PS. Just like Bootsy Collins might not come up in a Trailer Park conversation, Kid Rock would never be mentioned in a discussion about the history of Funk.
As a lifelong Rubber Fan and Funkateer I wholeheartedly agree. :) But it could easily be added that Bootsy played bass for James Brown before he was a member of PFunk. George Clinton would even argue that James Brown was one of his influences. :)
Yo J.Short George Johnson and Bootsy were buddies! Again shoutout to Rubber Fans everywhere!
