the only song i ever knew of parliament was , tear the roof off, it was the only one ever on the radio, but they are FREAKING amazing,this song ,cosmic slop, bop gun , the music is amazing, love the chicks especially the one in orange off shoulder dress, still love zeppelin ,but i have discovered funk and love it
Hay Eddie I've had the opportunity to talk with Gray on a few occasion along with most of the guys in Parliament I've had the pleasure of working with Andre Foxxe here in Rochester N.Y it was Funky........
Whaaat? ddddaly (respectfully) I grew up in Detroit, MI. one of the blackest cities in America... and not ONCE did I ever hear that is what Cholly meant. P-Funk has a history of converting unfunky people in song. Sir Nose anyone? The world narrowed down to two types of people for Parliament in their songs - those that funked... and those that didn't.
The late great Gary Shider! This was when he held court on stage directin the fonk..where's GC during this period? And what is that Gary is singing at 5:10? It sounds so good!
This is from George Clinton and the P-Funk All Stars - Live. I hope you can still get it. Put this music on whenever you're going through some stress and you can get through ANYTHING!
i don't know why this song is called cholly. i wonder if it is a reference to a guy in motown named cholly atkins. who taught everyone from the supreme , marvin gaye, smokey, o'jays you name them. stage presents and choregraphed dance steps for them. thanks for the videol
My dad was so charismatic on stage!! Truely Unsung! RIP Dad!!
he is icon of funk
Yes he was
May he RIP !!! HE KNEW THEY WERE BAD A$$. Truely miss him and the other band members that have passed. Gone but not forgotten
Un matched!
Also a nice man. I went to a show in Royal oak Mi a long time ago. I had an album cover he signed it for me. I never forgot it.
Garry loved the Chocolate city so much, he relocated in the black Maryland suburb and until he went into ancestry!
I was at this concert and am reliving it as I'm snowed in in Landover, MD
"Cholly" is actually a reference to Cholly Bassoline a member of P FUNK

Fav cut from that album. True Funk.
This was my favourite cut from the “One Nation Under A Groove” album. Gary Shider’s lead vocal is sublime. 🔥🔥🔥✊🏾🙏🏾
I can't believe this clip is on UA-cam. This is one of my favorite 'later' Funkadelic songs. Awesome-tastic!
The "dude in the pink hat" is the one and only Garry "Starchild" Shider!
R.I.P. Garry Shider!!!!!
The bass ending to the original track is so funky. That has to be Bootsy's funkyees bass line ever.
Skeet Curtis i think. Not Bootsy
thanks , man , love the funk
Come on CHOLLY
did any body sample this yet?....theres still some funk that hip hop slipped and went to sleep on
Oh hell yea
This is my favorite Funkadelic cut ever, the lyrics were genius level, Gary shider was a Funky Mo4 🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿🤘🏿💣

Whatever happen to Babs Stewart after the Motor Booty Affair tour? She is one of the few ex p-funk members you can't find any info on.
Anybody know who the singer is? Juni Morrison did it on the album I think but that isn't him. Maybe Ron Ford?
@nutmahatseba
It may be slang for cocaine but this song is about Cholly Atkins, the legendary choreographer for Motown.
yeah one nation under a groove
i also gotta live version off of a P-Funk All Stars live CD
@GShiderHarryGreen I back you 100%, and so sorry for your and the worlds loss!
Too bad you can only give 5 stars on here
thanks for the info baby i appreciate it he was very young when he died right?
...my friend, welcome on the Mothership. I envy you, because you're in for a treat...
You're right, this song is about Cholly Atkins - george said this in an interview once when asked
The dance choreographer for the ojays and temptations?
Who is the drummer?
The Drummer for that your was Tyrone Lampkin
