 | | One Nation Under a Groove was not only Funkadelic's greatest moment, it was their most popular album, bringing them an unprecedented commercial breakthrough by going platinum and spawning a number one R&B smash in the title track. | | | In any form, One Nation Under a Groove is the best realization of Funkadelic's ambitions, and one of the best funk albums ever released. | | | Furthermore, out of George Clinton's many conceptual albums (serious and otherwise), One Nation Under a Groove is the pinnacle of his political consciousness. |

| | Blogcritics.org: Funkadelic - One Nation Under a Groove 1978 |
| | One Nation Under A Groove is a collection of songs from different perspectives, but still under the GROOVE. | | | Well man, the One Nation album is a mixture of songs, it ranges from dance funk, to straight funk, to funk metal, to progressive soul. | | | Actually, the only "One Nation" track that I really think goes on a bit too long without much happening is "Who Says..." and maybe the title track. |

| | The band jams out the national anthem for a quarter of an hour, and when they are done, the ethnically diverse crowd is united in applause that lasts for 10 solid minutes. | | | Over the "wikka-tikka" funk guitar riff and wildly syncopated groove, lyrics like "Top billing now is killing/ For peace no one is willing" reach those who are listening and some freeze, faces fixed with a look of recognition. | | | I think we as a nation need a national anthem that expresses, perhaps cathartically, the fear and stress that is a natural part of living in America right now. |

| | Salon.com Arts & Entertainment One nation under a groove |
| | Our current national anthem represents a woefully outdated national image, one that does not recognize the last 100-plus years of our cultural history, or the modern realities of our society (not that any nation's anthem really does this). | | | Of course, there is another song whose title begins with the same words, and someone will suggest that Bobby McFerrin's tune would be a better replacement for our national anthem. | | | Furthermore, being so radically different from other anthems, it would become an international pop hit -- nations would look forward to visits from American dignitaries, just so they could get to hear, or play, our funky anthem. |

| | The New York Review of Books: One Nation Under a Groove |
| | Kempton's second major subject, Sam Cooke, emerged from quartet culture and made himself into a bridge, not just between sacred and profane but between the black and white nations, between the "chitlin circuit" and the Copacabana. | | | Soon, however, he underwent a nervous collapse, and then a conversion experience under the influence of the most electrifying of the era's singing preachers, the Reverend A.W. Nix. | | | As a rough, down-home, gutbucket pianist, he found himself beneath notice in the national capital of black musical sophistication, the city to which the mainstream of New Orleans jazz had emigrated en masse just before the First World War. |

You can play this music and still rock any party. | | | My mother owned the LP "Clones of Dr. Funkestein" and I was engulfed by the grooves of " Do That Stuff," "Dr. Funkenstein" and "Gamin' On Ya!" She would tell me of the amazing concerts that took place in the 70s and let me know it was nothing she had never seen or witnessed before. |

| | Simon and Garfunkel, "America." The national anthem for people who still wear socks and sandals. | | | James Brown, "Livin' in America." The national anthem for people in tall, sparkly platform shoes who are inclined to kick people wearing socks and sandals. | | | Not quite as literary as Simon and Garfunkel, but Brown's all-night diner sounds far more fun than ogling the man in the gabardine suit on the bus. |

| | Early one morning, bandleader George Clinton was outside the UN headquarters as he and two girlfriends were shooting film for a Parliament/Funkadelic movie that was never finished. | | | P-Funk's signature prop, the Mothership, was landing as a UN staffer started to raise the flags of the member nations. | | | This was inspired by an event at the United Nations. |

| | When "One Nation" came out, Parliament Funkadelic ringleader George Clinton compared his music with mainstream black pop: "James Brown, Jimi, Sly and ourselves took the whole other thing so far anyway that most of 'em ain't nowhere near catching up yet." But the public made | | | The package also includes a 45 EP containing a live version of "Maggot Brain." Clinton's imagination, audible on vinyl, becomes quite visual on the spaced-out album jacket concept. | | | This philosophy included the breaking of musical barriers on the tense "Who Says A Funk Band Can't Play Rock?" But dance music remains Clinton's specialty. |
