Ahh...The Name Is Bootsy, Baby!

Anchored by Bootsy Collins' distinctive, heavily effected bass playing and cartoonish theatrical persona, this project exemplifies the joyous, psychedelic excess of the wider P-Funk collective. The album masterfully balances deep, relentlessly syncopated funk workouts with lush, deliberately humorous smooth soul ballads. It successfully solidified Collins not just as a legendary sideman, but as a premier, charismatic frontman in his own right.
