Info (found on the web) :
'NONE OF THESE RECORDINGS HAVE BEEN OFFICIALY RELEASED INCLUDING ALTERNATES AND INSTRUMENTALS.
These discs contain various tracks recorded by Parliament/Funkadelic around 1973. Many of the tracks are instrumentals or alternate recordings of various Parliament/Funkadelic songs released in the years following 1973. There some completley different musical arrangements in these songs and many of the lyrics are completely different than the finished product.
Eddie Hazel, Bootsy Collins, Glen Goins,Bernie Worrell and the Horny Horns are all heavily featured here as well as the rest of the P-Funk crew. I don't have any onfo as to how these were transfered from the acetates, but the quality is still very listenable. There is some noticable hiss and the ocasional pop but believe me,this is nothing compared to the ultimate funk bomb that is contained here. This is some of the rarest and funkiestP-Funk recordings in exsistance. Enjoy and SHARE MORE P-FUNK!'
