In the premiere episode of HISTORY Channel’s series American Restoration on Thursday at 10pm/9c (June 5), Rock N’ Roll Hall of Famer George Clinton arrives with a beaten-down 1923 Chickering quarter baby grand piano. Before the piano was damaged in a flood it was full of memories from the past four decades, as the Grandfather of Funk has written and recorded numerous songs using this piano, including his hit "Give up the Funk." In the reveal, P-Funk puts on an over-the-top concert in honor of Rick Dale restoring this classic instrument.
