There are very few cosmic certainties, but one of them is that 70's Parliament-Funkadelic always delivers. Cosmic Slop isn't any different, providing that lovely P-funk sound that everyone knows and loves very solidly and thoroughly through nine tracks. Strangely enough, this was a commercial failure when it was released, only garnering the praise it has after the fact. The standout track here is the title-track, which I'm sure anyone even slightly familiar with the group has heard, but a couple of others are worth noting as well, like "March To The Witches Castle", which was the first of their songs about the Vietnam War, and "This Broken Heart", a truly beautiful cover of the 1950's The Sonics (not those Sonics) classic. It's a solid and fun endeavor, and though they've done better, you really can't go wrong with Cosmic Slop if you're a fan of P-funk.
