Soulstrutter Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Found this photo of a band in an old Blues & Soul from 1970 with no caption and have no idea who it is. It's at the foot of the U.S. Album charts and have been through all artists in the charts but can't match with any of them so seems a bit 'random' - so wondered if any experts on here can identify them.

Kenb Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 George Clinton/Funkadelic type thing...i'm sure you'll get a more positive ID. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Kegsy Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 It is indeed Funkedelic. https://www.google.co.uk/search?rlz=1C1DSGL_enGB416PT416&tbm=isch&sa=1&ei=teLzW6XJKdLmsAex3bioAg&q=funkedelic+1970+images&oq=funkedelic+1970+images&gs_l=img.12...152829.154163..157722...0.0..0.71.278.4......0....1..gws-wiz-img._Z44pcNjDLU#imgrc=4jwOx9YAjWG2mM: Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Soulstrutter Posted November 21, 2018 Author Share Posted November 21, 2018 Many thanks ... So it is (before they went all psychedelic & freaky ... which is why it didn't click) - the photo is the same one from the inside of gate-fold sleeve for their debut 'Free Your Mind' - and right enough whilst the album wasn't on the U.S. album chart is was featured as a new release ... but B&S didn't put a caption on photos so was scratching my head!

I think Angel Dust played a large part !!!! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Soulstrutter Posted November 21, 2018 Author Share Posted November 21, 2018 Haven't heard the album so take your word for it but I was really referring to their appearance before they and Parliament started looking like this! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

There appearance and the more leftfeild approach to music when hand in hand. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
