Title:
The Electric Spanking Of War Babies

Info: with printed inner sleeve.."With George Clinton a humorous phrase could be nothing more than playful tomfoolery or it could be a double entendre with a deep political meaning. The phrase "electric spanking of war babies" falls into the latter category it referred to what the funk innovator saw as the U.S. government using the media to promote imperialistic wars. To Clinton the American media functioned as a propaganda machine during wartime. But whether or not one cares to examine its hidden political messages Electric Spanking is an above average party album. Spanking falls short of the excellence of One Nation Under a Groove and Uncle Jam Wants You and didn't boast a major hit single but amusing funk smokers like "Electro Cuties" and "Funk Gets Stronger" aren't anything to sneeze at nor is the reggae influenced "Shockwaves." Spanking turned out to be the last album Clinton would produce under the name Funkadelic
