The video, "S2 Ep16: Season 2 Finale Osmium Album Review," features PTFI and Dav Id K-OS discussing Osmium, Parliament's first album, released in July 1970 (3:12). They explore its historical context, particularly its relationship with Funkadelic's debut album released earlier in 1970 (23:28).
Here are the highlights of their review:
Album Title and Artwork (4:17): The hosts discuss the album's title, Osmium, which is an element (4:39) and the artwork featuring the band members in various costumes, suggesting it was an inspiration for the Village People (5:55).
Musical Style and Influences (8:01): They note that the album sounds more like a Funkadelic album than a Parliament album (8:01). They discuss the heavy metal nature of the music, fitting the "Osmium" title (27:40), and highlight the significant gospel and country influences throughout the album (30:02).
"I Call My Baby Pussycat" (15:44): This track is discussed as the original version of "America Eats Young" (16:41). They highlight the song's unexpected intro and its shift in style (17:19).
"Put Love In Your Life" (28:20): Described as a "heavy metal gospel song" (30:02), this track showcases the band's spiritual leanings and connection to blues, gospel, and rock and roll (30:26).
"Little Ole Country Boy" (41:17): The hosts are surprised by the country music style of this song, especially its opening sample that was later used by De La Soul (42:22).
Key Personnel (24:50): They identify the main Parliament vocalists and the Funkadelic musicians (Tiki Fullwood, Billy Bass Nelson, Eddie Hazel, Tawl Ross, Bernie Worrell) as the players on the album (24:50). They also mention Ruth Copeland and her connection to George Clinton and Funkadelic (25:46).
