Hey, Man, Smell My Finger is the sixth

P-Funk material.[8][11]

The album was acclaimed by most music critics and was followed by a supporting tour.[12] The New Yorker called it "a funny, psychedelic, intricate collection of grooves and insights."[13] It went out of print soon after Paisley Park Records folded in late 1993.
