One Nation Under a Groove
by Funkadelic
The 238th greatest album of all time
One Nation Under a Groove, released in 1978 by Funkadelic, fuses funk, rock and psychedelic soul into a cohesive P-Funk statement. The record pairs propulsive basslines and wah-drenched guitars with synth textures, layered vocal harmonies and a mixture of extended jams and concise, danceable songs. It is often cited as one of Funkadelic's most accessible albums and helped crystallize the loose, spacey, party-minded aesthetic associated with the P-Funk collective.
