PARLIMENT & FUNKADELIC - The Summit, Houston, TX

Parliament Funkadelic "The P-Funk Earth Tour"

"The Summit" Houston, TX 1977 (90mins)

The Mothership flies on through 1977.
The P-Funk Earth Tour continued to break new ground for touring R& B acts of the time. The success of Parliament and
it's emphasis on large scale stage productions, huge sound systems, and elaborate costumes had set a standard that
caused other groups to quickly beef-up their stage productions.

The beginning of this show starts with the entire band jamming out the "Prelude" then leaving the stage for a drum
solo by Jerome "Bigfoot" Brailey. As the band members come back to the stage the show begins in earnest
with "Dr. Funkenstein" and George emerging from the satin Rolls Royce to the screaming crowd.
Another show highlight is Garry "Starchild" Shider being hoisted high above the audience on wires while shooting
concert-goers with his Bop Gun.
With The Horny Horns (Mr. Parker, Griffin, Gardner and Wesley) now with Bootsy's Rubber Band, "Funkentelechy" session
players Clay Lawrey, Darryl Dixon, Valerie Drayton, and Danny Cortez hold down the horn parts for this tour.
Sadly this would be guitarist /vocalist extraordinaire Glenn Goins' last tour with the Funk Mob. Glenn's
presence in P-Funk cannot be underestimated as he is considered by many to be the best voice ever in P-Funk,
a group known for having so many great singers. Glenn and Jerome would later hook-up to form Quazar but
he unfortunately passed away of Hodgkin's Disease on July 30, 1978. (Info courtesy of R.G.)
