Funkadelic's self-titled debut may have touched upon drug-induced acid rock, but on their 1970 follow-up, FREE YOUR MIND AND YOUR ASS WILL FOLLOW, the band blows the door off its hinges. Look no further than the album-opening ten-minute title track--perhaps the most spaced out composition witnessed by rock & roll since the Rolling Stones' late-'60s psychedelic-phase--for the proof. Funkadelic is still a step away from perfecting its funk-rock craft. This album is hindered by very treble-heavy production, a sonic approach very unlike the group's future bass-indulgent works.

FREE YOUR MIND AND YOUR ASS WILL FOLLOW is one of Funkadelic's shortest albums, at barely over a half-hour in length. But the one-dimensional production proves even more frustrating. There's plenty of sonic experimentation going on within each composition, but it's all but impossible to decipher. Tracks such as "Friday Night, August 14th," "Funky Dollar Bill," and "I Wanna Know If It's Good To You?" are all highlights, the band locking into one killer funk groove after another. The haunting and tranquil "Eulogy and Light" closes the album with a fusion of backwards singing and gospel-like speech, a fitting end to Funkadelic's most 'out there' recording.

Recorded at United Sound Studios, Audio Graphic Services, and G-M Recording Studios, Detroit, Michigan.

Funkadelic: George Clinton, Raymond Davis, Fuzzy Haskins, Calvin Simon, Grady Thomas (vocals); Eddie Hazel, Tawl Ross (guitar); Bernie Worrell (keyboards); Billy Nelson (bass); Tiki Fulwood (drums).

Record Collector (magazine) (p.101) - 5 stars out of 5 -- "Mixing a dirty groove with wacked-out sound effects and razor-sharp lyrics, this is a superb first release..."

4 stars Acid Funky!
This album was made in one day while the bandmembers were tripping on acid,and it shows! George Clinton could have focused more on the recording process than the "trip"! Overall, it is a very good album! Eddie Hazel and Bernie Worrell dominate the album! I list this album as an acid funk classic,but, I refuse to call it an acid funk masterpiece because it is too short! Clocking in just over thirty minutes, I feel like the album needed another thirty minutes of material to satisfy my acid funk desires!! I would recommend this album to anyone who wants to study the history of funk!!

5 stars ghetto armageddon
very loud, chaotic but hey this is funkadelic and eddie hazel, and bernie worrell sow what they're made of all the way through. the title track is 10 minutes of the best rock song ever in my opinion, george talking free your mind, this track is crazy and gets even more insane you really think jesus christ might come with the four horsemen. friday night is stupid eddie goes wild, and I wanna know if it's good to you has one of the best guitar riffs in history, some more and funky dollar bill is about drug addiction and last is eulogy and light george clinton says a drugged out parody of the lords' prayer over a gospel tune played backwards funkadelic fans get this. p.s. the whole concept of this cd was to see how fast george and the gang could make an lp while tripping off acid this lp was done in one afternoon.

4 stars The Kingdom of Heaven is within!
Ahh!! Acid Funk never smelled so damn fresh. Perfect arragements and awe-inspiring freakouts; with Eddie Hazel's blazing electric guitar, Tiki Fulwood's hard-as-nails drumming, Bernie Worrell's jingling keys, and various vocal delights are sure to entertain those who need a 30-minute psychedelicious, eargasmic, funky karma jolt. One star was taken away because of the hushed sound quality.

Juan Diego plays a measured, elegant guitar. Music that´s inteligent, and different. Grounded solidly in the harmonic calmness- far form the competitive vertigo or other fashionable gutarists´ frantic, showoff palying.Some special friends offered delicious refreshment in the production, aptly named "Luminaria": There are also performances here by Diego Carrasco, Tomasito, Jorge Pardo, Carles Benavent, Bola and Dr. Keli , Musiquita, ...
