That’s Clip, but yes that’s what he says on the fade. :slightly_smiling_face:

Dang, my bad :sweat_smile:

Going down the rabbit hole on the differences between this release is what just led me to discover these forums!

I appreciate all the effort y’all made in sorting this out years ago, since I was just going track by track and writing down all the differences on a whiteboard with the goal of assembling an “ultimate” version that groups all of the different shows together. I can’t believe that it’s actually 7 CDs worth of material!

To be clear, P-Funk played the Beverly Theater for 2 nights in 1983. That second version of Atomic Dog is also featured on a compilation that was once available at supermarkets. I think I still have that compilation in the archives, but I’ll have to check.

Ok this thread has peaked my interest. I have had the US (I believe) edition of this for decades. Always the go to for live P-Funk. Are the differences between Japan and Europe worth the listen? Can anyone assist with the other versions?

I’ll check what version I got currently on my hdd and get back to you.

They are all different enough to be worth collecting, IMHO. And the UK and Japan packages are much better than the US release on AEM.

There’s no way to get around it. You need all 3 live box sets. These releases represent the most comprehensive live release by the P-Funk organization ever. No two ways about it.

I walked out of a best buy about 93-94 and left a hundred dollar copy of the Japanese version in the bin. Or did I already tell y’all that? Maybe. Big mistake. Never saw it again. Got the other 2 though.

Amazing thank you :metal::metal:

On closer examination, this is the version I have, which I always believed to be the UK version as that’s where I purchased it back in around 93/94 but seems I’ve had the US version all this time. So it’s the UK and of course Japan I’m missing if anyone can help
