Funkadelic: Tear The Roof Off The Sucker, Live on KCRW
In preparing for our interview with P-Funk’s Lige Curry, I revisited tons of old Parliament and Funkadelic bass lines. One that always sticks out for me is from “Tear The Roof Off The Sucker.” It’s sparse yet somehow meaty.
Here’s Curry with George Clinton and Funkadelic performing the funk classic on KCRW.
