Bootsy's Home Studio

It's not so much of a deep dive, but here is Bootsy Collins talking about a few different topics including his basses and his pedal chains.

One of my favorite segements was him talking about his old live rig - 4x18, 4x15 and 8x10... on each side of the stage.

On the sound guys: "...they were mad at me. Yeah, they were very very angry..." Anyway, I've never really checked out any of his history and I thought this was a solid start, straight from the mouth of the man himself.

 
It's really cool that he let them come in and check out the studio. It's sort of like if I managed to put a studio together, that's what it would be like.

A couple of weeks ago I heard that he was making another album with Buckethead. Long live Bootsy
