George Clinton – Kickback
Biography
He was born in Kannapolis, North Carolina, grew up in Plainfield, New Jersey, and currently resides in Tallahassee, Florida. In Plainfield, he ran a barber salon, where he straightened hair, and soon formed a doo wop group, inspired by Frankie Lymon & The Teenagers, called The Parliaments. Despite initial commercial failures, The Parliaments eventually found success under the names Parliament and Funkadelic in the seventies (see also p-funk). This article focuses on Clinton’s solo efforts after 1981.
Beginning in the early 1980’s, Clinton recorded several nominal “solo” albums, although all of these records featured contributions from P-Funk’s core musicians. The primary reason for recording under his own name was legal difficulties, due to the complex copyright and trademark issues surrounding the name “Parliament” (primarily) and Polygram’s purchase of his former label (as part of Parliament), Casablanca Records. In 1982, Clinton signed to Capitol Records as a solo artist and as the P-Funk All-Stars, releasing Computer Games that same year.

Actually, I rescind my last comment: Norman Greenbaum probably has the greatest drop in listeners across songs..

Lol Parisblue was whining about smoking pictures at Fats Wallers page too. I'm going to vote the smoking pics up right now! unless they look bad.

His chart probably has the greatest drop in listeners I've ever seen; I mean, Atomic Dog is awesome, but so is the rest of "computer games." What a shame.
