Today Marks The 51st Anniversary of Funkadelic's 6th Studio Album "Standing on the Verge of Getting It On" The album was released on July 10, 1974.
"Standing on the Verge of Getting It On" is the sixth studio album by Funkadelic, released on Westbound Records, released in July 1974.
The album reached #163 on Billboard's Pop Albums chart and at #13 on Billboard's R&B Albums chart.
The album is notable for featuring the return of guitarist Eddie Hazel.
On this album, the lyrics generally take a backseat to the music and the jamming. It is one of the most popular Funkadelic albums among fans and highlights the virtuosic guitar of the returning Eddie Hazel, who had departed following 1971's Maggot Brain.
Hazel co-wrote all of the album's songs, although the songwriting credits were mostly in the name of Grace Cook, Hazel's mother (a gambit by Hazel to avoid contractual difficulties with the publishing rights).
