Happy Birthday Bootsy

This is my first thread, so I hope someone didn't already do this. Bootsy is 55 today, it was in the birthdays section of the Boston Globe (that's how I know) He is really a great bassist.

It's hard to believe he is 55. Then again, I have a fantastic recording of him playing with James Brown when he was only 18, and that was from the late 60s, IIRC.

He takes it to another level in that performance. Roto-rooter and Another point of view are 2 of my favorite songs since I was 15, I'm nearing 30 now.
