this in my life & the girls... so on the one it's ridiculous.

Glen took them to church when he sing.and Garry did the same. God bless those funk legends

This might be my favorite live show on KZfaq ...so funky...Red hot Mama is face melting shit....PFunk at its finest...fully operational Funk!

My fave concert ever, I can't stop listen , I love these guys , thank u parliament, thank u Glenn !!

That sista on the trumpet ❤️❤️

I get goose bumps still , when they begin to warm up! Its a blessing to have this kind of footage to see...

Short story. . . back in 2000 I had to take the work van in to get an oil change, I had a greatest hits Parliament/Funkadelic tape in the player. I was a square looking light skinned hispanic about 33 at the time and when the two young black guys took the van into the shop they got blasted with the funk!!! They looked at me in shock and then looked at each other shaking their 18 year old heads. . . I had to tell them before they were born, I had heard "Tear the Roof Off the Sucker" on my school bus headed to 4th grade summer school. . . and nothing was ever the same after that! GIvin' Up the FUnK!!!!

George was AHEAD of his time, he paved the way for so many and his music is sampled by so many!!!

They were the best no matter what variations the funk up wherever they went they were my super heroes of music God bless them all living n the ones the mothership picked up

The best P-Funk show I have found so far, killer jams.

What real music sounds like. At 11:35 trombone solo. Easily 10 people on stage all playing their part; 50% improvised chaos, 50% tight musical precision from the rhythm section. brilliant. 1:01:00 glenn goins takes everyone to church. you can't teach this. the glory of pfunk.

The Greatest Show,!!! Of All Times!!!

HELLUVA SHOW....it's a damn shame that this work was built upon by the following generations...thank God for KZfaq for keeping the P.Funk alive as long as man is on this earth

i have heard that Bernie Worrell keyboards master has passed away some days ago...R.I.P..

This is one of the best posts I've seen. I wasn't old enough to go to their concerts. I always knew they were hot live as they were in the studio. Awesome!!!!!

I love parliament, brilliant shows, pure talent, swing down is exclusively of Glenn, this is one of the best shows ever produced, no doubt, george cant sing or dance but he can funk, genius!!!!!!!

I remember when they landeed the Ship at "Soldiers Field" in Chicago. It was a glorious Summer, that year. Smoking on some fine "Panama-Red" and enjoying the ride. Damn! I miss those days.

Michael Hampton 🎸🌹

Yep - open with a killer drum solo - the rest is history! They took the audience out into the cosmic funkosphere and then they departed.

Glenn Goins the Luther of funk

takin' the funk to heaven in 77

GLEN GOINS,GLEN GOINS,GLEN GOINS....unless you SAW this brother in person....what a tragedy that he was taken so young.Too bad this is video is probably less than half of their set this nite and on this tour. You had to be there...

Jerome Brailey was funky as heck on drums.

I love this shit. It don't get no funkier.

57:57 when the mothership takes everyone to heaven, those metals leave us to another dimension,gleen solo on guitar melody is so powerful and sweet, no one is like you brotha.

Red Hot Mama the funkiest rock song of all time.

Michael Hampton was barely old enough to f@cking drink when he played this show, and burned the place down. From the cradle straight to the Mothership!

1977...pretty dope year for music. Pfunk in America and Punk in Britain.

The Greatest band ever existed! Hampton Atomic Dog still funking for the funk of it!!!😎😆😄😃😁😀

Woow , what a sound , what a groove , from out of space : the silvers groovers !!! Funk therapy!!! Thanks Good vibes!!! ThX

Eddie Hazel The one and only 🎉

I was 15 at the time when they landed at the Jacksonville Florida Memorial Coliseum. Yeah those were the great days. I met Micheal Hampton when they were at the Gateway Mall. Real cool. Red hot mama.

Love the spontaneous theatrics. Art is music and free speech. One of the best concerts I've witnessed as far as audience reaction! Outa site from the seventies!

Wow, I had not seen this version. I am a life long fan of the group and especially of their performance footage.

Now this is a shock to find out that Glen Goins played bass on this version of Undisco Kidd. RIP Glen gone to soon.

we need more artistry like this in music. more visionaries. I'm only familiar with primarily hip hop and r n b music so i cant speak about other genres but there is no way that the music made today is gonna have the impact that P FUNK has had. It's been over 30 years and this still jams

Gospel Funk Mothership Connection and will shall funk together. Glen Goins was singing and playing guitar with funky spirit. Dam that sho nuff wanna ride !

When the show came to Saginaw Mi it was crazy, black folks went into a frenzy to Funkmania.The Civic Center was sold out, weed was in the air heavily. Something I will never forget. George lost the funk of the 70s the way it should have been and never changed.

THIS IS LEGENDARY MUSIC WILL NEVER REACH THIS LEVEL AGAIN IN THE AGE OF FRUITY LOOPS AND LAPTOPS!!! SAD

The greatness of Glenn Goins.

this is real 🔥 love this alll day and smoking some powerful kush funkadelic all day

I was there and every time P-funk is in town (Houston TX) all ways a good show even in 2012

When they slid into Bop Gun this officially became the greatest concert ever

i was just a white boy listin on kjet am black radio my freshman year in colleage and i was a hard rock fan but i thought this music was so original and cool and i stil do this never got its doo in the music world .. ... i anint no body body but pfunk is the bomb !!!

Funkiest human being whoever flew... we love you Dr. Funkenstein.

That part when they had that 🎸 session going on...🎶🎵🎶💚💜💚

This is so obviously amazing.

That's right. The funk is universal. It's for everyone.Stay on the one.

P-FUNK THE BEST STAGE SHOW ON EARTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THEY APPEAL TO A YOUNGER, GENERATION NOWADAYS I WAS BORN IN 82 YOU DO THE MATH. P-FUNK FOR LIFE I GOT IT VERY HONEST EVERY BODY THROW YOUR P-FUNK SIGNS IN THE AIR.

Wow! The landscape of their imagination was incredible an acid dream pulled to reality set to their own music. I'm not sure they needed an audience.

Starchild funk uncut funk. The bomb

We Love you DR. FUNKENSTEIN..... LOL... You gotta love it....

My group Cold Fire and the Bar-kays open up the show it was off chain those boys was smoked out i couldn't understand how they could still play!!! but man we had so much fun!!!!

I don't give a shit about the low resolution or the audio not being great... this shit is dope... it don't get any funkier or better then this...

👽2021...plz let me know it'z still some trippple OG P FUNKATEERS out there❗📡🚀😎👁🔥💖💜PFUNKN 4EVA💣

I Was at This Concert & It Was One of The Greatest Concerts I Have Every Been To In My LIFE !!!! ( I was 20 years old student at Texas Southern University THEN - ) . Seeing the Mothership appear form the top of the Astrodome was as a TRIP!!!!

The song is "Red Hot Momma" - 'Right-On Red Hot Momma (Girl) You Sho Look Good To Me"

Wow this is just mind blowing! Nothing more to add.

Glen was awesome!

glenn goings, catfish collins, gary shider, eddie hazel....damn, that's a lot of talent in heaven.

yes it is Mike Hampton on lead on the 1977 p-funk earth tour..Eddie Hazel didn't play many of the '77 p-funk earth tour gigs

I remember this concert, I remember all of them, probably about 20 or 30 for real, me and the boys still love the funk. This is a good post, this was one of the best, with Jerome Big Foot Brailey, Glen Goins and the rest. Are you sure Bootsy didn't come on first. Anyway this concert takes me back to those days. This was when GC was skinny and dancing. You gotta love that shit. Great post thanks.

Please let's not forget who started it all the Godfather of funk James Brown RIP

Back for my Fix...😶 Yeeeesssss Lawd!! 👐👏

This experience sent me to outer space

When I saw this show back in the day, it made me a bigger P-funkster than I already was, ( if such a thing were possible). I had the fortune of experiencing maybe the funkiest concert ever witnessed. Peep this lineup, Ray Parker & Radio, Slave, Cameo, Bootsy's Rubber Band & the Parliafunkadelicment Thang. That includes a blow job from the Horny Horns, the brown sugar sweetness of those Chocolate doll baby babas, The Brides of Funkenstein & Parlet. Glen Goins was taking folks to church & George Clinton was in rare funky form. They definitely tore the roof that sucka!!!!

Ray " Stingray " Davis With That Hardcover Basement Baritone @ 51:22 And On ...... Epic.

The drummer is Jerome Brailey

Love this show.

Nobody can call the mothership like glen ahead of his time

I'm dancing in my chair. I've never heard anything quite so tight, and I've been listening to P-funk, studio and live, for quite a few years. Something about this recording of Dr Funkenstein and George's nursery rhymes is just so tight and funky.

I was there in Passic NJ at the Capitol . That show was done with no stage props that night St8 Funk !

That Drum Solo !!!!!!!!!!!!!! ✊

The 25 who gave this a thumb down must be young hip hoppers who could not find a drum machine in this video.

Lawd I wish I was there!!!!

Kid funkadelic yall !!

Mike Hampton is a beast !!!!!

Is that Eddie Hazel on Red Hot Mama??? INCREDIBLE!!!

Wow I was there and in Washington and Philadelphia

I dont think that the band knew that Funkenstein was going to get them to play 'Music For Your Mother' at 1:23:42. Glen looked around like..Uh, okay!! :) , Then back to Thumpasaurous People. Great Great Band. They rocked the out going piece of the show.

The bomb

The song at 19:00 is Red Hot Mama.. And no Eddie Hazel was not with the group on this tour.. that is Mike Hampton on lead guitar...

thanks alot for uploading this. It's a dream come true to have some of that 70s shows, Just seen the documentary and crossed my fingers to find one of these full shows. Hope to see them again, the two nigts i saw them were unforgetable. 2001 - 2004. Long life the P-Fun

True uncut FUNK...
