Bootsy smashin on the bass,hittin it like a fuckin sledgehammer,peal its ears back and squeal motherfucker squeal,cause if you dont im commin on yo face,and lightin you up.Bootsy you cool motherfucker with your subject matter,id be gettin some Japanese love for fuckin sure,me fuck you long time.
bootsy thats whats up my homeboy from cincy ohio ya digover 30 years later this song is still popping like corn . o yea who would have ever thought that bootsy was james brown bass player then bootsy was too big , so he went solo and hooked up with aprliament funkadelic the rest is history peace my homeboy bootsy collins cincinatti ohio
the was just funky stinky nasty........it just makes me quiver that solo was that good. I gotta spray some air freshner just to clear the room..........holeeee snikeees
bootsy is the hottest shit but when we say bootsy we must include parliament funkadelic which bootsy was also a contributing writer and musician for the most famous funk band ever pfunk/bootsy long live
he also played for james brown james got rid of bootsy because he started to experament with drugs and james wanted no parts of that back then lucky for us funkateers
lol...no matter how big they get they still give James his due! Bootsy, MC Hammer and Michael Jackson! Even elvis stole the showmanship of a great entertainer!
WHEN does he learn to use a delay properly, when will he ever figure out how to fix the volumelevels of his effects ... in every show the same bullshit. but he plays nice.
im wrong he aint in tokyo but this rocks just the same/theres like tewnty members of his band when he plays live .he used to play bass for james brown
What were the audience members doing holding up their hands with those satanic finger signs?!! This isn't your typical rock crap. This is LOVE making music, idiots!!!
Dude, is this a serious question??? Do you not know anything about P-Funk??

No they haven't. And not ONE person on the stage of this performance did it either. Also, I have been following Bootsy, Parliament, Funkadelic for years. Not one performance I have in my collection shows any band memeber making Satanic signs. That stuff came about with the rock crowd.
Nobody else speaks to me like you do through your music daddy Boots~
