We'd like to humbly congratulate Dr William Earl Collins on his 74th birthday. Dr Collins achieved universally acclaimed appreciation over his profound research of the often belittled First Beat during the 70s highlighting his career in the second half of the decade then continuing his assiduous...

Sorry Folks, just found out that Brother Spyder X had brought up this by another name in May. But whatta hell, this is some cool stuff.

Hi fellas, here's Bootsie on drugs, sex, rock'n'roll and, of course, on The One.

I was casually listening to a Stevie Wonder compilation and bumped into You Met Your Match; a great song and a great bassline. I am so much a Michael Henderson fanboy that I thought hearing a Hendersonian vibe in that line, though internet wiseguys declared the player to be James Jamerson. I...

I'm glad you're having a party that doesn't stop.

Or genie. After a longish session (over 10 minutes) with Radiohead I went back to P-Funk, to the Bomb. Folks appreciate different features in Bootsie, his funny hats, his sunglasses, his star-shaped basses, his vast amount of gorgeous effects, his silly-serious songs, his jovial character etc...

Because we forgot Baby Baba's 71st birthday on the 26th of October. So Happy Birthday, Bootsie. Let the warm vibes radiate forever.

Here Mr Errol Holt chats in fluent patois about big Roots Radics riddims (also demonstrating them) and vividly describing the origin some of the famous tunes and the lively atmosphere in the reggae studios.

The day has already turned into 26th on my side of the globe, so I am able to congrat the most notorious intergalactic bass man, my man Bootsie for his 70th birthday. He has given so many good vibes to us loyal funkateers with his rubbery bass lines, his sillyserious lyrics and his warm...

In early 70s I had a couple of Gary Bartz albums and I liked a lot of the drummer Howard King and the bass player Stafford James, who is better known on DB, but he was quite impressive on EB, too, as this clip shows.

You've always got so much Space around your Bass making you the Starr-mon. May these vibes carry on with you for years and years to go.

I was checking Meshell Ndegeocello clips and got fed up her rather monotonous vocals on her indie kinda songs (solely my stupid opinion). Her bass playing is quite ok. So I needed something uplifting and remembered Tashan from the early 90s and the bassist Randy Hope-Talor who must be one of...

Great tone, great playing but less could have been more efficient. Okay Michael was only 18 years old then. And after all he got his punishment when having to play 20 min single note ostinatos with the man above criticism, Miles Davis. But as we know after doing his time, he created some...

Just the other day when listening Bootsy Baby, it occurred on my mind that Bootsy being the best space bass player ever, so how come there are no well-known copycats around? I think flamboyant if somewhat one-trick-pony Larry Graham has some followers as well as that little white guy Flea has...
