'Acappella Unsung Love Song(Sloppy Metal)' starts with George Clinton's
unmistakable lead vocal.Mike's guitar soars through space,as Roger Parker
bangs on the traps.
"WORDS ROLL OFF MY MOUTH LIKE WATER OVER THE CLIFF OF A GREAT FALL"
The sound is as spellbounding as a soundtrack from a dream.But,
"NOW THAT I'M SINGING THIS SONG IS REAL"
A song of love not sung?Yet manifest from a region that sings as if to be
real on a level beyond the normal concioussness?
Things aren't so pretty on the next track as Mike is a shredder straight from
the gate!
He sounds like a one man AIR RAID!Fasten your safety belts!
'Me Anti?' has some monster licks that just plain kick ass.
It amounts to all the guitar attack that Mike hasn't had a chance to play on
records that put his guitar playing in a "baby mix"underneath the
vocals.These instrumentals are nothing but "TURN IT UP AND LET IT RIP!"
On the cut 'Tryin' To Get Out Dis World Alive' Mike takes the metal theme
across the bridge,and then doesn't forget that rhythm guitar in the middle.It
has the Parliament/Funkadelic feel.

Leaving the metal guitar flavor of the other tracks for a minute.
'Comebacksly' is a great song that features Charlie Wilson of the Gap Band on
keyboards and lead vocals,along with George Clinton,Belita Woods.This is some
funk for your rump!The beat ,and vocal hook are irresistable.It reminds me of
some of the P-Funk that was done in the late 70s.The keys,and funky beat are
enough to make you turn on your flashlight and put on your sunglasses.
Where is the metal club you can go to when you want the music to be a fusion
of great nonstop guitar riffs?Why,'Club Metalfunkadelamack' of course.Where
guitars run wild screaming of the open road.
'Cracked Up Soilder' is a ghostly rendition of the riff from Funkadelic's
'Funk Get's Stronger Pt.1'from the cd 'The Electric Spanking Of War
Babies'.It recreates the sound with a wider scoped harder edge to it.It
sounds off like a march through a wasteland.
'Wrongsidius'is a string stretching finger bender that has Mike go all the
way to the edge playing solos and then even a step further.
'Chronic Reggae' is funk/reggae as it always seems to filter through the
P-Funk Mob.Much like 'Shockwaves' from Funkadelic,it has the reggae feel,but
something about it won't go all the way in it's imitation of reggae and it
still has the unmistakable Funkadelic vibe.
'Time To Get Up' is a ripped out hard driven jam.It has licks that are much
like the long version instrumental of 'One Nation Under A Groove',converted
to hard rock background music.This song was also a part of many live
performances by the P-Funk Allstars,and has Mike reaching for what sounds
like his bread & butter selection of guitarisms.And this idea is further
employed on the next cut
'Duh Kidd Funkadelic Anthem' on which the Kidd revisits his own guitar parts
that are the Hall Of Fame Licks. Sampling is NOT how he does it!He is still
able to reproduce all those licks at any given time that will send a
Funkadelic fan's memory banks into funky overdrive.A little bit of
'Funkadelic's'(Not Just)Knee Deep',and to another beat ,and Micheal's guitar
seems to tell stories past ,present and future.
'Girlz Of Duh World' is hardrock with a loose vocal that sounds like the Kidd
himself.
This song has an end all attitude and amplitude that are amplified!
It'll make some question what in the world are the feelings we are even
after.Along with his cousin Lige Curry they play loud and scream,
"EVEN IF WE DON'T GET PAID,....
WE'LL FIGURE OUT SOMETHIN' ..SISTA"....
This cd is some fun for a guitar player jack!
