The Detroit performance in June 1981 was supposed to be the last live performance under the name Parliament-Funkadelic. There were no live performances until George's Atomic Dog tour in 1983. However, the live performance at 20 Grand Night Club in Detroit on July 4, 1982 was recorded with a high-quality sound as an audience recording at that time. The sound cut and the digital noise that was present in the master on "Bustin' Loose" and "Get Up The Funk" were also corrected as much as possible. Since it was in Detroit, you might think that it is the sound source of the final performance, but the taper presents that date, and the live performance was held in 1982. And the famous Detroit radio DJ The Electifying Mojo (who Prince interviewed during the Hit and Run tour) firmly introduces them as Parliament-Funkadelic. However, the set list seems to be part of the last tour of 1981. Still, it's great to hear a solid live version of "Electric Spankin' Of War Babies". Gary's vocals are divine. "Mothership Connection" is a performance that incorporates various phrases, and Gary's sonorous "Everything Is On The One" pops out, and he is in top form. And the last song "Standing On The Verge" pops out with the phrase of Xavier's "Work That Sucker To Death" released in 1981, which originally featured Bootsy and George.
