Bonkers indeed! And way ahead of it's time. A decade before MTV made videos like this [[called promos back in the '70s when Funkadelic made this clip) a staple of the music biz. Thanks for sharing.

I had forgot about that; it being a "music video" before they even became popular. Great point.

Here's a commercial that George Clinton did in 1974 [[a year after the "Cosmic Slop" video) for "Up For The Downstroke". Make you wonder what Parliament-Funkadelic could've done if they had lasted to see the era of the Music Video [[the videos that Clinton did in the '80s gives us a partial answer to that question).

George Clinton and Parliament/Funkadelic were wearing face paint and wild costumes before KISS ever came on the scene. I enjoyed George's videos in the 80s [[i.e. "Double Oh Oh", "Atomic Dog" etc) I just wished they could have done more in the 70s for songs like "Flashlight".

Probably the only piece of footage that features white token devil guitarist Ron Bykowski.

Probably the only piece of footage that features white token devil guitarist Ron Bykowski.

"polyester soul powered token white devil" was a label Funkadelic's album cover artist
and liner note writer Pedro Bell laid on Ron. Still, even though his woman made him leave
the group, his work with them was very much appreciated by most of them especially GC,
Bernie and Eddie. Good Thoughts Bad Thoughts from Standing On The Verge...is instrumentally a masterpiece and I was delighted to hear Bernie talk about it years back
praising Ron's sustained chords under Eddie's solo lines...GC had various phenomenal
musicians in his groups. They gave him the cult status P funk attained...
