Charly Records, also known as Charly, is a British label specializing in reissuing old music from iconic catalogs such as Sun Record Company and Chess. Founded by Jean-Luc Young in France in 1974 and later moved to England in 1975, Charly Records has become a renowned name in the industry.

Throughout its history, Charly Records established various associated companies for licensing and rights, including Charly Records International APS based in Denmark and Charly Holdings Inc. registered in the USA. In the 1990s, they collaborated with Movieplay Portuguesa for CD releases, resulting in the presence of SPA rights society on those releases.

Despite being dissolved in 2001, Charly Records underwent new management and became part of the Snapper Music group. Today, it continues to distribute its reissued music through their extensive network.

Funkadelic is an American band that rose to prominence in the 1970s, playing a pivotal role in shaping the funk music culture of that decade. Led by George Clinton, Funkadelic and its sister act played a significant part in establishing the genre's unique sound and style.

With their innovative approach to music, Funkadelic became a driving force behind the funk movement. Their groovy beats and soulful melodies captivated audiences worldwide, earning them a well-deserved spot in the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame in 1997 as performers.

Today, Funkadelic's legacy lives on as their influential music continues to inspire new generations of artists and fans alike. Experience the timeless sounds of this iconic band through our curated collection of their albums and merchandise available at our e-commerce store.

1979's Uncle Jam Wants You was the band's eleventh studio LP. More militant in tone than its predecessor One Nation Under A Groove which essayed a Funk utopia, Uncle Jam's stated mandate was to "rescue dance music from the blahs". The album features a 15-minute version of what was to become the band's last hit single '(Not Just) Knee Deep', an edited version of which made US R&amp;B No.1. Uncle Jam... had a huge influence on the hip-hop scene, notably the legendary Uncle Jamm's Army. This was Funkadelic's first album since 1972 not to feature a cover design by artist Pedro Bell (although he did contribute to the interior design). Referencing the "Uncle Sam Wants You!" US Army recruitment poster, the sleeve depicts George Clinton aka Dr Funkenstein in a Huey Newton Black Panthers pose
