George Clinton - Do Fries Go With That Shake was Clinton's second biggest hit on the R&B charts after Atomic Dog.

I've only found one CD in Discogs that lists anything close to a single-length version of this track, and it's a general compilation on a label I didn't recognize:

Various Artists - Cosmic Funk (1997, Chronicles)

To re-create the edit from the 6 minute LP version, make the following cuts:

Delete 0:10 to 0:27 (on the 4, before "woah...")
Delete 1:31 to 1:48 (on the repeated snare fill and "Do...")
Delete 2:39 to 2:56 (on the repeated snare fill)
Delete 3:21 to 3:38 (on the downbeat, with "woah..")
Delte 3:29 to 3:46 (on the repeated snare fill)
Delete 3:38 to 3:55 (on the and of beat 4)
Delete 3:55 to 4:29 (on word, "Do...)
Delete 4:04 (from "...fries..." to end of file) to 4:16
fade starts at 3:47 (on the word "...fries...") for an almost 17 second fade

4:04, last audible sound is word, "do...", down about about -60 db

It's also worth mentioning the the actual album / CD has the word "FREAK!" trailing over the beginning of the man saying, "you know..." The single edit does not.

The version on the Greatest Hits dis from 2000 starts clean, but is denser than the original CD of the album.

For my version I copied the opening acapella speaking from the GH version to the rest of the album version, took it down about 3 db to match levels, and the result is a clean duplicate of the single edit.

As long as it stays up, you can hear the vinyl dub I used as my reference point here: https://youtu.be/rLcQQmEDNp0

It ran about 0.5% faster than my LP version, which could easily be a turntable speed difference.

Hi Gene,

The imprint 'Chronicals' was set up by the Polygram family
of labels in the early '90s for quite a few impressive
compilations. Many talented engineers, including Dennis
Drake, worked on the projects. Later on, tracks outside
Polygram made it to select comps.
