BOOTSY  COLLINS

Titled “THA FUNK CAPITOL OF THE WORLD”

It is STILL SEALED. Internet says it is a gatefold cover, limited edition, 1st pressing on BLUE VINYL.

Celebrated American funk bassist, singer and songwriter Bootsy Collins from Cincinnati, Ohio and inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1997 with Parliament-Funkadelic.

Released by Mascot Records, the album features guest performances from Snoop Dogg, George Clinton, Ice Cube, Chuck D, Sheila E, Bobby Womack, George Duke, the Rev Al Sharpton and Samuel L Jackson, and many more. Tha Funk Capital Of The World is Bootsy’s first new studio album of original funk material since 2002’s Play With Bootsy.

The album artwork features a (limited edition) dazzling 3D lenticular sleeve. Rising to prominence playing bass guitar for James Brown in the late 1960’s, and with Parliament Funkadelic in the 1970s, Collins\’ thunderous, infectious bass guitar and humorous vocals established him as one of the leading pioneer in funk. In 1997 Collins, along with 15 other members of Parliament Funkadelic, was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. After spraying outer space bass all over classic recordings by the Godfather of Soul, P-Funk, and his own trail-blazing groups, including Bootsy’s Rubber Band, the Sweat Band and Praxis – Bootsy has arrived at a kind of Zen-like balance that he credits for inspiring his new album. From the opening ‘Hip Hop @ Funk U’ to the closing ‘The Munchies 2011’, ‘Tha Funk Capital of the World’ is a percolating playground of soul-deep rhythms and layered melodies punctuated by lyrics that range from meditations on the nature of truth to the joys of fun-loving hipness to spiritual transcendence. And while Bootsy’s bass is the album’s heartbeat, it’s his voice that brims with giddy delight, goosing up the blissed-out vibe.
