GRODECK WHIPPERJENNY "SAME" (PRIVATE) 2016?
The Grodeck Whipperjenny were a Cincinnati based group, who also happened to be side project / backup band for James Brown during this period (and thus the album was released on Brown's People label). Without Brown at the microphone, the band obtained a chance to extend their composition abilities beyond purely hard funk/soul. Not surprisingly, this is a type of psychedelic funk with loads of killer fuzz guitar and bass. But here on The Grodeck Whipperjenny it's combined with that European progressive rock take on the Jefferson Airplane! So we end up with a mix of bands somewhere between Stark Reality, Sandrose, and Julian's Treatment. Side 2 is really fantastic with a funky groove that won't quit. The album that provided a springboard for bands such as Funkadelic and Parliament, this album makes some great use of fuzz guitar. The mat'l shifts from funky prog rock, to prog jazz, but most with scintillating psychedelic flavor, via the extensive fuzz. There are also some more experimental tracks,such as A4, a sort of sound collage thing. And a few others are also less than stellar. But the extremely good tracks more than compensate
