He Does Exist
After initially disputing Tony's claim, I discovered tonight that there really is a singer named Bootsy Collins.

Much has been written about the pivotal contributions of William "Bootsy Collins" to James Brown's JB's and George Clinton's P-Funk legacy. As a young bassist in 1970, Bootsy helped redefine Brown's music and as a composer/arranger/musician he played one role after another on the majority of Clinton's most memorable records. But this story -the story Of Bootsy's Rubber Band turns the tables, for it's James Brown (unwittingly) and George Clinton (calculatingly) who play the supporting roles.
Bootsy's Rubber Band combined imaginative song construction, landmark horn arrangements and vocals that straddled the line between personably soulful and -tongue-in-cheek. The resulting musical sophistication deceptively belied the 70's funk Genre -not to mention the band's marketing campaigns that were inexplicably limited toward the youngest of Funkateers
Roving anonymous Bootsy Collins experts are the best!
Clearly this individual had done their research and was just waiting for someone to bring Bootsy up. We are all now richer for the experience.
