The phrase \"electric spanking of war babies\" falls into the latter category -- it referred to what the funk innovator saw as the U.S. government using the media to promote imperialistic wars. To Clinton, the American media functioned as a propaganda machine during wartime. But whether or not one cares to examine its hidden political messages, Electric Spanking is an above-average party album. Spanking falls short of the excellence of One Nation Under a Groove and Uncle Jam Wants You and didn't boast a major hit single, but amusing funk smokers like \"Electro-Cuties\" and \"Funk Gets Stronger\" aren't anything to sneeze at, nor is the reggae-influenced \"Shockwaves.\" Spanking turned out to be the last album Clinton would produce under the name Funkadelic -- when he hit the charts again in 1983, Mr. P-Funk was billing himself as a \"solo artist.\" ~ Alex Henderson","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51487414944031,"sku":"803415867622","price":18.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/c1cc473710710973128ec46fed05dc66.jpg?v=1777799345","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/electric-spanking-of-war-babies","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
