The Spindle: “One Nation Under A Groove” Parts I & II

Today on The Spindle, Marc and John drop the needle on the biggest single by Funkadelic, 1978’s “One Nation Under A Groove” Parts I & II.

Devoted to hitting the “one,” the group turns well-worn words into new mantras, all in service of a groove that seemed like it could last forever.
