Are you ready? Are you ready for Thuh Bomb? Right now, are you funkin' for fun or are you still trapped in the Zone of Zero Funkativity? What will you do when the Mothership lands? Will you be prepared to Give Up The Funk? Hey, but don’t worry about it—after all, three quarters of F-U-N-K is F-U-N.
Now, I'm gonna be ready, and 1 owe it all to my friends Tom and Skip. They were the first two people 1 knew to become fully aware of the existence of the Funk Bomb, who forced me to sit still while 1 was irradiated with Funkativity. after which, of course. 1 couldn’t sit still at all—I was too Funked Up. After that, we started working overtime to send an emissary to the Mothership so that we could meet the Maggot Overlord. George Clinton himself. What follows is the amazing story of the changes wrought in our lives by the denizens of the Mothership, including George, Bootsy, and Kidd Funkadelic.
