- What do you think about this? see, and tell us now.
- ruth got caught up in the rock n roll lifestyle drugs that whole bit she went looney tunes and decided she was better off away from the madness of the music biz and funkadelic man their drug use was wicked. tawl ross had to be put in the asylum same with debbie wright when she had to leave parlet in 78.

- that shit iz fuccin nasty as fucc!!! now thatz FUNK!!!
- @rb7magnetico: Both. (music business - bad mix)
- man, is it just me, or is Ruth fine as hell? dont really like her voice, but at least shes doin some funk
- Part 3- By 1972, there was a rift in which the classic Funkadelic band left Clinton and toured with Ruth for long stretches. She opened for Sly & the Family Stone for much of them. Then, after an RCA album in'76, she disappeared. Both of the early LPs are available on the "Gimme Shelter: The Invictus Sessions " CD (1998). This includes her two epic Stones covers, "Gimme Shelter" and "Play With Fire".
- Where are you Ruth ? Come out and play with me. Slinger
- her voice totally reminds me of teena marie...!
- I know my P-funk but i did not know about ruth copeland, she is great..thanks for posting. Keep the funk alive
- First of all, it's JEFFERY BOWEN, and he did not write or sing GIVE ME JUST A LITTLE MORE TIME....Ruth is not Jeffery's wife. This was done on the INVICTUS label, from HOLLAND DOZIER HOLLAND, YES FUNKADELIC ON THE TRACKS..
- She was way ahead of her time or she was too much for the industry to market.

- this sh*t is dope! Funkadelic history baby, Eddie "Smeero" Hazel in da house!
- Osmium was some weird shit but innovative
- Ruth copeland this alive?
- Part 2- George Clinton founded P-Funk on that core truth and has never lost sight of it. The British soul waif Ruth Copeland became part of the new funk mob by '70. She made two albums of her own, backed by the Funkadelic band (technically at this point, Parliament was considered the singers upfront.) The LPs were pounding out FunkRock years ahead of Betty Davis; but also, with her poetic neo-folk dramas, Ruth predates the innovations of Kate Bush.
