This entire article consists of WP:original research. It needs to cite sources that describe some of the concepts behind the P-Funk albums. — Malik Shabazz Talk/ Stalk 17:50, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
Failed to mention that the mythology stem from conditions of African American culture in America
For example,
Mr wiggles is a europeanized blackman etc. There is a documentary that discusses this even more. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykuHxOS0r10 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Darkman1984 ( talk • contribs) 19:27, 13 December 2010 (UTC)
I always thought that Star Child was embodied by Bootsy Collins and that Clinton was Dr. Funkenstein. Having gone to a P-Funk concert in 1997 that was my understanding although things were a bit hazy... Also I believe Bootsy is seen with a purple star shaped guitar and sun glasses furthering the concept as Star Child. Granted the P-Funk lore is at best a disjointed collection of songs and is still intended to be nothing but a good time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Doog37 ( talk • contribs) 22:06, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
I've added many citations to academic literature and the songs themselves. It would be great to have some real citations of the liner notes for these albums, which is where the mythology really expands. I also think a major overhaul might be in order. This article is essentially chronological. It might be more helpful for it to be organized categorically. Trumpetrep ( talk) 04:16, 23 November 2016 (UTC)
2 issues with this: 1. It was during The Flashlight Tour that this film was shown, not The Earth Tour.
2. Overton Loyd did the animation based on his comic book which was included in early copies of the Funkentelechy album. Other than being a major influence on Loyd's own work, Pedro Bell had nothing to do with this film. 67.86.176.102 ( talk) 18:34, 29 January 2023 (UTC)
