I saw Bootsy last weekend in Cincinnati backstage at the Black Music Walk of Fame Inductees Grand Openning July 22, 2023. James Brown's Daughter brought Bootsy and his wife Pat to the stage as she accepted her father's inductee award. LA Reid of The Deele also gave Bootsy and Midnight Star their props for paving the way and giving The Deele their start to stardom. It was an awesome even and the Ohio Players put on a show that closed the event. Cincinnati loves Bootsy Collins and all its contributors to the music History. If you are ever in Cincinnati Ohio you have check out The Black Music Walk of Fame. By the way this young lady is "Cold Blooded" on the "Funky Bass"!!!

Julia has got to hold the title of Funkiest Central European. Silver pants, yo. Feel it.

You're an Outstanding Bassist. I've played Bass for over 40 years and I send Huge Kudos! 👍👍

What I love about your playing is that you look like you're having fun instead of trying to impress people.

It’s impossible to play Bootsy lines without dancing. Good job, Julia.

That Star bass is EVERYTHING !!!

Julia is feelin the funk. Awesome. I'm a metalhead that loves funk,especially James Brown. I mostly played thrash or death metal for years and didnt want to play anything else. When I approached funk as a bass player I thought I'd just have some fun and learn some licks. I didnt realise then how much I would learn and eventually have a totally different approach to the bass. Playing technical metal is great and challenging,but funk really taught me how to step into the traditioal role as part of the rhythm section. Instead of playing at warp speed with the guitars you have a much larger role. Instead of complimenting the guitars you are often the driving force of the song. This concept wasnt new to me butI didnt have any clue about musical space or sitiing in the pocket(or even what the pocket was). I had to realise that less is more and stop myself from trying to fill all musical space with notes. There are situations where the best thing for the song is thumping on roots and fifths and being part of that rhythm section.

Who is this amazing woman playing some funky bass and loving every moment of it?? Her love for the music is infectious. This made me so happy - thank you!

Thanx for Bootsy, Julia!🤩

Julia's energy is always the cherry on top with these videos. 😁

It was about time to give Bootzy some credit! 👍

The James Brown & Bootsy Collins Tales From the Tour Bus season was so awesome. It tells the tale of how JB taught Bootsy of the concept of 'the 1', as you mentioned. After the band departed from JB, Bootsy took the knowledge and concept of 'the 1' and passed it onto to George Clinton. I just love how the knowledge was passed down from one iconic great to another by way of the great Bootsy Collins, an icon in his own right.

"I'd Rather Be With You" is one of Booty's funkiest and most catchy songs. The bass has such a nasty tone too.

Julia with the classic "bass-face"

I got to hangout with Gary, Parliament Funkadelic guitar player, back in the late 80's at a friend's place in Atlanta. We got to watch the David Letterman interview with Bootsy the afternoon before the show aired later that night. It was a funky day! ✌️😎🎸

Always really impressed with Bootsy’s ability to sing and play! Julia killed it - all the nuance is where the funk lives!!

If you watch any Julia's video and don't fall in love with her after 34 seconds, there is something really wrong with you. Extremelly talented, fun and stunning lady!

That bass screams late 60s and 70s. I love how it looks, and yet, oddly enough, I dont know that I would ever want to own a bass that looked like that - but I love it all the same.

Julia, you dun did it again. Go on, girl!

My favourite Bootsy bassline is definitely I'd Rather Be With You.

The funk is real with this one!

You gotta hear Munchies For Your Love..the ending of how he rode that bassline was sick

Julia's in the groove again. My favorite Bootsy bass line is in the song "I'd Rather Be with You" and James Brown's (Get on the) Good Foot.

Beauty and she has the funk. It doesn't get better than that.

Stretching Out is my favorite Bootsy bass line. It is Bootsy’s Rubber Band that inspired me to want to play bass

You absolutely crush the James Brown basslines. The steps on Superbad bowled me over!!!

The 4 different basslines in Uncle Jam. A complete funk workout!

Hard to sit or stand still when you’re playing funk, and even harder not to smile or ‘bass face’ when you’re in that pocket. Well done!

Digging everything in this video. Especially the 70's pants.

What amazes me about this guy’s playing is his sheer strength and the ability to never drop the beat....Great video...

That "bass face" is worth the price of admission alone!..

I saw Bootsy's Rubber Band in the mid 90's when I lived in San Francisco. I was then and I still am now in complete awe of that man's bass playing. He has such a great feel for Funk. Just simply amazing to watch him live.

Julia has been VERY WELL educated over the years!😉👍

As a funkateer I love them all ! 💜 BOOTSY baby !!! 🛸🛸🛸

So I was born and raised in Cincinnati, Bootsy's hometown. And if you go to enough shows around here, you just see him around. I have two Bootsy stories. When I was in high school, I saw Public Enemy. Randomly in the middle of the show, Flav yells "Yo Bootsy get out here." Bootsy walks on stage, picks up a guitar and Flav gets on the drums and they jammed for a few minutes. A few years later, I saw Freekbass live. Before the show started, me and my friend saw Bootsy walk in the venue surrounded by a bunch of photographers. You can see him coming from a mile away because he is super super tall. Anyway, he started coming directly toward me and my friend. He was being super cool saying hi to everyone shaking hands. He comes up to me and my friend, stops and looks down at us. Right at this moment a photographer got literally right in front of my face! Bootsy shakes my friends hand, and my friend says "Hey what's up man." I peek around the photographer and look at Bootsy. He looks down at me for a second confused and then just keeps walking. 😂 Anyway, he's definitely a musical hero. P-Funk for life.

The bass face! Love it!

Those pants are incredible. Great choice for a Bootsy Collins video.

When he and Catfish joined the original JB band, he didn't even have a bass. He had a guitar that had bass strings on it. James Brown offered to get him a proper bass, and he accepted.

I had no idea that superstar bass was a Warwick .. Hell yah !!!!

I was mostly into rock / metal . But I like this type of music. I think this is one of the main reasons to get into bass . Just to listen and play along to Bootsy and James Brown etc. Funk and bass were made to go together

But this overview also sells Bootsy kinda short. Beyond funk (enough said), he has also covered ambient, metal, experimental, etc. He is probably has the greatest reach of any bass player bar none. Check out Praxis, Zillatron, or the other stuff he's done with Buckethead. He is legend.

I'd rather be with you is another classic bass line

I was just a kid in the 70's, but I mis them. Music was sooooooo much better than today. All of it. Funk, smooth r&b, country and classic rock. I started listening to my own music then.

Not only is Julia super dope at the bass, but for some reason her voice/accent is so pleasant to listen to. Julia you should do more voice things

Gr8 stuff Julia .. Nice moves lol .. When I was young guitar player Like bootsie I had to swap to Bass as my older Brother was Singer & guitar player . I found in a Library ' sale of damaged books' a copy of How to be A Bass Player by Bootsie Collins .. Some one had stolen the Music pages & left the Pictures & the words of advice from Bootsie .. There were three main rules (?) a ) Practice is for the Bedroom Not the Stage . Never try to play something new until you are 100% sure you can do it . b ) if you do make a mistake smile & play it again with confidence like you meant to do it . c ) Never let the Band down .. They are counting on you to hit that ONE . .. He also advised the importance of always dressing & acting like a confident person no matter how nervous you are act cool . Don't talk to much . & Practice all the time .. Practice in front of a mirror as if there was an audience .. By the way I think you got it right .. the slide up into the ONE etc little grace notes & spaces just B4 the ONE .. I have always remembered these tips . Love you all at Thomann Peace & a happy summer to come that's what I wish for you all . Bye

Dag! I never got pass song #1. That's the best Bootsy I have ever heard. Notable she mentioned CatFish. I can hear CatFish hitting licks all on top of Bootsy heads for Funk'n with his guitar when he wasn't at home in them strings Gurl!! Man, it's all in the NECK and I'm not talking Frets! Neck Bone Connected to the Knee Bone. Funk Anatomy 101!! ☝️🤘🏾☝️

I keep returning to this video over and over again after 2 years. This star bass bass together with Julia is a great combo ! Love it ♥

The funk is about that feeling and she has it. Fav bass lines Bootsy get live, Party on Plastic.

I like Bootsy’s bass line on Johnny Taylor’s hit ‘Disco Lady’. Bootsy even does a little ‘slap bass’ on this track. Pure genius!

She is so groooovy!!!! Ooooh Yeah!!!! I love it!

Fav episode because of her moves and smile while she is playing 'super bad' 😃

Didn't expect "Another point of view." Good choice!

Always loved Hollywood squares , had it as a single .

James Williams bassline on Ain’t No Stopping Us Now is a fabulous funky line. 😎🎸

They are all brilliant! Good bass playing there!

My favourite Bootsy bass line is on "J.R. (Just Right)" from Blasters of the Universe (1994). It goes perfect with my favourite Bernie Worrell keyboard riff.
