I have been a fan since 'Chocolate City' (even though my parents would not let me buy the album). I managed to get my friend to buy 1977's 'Parliament Live' so I had that (still do!). As a bass player myself, I loved Bootsy Collins work.

I have seen the landing of The Holy Mothership!

So, shit, goddamn, get off your ass and JAM!

Saw him(them) "long long ago" at various venues, including a warehouse. Old dawgs, new trix.

A repost:



cause "funk is its own reward."
