I think the world could definitely use a real-life P-Funk “Bop Gun.” I can think of all sorts of tight-assed politicians who could use a blast or two. In the meantime, I strongly urge all of you to see what happens to the normally uptight Sir Nose D’Voidoffunk when he gets shot on-stage in 1978.
“Love Removal Machine” – The Cult
The Soft Machine (whatever that is) in Memo From Turner. Probably not as handy as a love removal machine.
The Yellow Submarine that we all live in.

Is Simon and Garfunkel’s “Big Bright Green Pleasure Machine” just weed? Or is it something mechanical?
Hit me with your rhythm stick.
