Here's a 'live' version from Soul Train which opens with the bass man playing the riff with a pick. Faster than the original but the suits & dancing are worth a look, lol:[/quote]
I always loved that opening; one of the few numbers where I might use a pick. :)

thought I'd post this as I'm playing this choon to death at the moment (well it sounds like I'm killing it :rolleyes: )

...but I'm not sure the slap part in the middle is correct....my technique seems a little tame by Mr J's stds's..maybe I should get a baseball bat on them strings :)

I love Bootsy Baby,

I have this album on rotation in the car :)

Loads of great songs on it & some wicked Bootsy funk.

As Bootsy says:

[i]"Everything good is nasty,
You don't miss your P until the U S S Y is gone,

The thigh is the limit baby
Don't shoot until you see the fat of the thigh

I am the freak,
Freak of the week

Hey Bootsy hit us with that bass
I'm funkalicious baby. . ."[/i]
