Nope.

Bigfoot, The Wizard Of Woo, and Mudbone.. but no Zilla.

But here's a cut I dig from that CD.

Funkadelic Groupie

.."WOO!"

*Bonus*

"Bass" and 'Bone ─ I Wanna Know If It's Good To You ?

:horn: less the rap.

One of my favorite Black Arc/Laswell joints. Some of the lyrics are kinda corny but the musicmanship is killer.

Never cared for it as a whole, but it had its moments

No Bootsy at all. You probably think you are hearing Bootsy because of Gary "Mudbone" Cooper who supplied the background vocals on Bootsy's Rubber Band records.

It's the rap part that's bothersome, but it perfectly captures the OG Funkadelic grooves of Billy "Bass" Nelson.

I try to ignore it too Graycap23. The "raps" seem to dilute the CD. Billy Bass seemed to create the "guitar heavy 90's Funkadelic" CD that George kept promising everyone since 1990.
