3 out of 5 stars Dim on Kim   December 24, 2008
Larry Weinberg (San Francisco, CA USA)
This album fun but song #3 with Kim Burrell is unlistenable. If something turns out bad why include it? Sounds like it was made spur of the moment and she is just awful!

I have enjoyed over 30 years of George Clinton through most of his incarnations. Parliament, Funkadelic, on his own or with the P-Funk All Stars, Clinton has given his listeners much to savor and commend. "George Clinton and His Gangsters of Love" is not one of those efforts. On first listen this collection sounds like tracks that were rejected from other works. After listening to this twice it becomes clear these tracks would never have been made and rejected from any of his previous collections. I can barely recommend a track, even though "Gypsy Woman" has Carlos Santana on it.

It's hard to pan new work from an icon in the music business, but in this case, it's inevitable. Everything here seems done on auto-pilot, and since Clinton's charm revolves around improvisation, this lackluster effort cannot be touted. I am sorry I bought this CD, and I am sure most diehard P-Funksters would be disappointed. If you never listened to George Clinton or any of his groups and chose this collection to check him out, you would be making a huge mistake. Listen to "(Not Just) Knee Deep" and revel in the flavor of Funk.

This is the natural progression of his work, in my opinion. I haven't like an entire album this much since his "One Nation Under A Groove". It's my newest addition to my car CD collection.

george clinton realizing that he's one of the last old aschool bandleaders surving is at it again this time he goes back to his roots which is ballads and singing you know bwefore clinton discovered lsd and contacted his many alien alter egos anyway this cd isn't half bad it'as good thew whole p funk crew is on here gary shider, kendra foster, kim manning, ronkat spearman, bvelita woods, plus sly stone, el debarge, the rhcp, kim burrell and jessica cleaves pops up on bootsy's classic as in I love you george does louis jordan's let the good times roll justice with a funked out twist and gypsy woman was tight it features carlos santana so you know it's on the 1. thank goodness george is still here to give up the fu7nk these new school rappers and artists could learn a thing from the maggot overlord another funking lesson maybe the next p funk cd george will journey to the 8th dimension.
