There's a wealth of musical talent to be heard here -- most notably Bootsy Collins, Bernie Worrell, and Eddie Hazel -- and an emphasis on horns and harmony vocals. Plus, there's no overarching narrative as there would be on successive albums. Instead, this is a collection of stand-alone songs, none topping the six-minute mark. Chocolate City is a Parliament album that shouldn't be overlooked. Chocolate City reached No. 18 on the Billboard soul LP charts in 1975 and reached No. 91 on the album charts. Chocolate City, the title track and first single, reached No. 24 on the black chart and No. 94 on the Billboard Hot 100 while Ride On, the second single, reached No. 64 on the black chart.
