- No Funk Collection...

Is complete without Bootzilla in it... I grew up on Bootsy and the birth of true funk...slept with it under my pillow and woke up with it between my toes and on my breath... This is a bad collection of funkology! How many could have pulled off a funk filled slow jam such as "I'd Rather Be With You?" That has to be one of the baddest jams ever!!!!

- yab ba dab ba do baby!

this genius rocks and flames backwards and forewards on this gem.the man has been wicked since he was 18 starting out with James Brown's band and then on to parliament. and the amazing thing along with concepts and many ideas this man is a badd multi-instrumentalist not only wicked on bass but on guitar,boards,and drums.also he gave babyface his stage name.he has showed so much funk&fun in his music and this set show cases the brillance of his grooves.he never faked the funk and his nose stayed in tacted.

- A Really Great Kick A** CD from the BootsBasemaster!!!

Bootsy Collins really lets us have it, and every track is brilliant, I think his silliness really adds to the absurdity and humor of some songs esp. Bootzilla, Mug Push. The punch out track is the final one. Awesome and influential CD...Buy it Funk Fans.

- This Album Is So FUNKY!!!!!

I am an 18 year old Australian funkateer and I collect a lot of disco and funk albums of the 1970's and early 1980's, and I like to say I dig the cool funky music from this album. Bootsy is so FUNKY!!!

My number one favourite from this album is "Psychoticbumpschool (Live) 1976" because it is so funky. I really dig the funky bass and the hard rock in that song because it really makes me dance and bop my head to the hard funk at the same time. All I can really say about that song is that it is really cool and it KICKS ARSE! Some of my other favourites from this album are "The Pinocchio Theory 1977", "Bootzilla 1978" and "Stretchin' Out (In A Rubber Band) 1976".

So if any of you who like funky music buy this album I'm pretty sure you are going to dig "Psychoticbumpschool (Live)" as well as his other cool funky jams from this album.

- Some monster jams, a little filler

This cd contains some truly epic tunes (What So Never The Dance, Body Slam, Hollywood Squares), but also has a couple of sleepers. Of course, Maceo's shout-out for Bootsy on "Ahhh ... the Name is Bootsy Baby" should give you goosebumps, especially if you are one of the lucky to have caught Bootsy live. All in all a fine funk album, but probably wouldn't make it onto the desert island before Mothership Connection of Let's Take It To the Stage (no good no. 10 .... let's take it to the stage!!!!!)
