5.0 out of 5 starsNo Funk Collection...
By Honey on December 15, 2003
Format: Audio CD
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!!!!

5.0 out of 5 starsFUNKALICIOUS!!!!
By felinelover on December 3, 2005
Format: Audio CD
I usually don't recommend compliations,but no record collection should be complete without this.

Why?

The last track just may be the most exciting live performance recorded.

5.0 out of 5 starsyab ba dab ba do baby!
By A Customer on September 18, 1999
Format: Audio CD
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.

5.0 out of 5 starsPivotal Funk
By George on November 29, 2015
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
This cd is as cool as it gets filled with the best of Bootsy Collins as the main man of Funk. Songs like Stretchin Out, The Pinocchio Theory, Bootzilla & the 1971 unreleased What So Never The Dance is so damn funky. His bass rhythm is so slick & unusual to say the least, this is what makes him the main man along with George Clinton as Parliament Players & you definitely feel Parliament vibes on this compilation disc along with a signature style of play by his Rubber Band. This cd is well deserving of a 5 star rating.

5.0 out of 5 starsAhhhhh, the name is Bootsy, Baby!
By Kyle Mole on January 8, 2005
Format: Audio CD
When first heard this, I took it back to the shop and asked for my money back, I'm serious! I was into Sly Stone, James Brown, and Funkadelic. My tastes at that time were pretty limited. After a year or so, I was sittin' round at a friends, amidst a plume of yellow smoke, talkin' gibberish, and somebody put this same cd on. Man... We cried laughing! Only then did I start to realize just HOW FAR OUT THERE this cat really is! Casper and all the Hollywood swinging, Pscycoticbumschoolin' grooves jus took me 'out the front door, and in tha back'!

Man!

The space bass is heard to full effect on here. I like the slow jams, like 'Mugpush,' 'Can't stay away,' and 'Vanish in Our Sleep.' His tunes have a hypnotic, nursury rhyme thing goin' on that nobody else could ever conceive, or get away with!

If you wanna get silly serious, get Bootsy!

5.0 out of 5 starsLOVE ME SOME BOOTSY
By Donna Hickson on January 4, 2015
Format: Audio CD Verified Purchase
LOVE ME SOME BOOTSY!! The music sounds just as I remember. My two favorite riding songs: "The Name is Bootsy" and "Body Slam." I'm wearing those two songs out! Funk is by far, the BEST secular genre of music there is. Those guitars, horns, keyboards, background vocals, that "eco-plex," and those soul claps make you FEEL SOMETHIN'! So glad I bought it.

5.0 out of 5 starsBounce and Bop
By Mike Stone on July 7, 2000
Format: Audio CD
A mega-funky stew of swanky guitars, laid back drumbeats, profoundly beautiful and melodic vocal choirs, loopy synth lines, and the chunkiest bottomful of bass these ears have ever heard.
Bootsy's work with James Brown and George Clinton shows that he is a reliable and competent team player, ready to add to the mix just the ingredient it needs. Well, here is the ringleader, the showman at centre stage. And the show is wonderful! When I lie in bed dreaming of the possibilities of what funk could be, this is it! A serious collection of meditative grooves and party jams... Bootsy really delivers.
When the main monster riff of "What So Never The Dance" crashes through the speakers, I step back in awe, and then I just start stepping.

5.0 out of 5 starsBootzilla releases the funk!
By Yvonne on October 7, 2013
Format: MP3 Music Verified Purchase
This is indeed going back to the days when I was a kid and I could dance like no one was watching, no matter who was in the room with me. This is just fun. It doesn't have to mean anything, it was just there to provide a backbeat for you to dance to. Bootsy Collins is a very talented musician, compose, and performer and it shows in his music.

Bootsy, we miss you, Man. Come back to us and release the funk!
