Vinyl Wednesday: George Clinton - You Shouldn't-Nuf Bit Fish

So the first time we played the music from Royalty For Real wasn't in Amersfoort, the Netherlands, but in Bengaluru and Mumbai, all the way in India in 2023!Here you'll see me play Au Privave, Classy Cats and Royalty For Real, together with Timothy Banchet (piano), Marius Beets (bass) and Sven Rozier (drums).Au Privave is a well-known blues by Charlie Parker which I often like to start with, almost like a soundcheck tune. Although most of the time a soundcheck is done I found out it's a good idea to play a tune everybody of the band knows very well so we all can get used to the sound of the stage, the presence of the audience and it also gives the sound engineer the chance to adjust microphones last minute. During the soundcheck, the sound of the room is significantly different because of the lack of audience. All that flesh and clothes work a little bit like a totally empty room versus a room with furniture and carpets, if you know what I mean :-)Acoustics are so interesting and full of surprises.. Anyways.. hope you like it! - George Clinton & Parliament Funkadelic just hopped on their planes to Europe for their annual tour.. make sure to catch them if you can.. Tourdates hereOne of George Clinton's records which still keeps me hypnotized every time I listen; so much going on, crazy lyrics, all these synth sounds... It's his second album under his own name in 1983, the first one was Computer Games. Read more about the album on Wikipedia. In addition I read in the comments of the Youtube video below that the keys and synths are mainly played by Michael Clip Payne and David Spradley. I tell you, there's always something to discover..
