Old Graham Central Station, New Bootsy Collins Double LP




The new Bootsy Collins double LP (yellow, psychedelic splatter vinyl!) just arrived and it is very good. No new ground has been broken compared to say "Fresh Outta P University"- the composition, pace and tone are very similar actually. But he has added a group of hot young musicians who definitely have spiked up the level of performance and there is less "inert filler." Well worth it, if only for the beautiful comic book inside.

It got me to thinking about who taught Bootsy to play slap style? It had to be Larry Graham. His playing is extraordinary and it has all the elements of Bootsy's, in a somewhat more restrained, jazzy dimension. G.C. S.'s first 2 LP's are excellent, this one and the eponymous first album.
