Demon Records is proud to present Osmium - the first recordings credited to the funk-rock ensemble Parliament-Funkadelic. Produced by Ruth Copeland, Osmium offers up a diverse bag of tricks comprising gospel, soul, funk, rock, and country arrangements with accompaniment ranging from heavy electric guitar fuzz, acoustic serenity, and even bagpipes. Many of these recordings are still as far-out as they sounded when first released. However, the tracks here represent the genesis of what would become P-Funk and the entity that would give the world ground-breaking albums Maggot Brain (1971), Mothership Connection (1975), and One Nation Under a Groove (1978).
