Charly Records will shortly release a deluxe two-CD book edition of Funkadelic‘s 1978 classic One Nation Under A Groove.

The book contains photos and comprehensive sleeve notes and the second CD offers the tracks from the original bonus EP, which was a seven-inch vinyl release available with early copies of the LP.

I’m sure they could’ve dug up some alternate mixes or demos from this LP.
They should’ve released the 12″ version along with the instrumental mix.

The US version had a 7″ with the tracks on the new reissue. I’ve never seen the UK bonus 12″, but I presume the 11 minute version referred to is the same as on the US 12″ single (which also has a 5 minute instrumental version).
Agreed, it’s a missed opportunity. Not a surprise, given that this is a slapdash company who seem to have released about a dozen different compilations taken from the four Funkadelic albums they have the rights to!

I thought the original album came with a bonus 12″ not a 7″

And there’s nothing here that hasn’t been on the last 1cd reissue, as Steven says above.

Total waste of a 2CD format, even if it makes one get off one’s ass and jam! Mummy what’s a Funkadelic?

Steven

Wasted opportunity. The last reissue of this album by Charly had all these tracks on one CD. There’s a great live show from the One Nation Anti Tour (Howard Theatre, 1978) that would have made a great bonus disc.

I’m not sure why they are bothering with a second disc. All these tracks would fit on one disc. Less convenient and more expensive this way.

Gary Russell

Arrghhhh – and yet it misses off the 11 min mix of One Nation… that was on the bonus EP in the UK. Such a shame…
