Der Bassist, Sänger und Songschreiber Bootsy Collins ist eine der wichtigsten Figuren in der Welt der Funk-Musik. 1997 wurde Bootsy Collins gemeinsam mit den übrigen Mitgliedern von Parliament und Funkadelic in die The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame aufgenommen. Für die Aufnahmen seines 1988er Albums "What's Bootsy Doin'?" arbeite Bootsy Collins wieder mit seinen alten P-Funk Kumpels George Clinton, Bernie Worrall, Fred Wesley und Gary 'Mudbone' Cooper zusammen. Das Booklet beinhaltet neue Linernotes von Malcolm Dome.

Bootsy Collins. As a bassist, singer and songwriter, he has long since passed into legend. A man who made his name by performing with the indomitable JamesBrown in the early 1970s, before becoming part of the immortal Parliament and Funkadelic later the same decade. He’s a rock star in every sense. His sense of humour and driving way of playing was matched by a flamboyant sense of dress.

His 1988 What sBootsy Doin ? album saw him back in the groove with old P-Funk buddies George Clinton, Bernie Worrall, Fred Wesley and Gary 'Mudbone' Cooper. After a recording absence of six years, Collins slips right into gear, working with a huge ensemble that of course featured some of his own alter egos. It appeared that little had changed for the man, In that everything that had happened in the funk world while he'd been in semiretirement was ignored, as Collins set out to prove his weird approach to mixing funk, rock and pop was still as potent as ever.

The bizarre clash of styles that had made Collins such a style icon in the previous decade is still obvious, and at its best 'What’s Bootsy Doin'?' is just glorious, Check out 'Party On Plastic' and 'Love Song' this is where the man scores highly and often, never standing still long enough for you to second guess him.
