Party People (Parliament song)  "Party People" is a song by the band Parliament from their 1979 album "Gloryhallastoopid". Over ten minutes long, it was released as both a two-part 7" single and a 12" record. It reached #39 on the "Billboard" R&B chart. Stylistically "Party People" is in more of a disco vein than the funk songs for which Parliament is best known. According to music writer Rickey Vincent it was the band's "self-admitted worst record ever."
