Thanks for the post ! The one thing I finally noticed about Booty's style of playing is he's not a "thumber or popper". He just get's in that "pocket" and stays there. Guess when ya got start playing with the "Godfather", ya best be "on the one" and NO place else. "Hallelujah...Glory be to the one who knows what the funk's about." "Glory be the Funk's on me." "You want some ? " 👻Booooo ! 👻
It's good to see Bootsy one of the pioneers of the funk still keeping it funky with the tightest band and the baddest video production it sounds amazing my heart just skip the beat when I saw that real funk it's still alive keep up the good works Starchild and do not attempt to adjust the dial
Bootsy bootsy is undescribable.dey don't do dat. Funk like dat🎉 anymore,.he is keeping it alive,.a legend at heart.,,I love his music he never age dont look aday over ,.50 😂,.an can play dat guitar.,dont miss a beat,.love ya bootsy.,funk forever🤗🦋🍓🍓🍓
Bootsy Collins, brought the funk, the whole funk and nothing but the funk to the Howard Theatre in Washington, DC on January 23, 2015. Needless to say, he funked the joint up in the best way possible, leaving smiling patrons dancing in the aisles.
The Greatest? Really? You ever heard of Motown's James Jamerson, James Brown's Bernard Odum ("Papa's Got A Brand New Bag" and "Cold Sweat" - the very first Funk songs), TOP's Rocco Prestia, Slave's Mark Adams, EWF's Verdine White, TM Stevens, Larry Graham, Bahkiti, Louis "Thunder Thumbs" Johnson? And then along came Jaco... I prefer saying "my favorite" rather than "the greatest" so I don't "diss" all the greats who have just killed it on the bass guitar down through the years. Love me some Bootsy (a great showman) but c'mon, let's keep it real, player...
And I left out "young guns" like Charles Berthoud, Dr Funk, Gev Delano, and Mohini Dey who are just beastly on their axes (see attached samples). ruclips.net/video/76yAo3aHPmM/видео.htmlsi=P-CFVjBcFTDQGSyq ruclips.net/video/HJq-6y2IYEQ/видео.htmlsi=DvSCRXRyUNeDeeer ruclips.net/video/Noc2K5Zk2Cw/видео.htmlsi=4lTOOiFM9gr-LLRu
@@craigj.8539 I would say, Motown's James Jamerson was the standard contemporary bassist but master. However, Bootsy is a space bass psychedelic new-wave. In 2020, Rolling Stone magazine ranked Collins number 4 in its list of the 50 greatest bassists of all time.[3]
@visionworld4426 I don't know what "a space bass psychedelic new wave" means. I thought we were talking about bass players. I'm not impressed by ROLLING STONE's list. GUITAR WORLD ranks the 5 all-time greatest BP as Jamerson, Pastorious, McCartney, Graham, and Clarke (Bootsy comes in at #18), a list I can accept. BASS PLAYER MAGAZINE's top 5 all-time are Pastorious, Entwistle, Miller, Clarke, Jamerson, with Collins coming in at #10. Not sure about the order or how Entwistle rated above Claypool, but, whatever. Lists are very subjective.
THIS VIDEO IS FUNKY ,THE BAND IS TIGHT AS HELL. THE SHOW WAS OFF THE HOOK!! IF YOU'RE A BOOTSY,FAN THIS VIDEO IS FOR YOU. IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME CHECK IT OUT FOR YOUR SELF!!.TAKE IT FROM A TRUE FUNKATEER.
Man!!!!! Damn it sure feels good to see this discipline is alive and well!!! All of the funkateers in my area are dead and gone. I have 20k worth of drum equipment and don’t play anymore much cuz it too much competing and judging instead of playing as one unit like this!!!! Thank BOOTSY!!!
Bootsy Collins, since yesterday, is a mystery to me but ever since i was curious to find out who he is..i hear people talk of him and his link connection to what has been labled as funk soul music..i saw an interview of him talking about his time playing with legend james brown ,who i am very familiar with ..in the interview bootsy was talking about how james brown wanted him to always give him the "one" ...that he told bootsy," it don't matter what you play between.." but to alway give him the "one"...mos def not only do i have a new found knowledge of who bootsy collins is but a new found respect for him as an musical artist performer after that interview i have to say..thats all i wanted to say.. thank you very much for your time meow.

Bootsy and his band funked the hell outta DC that Friday night. I was there and it was one of the best shows I've ever seen. Thanks for posting this beautiful funky video. P Funk lives!!! Funkateer 4life. Long live Bootsy, say what?!!! Bootsy 🎶
Ok ... it's from 2015 Bootsy is the man ... love his spirit, ' is wittyness .... those tributes are cool ... the lady in the camouflage jumpsuit drives me crazy ...
"I give a Funk- yes I do! I need the funk. Especially when the funky Bootsy Rubber Band is in the house! "The Funkateers!" Get funky with your bad self. All the ladies say it- "I give a funk!" Did I mention the funk?
The Pacemakers, The J.B.'s (James Browns backing band) "Nah, not on it son. I didn't hear the one. You didn't give me the one." On a particularly bad night he called us back and said, "Uh huh, now that's what Im talkin about. Ya'll was on it tonight. Ya'll hit the one." My brother and I looked at each other and said, "This mother has got to be crazy!" He was just pushing my to play better. Next: House Guests, Parliament Funkadelic, Praxis (with Buckethead and Bill Laswell), Bootsy's Rubber Band, P-Funk. "Casper the Funky Ghost", "Bootzilla".
🤟🤟🤟🤟.... I rather be with you... What's a telephone bill.... Munchies For your Love....I witnessed the mothership land in the coliseum In 1977.. some of the classic quotes from Bootsy Collins... I wanna funk with you... I've been lovin you for days... When The Playas Play of course I'm a Playa
I been following the Parliaments and Booty's since the inception. Have partied with alot if the original members from Funkadelics to now.Still wiiiiindme up.
Interesting thing here is seeing drummer Frankie “Cash” Waddy (white suit) MCing and not playing drums. He’s been the drummer with the Rubber Band for over 50 years.
This is one of my all-time favorite artists and I just wish you would come to San Antonio Texas!! You can't fake the funk or your nose is bound to grow!!!🤘😎
Bootsy going into the audience and celebrating with the people, no body guards pushing people around, just him, jumping, hunging , kissing people - I've aways like Bootsy
Now is this really recent because i thought he wasn't touring anymore because of his hearing issues but if this is recent i got to definitely look up the dates because ive seen two times before and this is an awesome performance
@standaman1963" Bootsy was forced to quit touring with his band after the doctors discovered cancer around his ear & he needed to have surgery to remove it. Post surgery Bootsy said his days of touring with his band are over, which is unfortunate.

This is the same question I asked a couple of days ago because I read the same thing is why he doesn't tour anymore.
He said in part of one of the songs that this was in 215. I think he does still gig some but does not play bass that much anymore.
