Didn't you recognise the bit Primal Scream nicked for Losing More Than I'll Ever Have/Loaded?
Oh wait i bet you only know Loaded. Well its obviously on that anyway and a lot of people mistakenly think that was a Wetherall bit. But it's on the original.

If the hard rock numbers, of which there are about three, are supposed to be great, in 1975 these boys easily get stomped by second and third tier white boy blooz bands in the arenas. "Alice in My Fantasies" is the best of them, but it's brief. "Red Hot Mamma" has way too much George Clinton cough syrup and speed freak vocal bullshit at the beginning. "Jimmy's Got a Little Bit of Bitch In Him" is average -- probably seemed audacious at the time because it was about the down low -- but Frank Zappa & the Mothers were doing a lot like it a few years earlier. "Good Thoughts, Bad Thoughts" is sub-Hendrix guitar wank from Eddie Hazel who I assume often did better and more George Clinton theology through cough syrup recitation. Album art is great, so are the liner notes. Title cut is OK but the funk ain't THAT funky and the best part again is Hazel's guitar. It's better as the single edit on the bonus tracks because it's shorter. And "Vital Signs" is a funky hard rock instro which is fair, included as a bonus cut.
Title of songs, I've noted in the Funkadelic catalog, are often actually better than the songs themselves, what I've heard of them, anyway.
I don't think any of those white blooz bands could stomp on Funkadelic somehow.
