Cosmic Slop

Common card · No. 327159

Cosmic Slop is the fifth studio album by Funkadelic, released on July 9, 1973 by Westbound Records. While it has been favorably reevaluated by critics long after its original release, the album was a commercial failure, producing no charting singles, and reaching No. 112 on the Billboard pop chart and No. 21 on the R&B chart. The album was re-released on CD in 1991. Cosmic Slop is the first Funkadelic album to feature artwork and liner notes by Pedro Bell, who assumed responsibility for the band's gate-fold album covers and liner notes until the band's collapse after 1981's The Electric Spanking of War Babies. Bell's liner notes to Cosmic Slop include small illustrations next to each song's name, summarizing the song in a picture. The album also marks the first Funkadelic album without any input from longtime guitarist Eddie Hazel, who had left the band the year before.
