The Big Ol’ Nasty Getdown – Volume 1 (LP)

Born from a vision to bottle the magic of spontaneous, live funk jams, Volume 1 is the explosive debut from the funk supergroup The Big Ol' Nasty Getdown—a rotating collective of legendary musicians and rising stars from across the funk, soul, jam, and rock worlds.

More than just a studio album, Volume 1 is a groove-drenched experiment in musical chemistry. Think Parliament-Funkadelic meets jam-band improv, with a splash of psychedelic rock and a whole lot of soul. The sessions that birthed this record brought together over 30 musicians—including members of P-Funk, Galactic, Bootsy’s Rubber Band, Dirty Dozen Brass Band, and The Lee Boys—all collaborating freely in an anything-goes environment.

The result? A joyful, wild, and deeply funky collection of tracks that hit hard and stay loose. Thumping bass lines, thick horn sections, hypnotic percussion, and fearless vocal performances create a sound that feels both classic and completely fresh.
