FUNKADELIC Uncle Jam Wants You (A bold and uncompromising response to disco fatigue and commercial conformity, Uncle Jam Wants You arrived in 1979 as Funkadelic's eleventh studio album - militant, satirical, and sonically relentless. A conceptual counterpoint to the utopian One Nation Under A Groove, the record's mission was clear: "to rescue dance music from the blahs." George Clinton and his P-Funk army delivered with a blistering 15-minute version of"(Not Just) Knee Deep", a track that would become one of the band's final hit singles and a cornerstone of hip-hop and funk sampling culture. The album also includes "Freak of the Week" and the politically charged "Foot Soldiers (Star Spangled Funky)", while its striking artwork riffs on the iconic "Uncle Sam Wants You!" poster, with Clinton pictured in a revolutionary stance echoing Huey Newton of the Black Panthers. Though not a full Pedro Bell cover, his influence remains visible in the interior design. This exclusive limited edition Charly reissue is pressed on Silver Vinyl, faithfully reproducing the original 1979 gatefold edition, complete with a lyric inner sleeve, restored artwork, illustrated booklet with liner notes by John Masouri, and a 1970s-style obi strip. Each copy is housed in a protective PVC sleeve. Recommended)
