Game, Dames and Guitar Thangs

Released

Guitarist Eddie Hazel’s solo outing from 1977 is a short album, but each moment of its seven tracks is full to the brim with the licks of various members of Funkadelic providing a slick, churning funk-rock backing for Hazel to rock out on. It’s a mostly instrumental affair with that fat P-Funk synth bass and simultaneously languid yet loose groove, and Hazel makes judicious use of his Cry-Baby Wah Wah, MXR Phaser and Echoplex delay unit. Soulful, psychedelic acid funk-rock at its very best.
