the lead vocals on both 'Groove Eternal' and 'Dance To The Music' are by Lady Miss Kier (formerly of Deee-Lite)

Here's 2 more for ya'. You said the following:

"This is my last comment on this subject, it's clear that our friends dont' know Prince at all, I've been on Prince's fan list since I first heard him in 76'[...]" {snipped}

That's interesting since his first album didn't come out until 1978.

SWANG said:

NO; not at all. From day 1 I've always thought
Prince copped a ton of his game straight off Bootsy.

His style of dress, expertise and preference in instrumentation, creation and production of music,
overt sexuality, experimentation with electronics
and Hendrixian fixation all stem from Bootsy.

The Boot-man has done it all before!

Bootsy was pre-Prince or
Prince is post-Bootsy!

If you are really hardcore funkateer, then
you know how intrinsic Bootsy was in the creation
and exploitation of PFUNK's glory years.

Let me come out of my sheet so
y'all can see what I'm doing.

Can everyone shut the f*** up blubbering like brats arguing over what is essentially a f*** song that undoubtedly will never change the world, only your f*** blood-pressures. Get rational, hold hands and sing of love and peace. Stop wasting my time with pointless and petty posts...someone has to read them, and I'd prefer it that while skiving from my work, I enjoy constructive critique on the artistic intergrities of Prince and related artists. F*** Bootsy anyway. I've been waiting for him to drag his rusty star-bass over here since 4 or 5 years ago but instead he pimps his commercialised ass the way of Supernatural, Invincible, and Rave Un2'...

Thanks for listenining.

What I'm saying? That Rudedog is a well known individual with a long track record in the Prince webforums since the mid-90's and damnit if he says you're silly for claiming it MUST be Prince when it isn't even credited on the album sleeves... then well he does have a point. Far too often people are starting stupid rumours about this and that involvement and what we are left with? Fricking "69 Positions" every damn week on the thread list. Use your ears.

So all in all, summa summarum, what I'm saying is that sheer namecalling when you don't know who you are dealing with is just ...well, silly.

Anyway, don't get offended too much by this. I might be wrong.

Ummm, I slowed down both "Groove Eternal" and "Dance to the Music" to see if that sped up theory held any ground. When I did that it sounded like a slowed down WOMAN's voice, not Prince's. You do the same thing with the Camille voice or Bob George voice and you can hear Prince. Not the case here cause it's not him!

Try it out yourself and you'll hear with your own ears. It's not Prince. Plain and simple.

haha this thread has turned in2 a silly bitch slap thread

anywhoo, I´ve also listened 2 Groove Eternal, & on lead vox is definitely a woman. But Prince could B on background vox.

still have 2 listen 2 Dance 2 the Music...

rudedog said:

1) Vibrator was NEVER released.

So he still played a woman. Please, tell me you think he was supposed to be a man.

2) The times where Prince "supposely" played a woman, he was never reffered to as either "a woman" or "mama".

Once again, So? Prince never breaks new ground or trys a different angle.

def miss kier!!


prince people grasping at straws once again

Where can I buy this mofo??? I can't seem 2 find it anywhere(CDNOW nor AMAZON) oh yeah, that LINK doesn't work. Help a desperate sistah out ya'll

I don't think Prince has ever dressed like Casper, but if you have some pics to prove it, I'm POSITIVE I'm not the only one interested in seeing them.

And Prince is only as fixated on Hendrix as he is with Sly, James, George, and Miles...quite frankly, I don't think Bootsy is really "fixated" on Jimi. Influenced by him definitely; fixated sounds extreme to me.

Prince's sexuality was far more overt than Bootsy's. This may be, in large part, due to the times altering when Prince came on the scene. But 'Munchies for Your Love' is very different from 'Head' and 'Sister'.






No doubt about that!!! George without Bootsy is like McCartney without Lennon.

In any case, there are a few things I'm sure of:

1) Prince does NOT appear on Bootsy's new album
2) 'Groove Eternal' is the BEST attempt to sound like Prince/Minneapolis I've ever heard from anyone
3) If Prince HAD released this, some of y'all "lost-my-faithers" would shout 'Hallelujah!!!"
4) P-Funkjazz has GREAT taste in funk!!!

PRINCE IS NOT ON BOOTSY'S PLAY WITH BOOTSY album!!!

I took the liberty of emailing Bootsy Collin's OFFICIAL website and asked if Prince was on PLAY WITH BOOTSY album.
Well, guess what? I, as well as Cecy, Joey Coco and many others on this thread were F*CKIN RIGHT! So FACE DOWN YALL M*THERF*CKERS who said it was Prince! The person on those two songs is INDEED NOT PRINCE and named ONE. This email from www.bootsycollins.com confirms it AND it posts a link to the picture of ONE. So FUCK ALL YALLS that tried to start another BULLSHIT RUMOR!!

Here is the email:
---
Rudedog -

Some fanatical Prince fans are spreading the rumor that "One" on Groove Eternal and Dance To The Music is Prince.

Webmaster of Bootsy Collins.com -

I will quash that rumor right now. No, Prince is NOT on the new cd. That
voice heard is in fact, One. One is a musician here in Cincinnati, that
just happens to sound a LOT like Prince.

For anyone in doubt, have them go here:

http://www.bootsycollins....os/one.htm

Keep tha funk alive,

Shon
webmaster, bootsycollins.com

So there it is folks. Even if yall claimed this email is fake, the link works fine and it shows who ONE is.

Rudedog
PIMP SLAPPIN ALL THE PRINCEFAGS ON PRINCE.ORG!!

Damn, Rude...

You got some isshas!!!

MotherLessChild said:

Yeah, well take this

Hehehhehehe

Rudedog

Hey Rude, thanks for going to the source about this, and nipping this in the bud before it got (too) out of hand - I thought it could have been Prince too, and I don't have a problem with being wrong.

Imagine an official site that gives straight answers to questions... that's revolutionary!

booyah said:

Yeah, thanks! Thanks to everyone else that backed me up on this. I think Sexless, I mean Motherless child and a bunch of ppl were trying to start yet another FALSE RUMOR. Either that or they have not one SHITBALL CLUE what Prince sounds like.

Well, thanks to Bootsy for having someone run a GREAT site. Because of it, we don't have to take the word of sexless liars, assless pant-wearing losers and clueless idiots who start false rumors.

Rudedog

CAUSE RUDEDOG'S MAMA SAYS SO!!!

Thanks for going to the source Rudedog. I hate false rumors that get outta hand. Looks like this one has been taken care of.

rudedog said:

Knowing the the princefags around hereru know they gonna say that Prince inspired Bootsy's latest!

i still cannot believe how gullible some folks are...

I don't think it's gullibility, but they just want to attribute everything to him.
After all, he's the greatest entertainer, guitarist, singer, songwriter, dancer, transsexual, multi-instrumentalist, record producer TIMBERWOLVES fan of all time, how could anyone record a record adn notbe influenced by him ?

gigglin @ the sarcasm

feltbluish said:

Now exacly why would that be? Prince and I don't compete and he clearly loves PFUNK as much as I do.
I have no desire to be a musician (but I'd jump at the chance to book a Prince show).

You think I envy his loot? I ain't rich, but
I do quite well on my own. I'm very happy.

Why would I be jealous of princefags?
Except for a few exceptions, their knowledge of
music is extremely limited. What's there to be jealous of?

You clearly have no point to make.
At least not a point that makes any sense.

Prince has Been a Better Songwriter than Bootsy overall but Bootsy did everything on His Instruments&Rocked them.He is Badd both on Bass&Drums.Bootsy got Overshadowed with His Image in Part but once you take away the Image&whatnot you got a Cat that will Bring Tears of Funk Joy too Your Eyes IMHO.the Big Difference IMHO is that Prince stayed Big-Headed on hsi Talents Bootsy Stayed Down&Would Spank Your Ass if you didn't Bring the Grooves.Bootsy has Many Folks Linned up wanting too Play with Him&alot of Folks know He Brings the Pain in THe Studio&on Stage Period.Bootsy is So Overdue for Props it ain't even Funny.when you think about it Bootsy has Been Associated with 3 Happening Careers His,James Brown&George Clinton.not many Acts can make that Claim.

Ludwig see what den started LOL, it's then turned into a straight up brawl...
