Parliament developed from George Clinton's earlier vocal group the Parliaments and became one of the recording identities of the larger P-Funk collective. Osmium appeared in 1970.

Parliament's repertoire included Flash Light and Aqua Boogie. The overlapping musicians also worked in other configurations, making the specific band credit an important part of its history.
