I have been listening to Mr. Collins solo in Ain't it Funky now, with James Brown and the JBs live in Paris, (Love, Peace Power) for years now and I never tire of it. This guy was not only funky but tasty and inventive. The world just got a little less funky and heaven got a little more. RIP my brother.

[kelseybud]

F.I.P. Catfisf Collins another big musical influence to me. Danm! my first day on this youtube stuff and finding out two of the FUNK Mob members has transcented on. A sad night for me.

[bushtales]

@kelseybud Well....don't want to make it even heavier 4 u, but....Mallia Queen of Funk Franklin, and Georgie Clinton (Jr), have passed away also...

2010 was an extremely sad year for the US Funk Mob.....

Thanks for passing by on your first youtube adventure, only wished that it would be more fun for you ,instead of 'a sad night'...

Keep the Funk alive..'P'.

[dal4018]

As a bass player and funk lover I had the pleasure to listen and dig James Brown's music.. I will always be a fan of you and your brother Bootsy (be strong bro!).. The period between 1970 and 1971 with the JBs backing th Soul Brother No.1 changed my musical life.. Thank you for all you've done.. I can picture you soloing next to the Godfather between the clouds..
