Happy birthday to Bootsy Collins, born October 26, 1951.
After working with James Brown as a teen in the late 1960s, William Earl “Bootsy”Collins became known as a leader in the Parliament-Funkadelic family in the ’70s.
A bass guitarist supreme who always keeps a sense of humor in his work, he is a living legend whose nickname alone raises smiles around the world. Happy birthday, Bootsy!
