Morning,
Anyone else catch the rock'n roll special on PBS on Saturday?  It was 
titled "Make it Funky".   I know a bunch of people record shoping in 
Berkeley :) did.  It featured James Brown (n' Bootsy), Sly (n' Bootsy), 
Bootsy, Parliment(n' Bootsy), and on and on.  I dig Bootsy.  I'm fairly 
new to the list, but I haven't heard much tribute paid to the originals 
like James.  If you haven't listened to much JB before, check out the 
intro to "The Payback".  I've heard that sliding/wah-wah cord quite a few 
times in my current play list.  If you're interested in a quick and dirty 
intro to some great funky music, try James Brown 70's Funk Classics on 
Polygram special markets/ excelsior.  I found it in a bargin bin for a 
couple of bucks.  He had the tightest band I've heard.
