Bootsy's Rubber Band: Ahh... The Name Is Bootsy, Baby (Warner Bros. K 56302) *****
John Abbey, Blues & Soul, 1 March 1977
AS WELL as offering a very visual show, Bootsy and the rest of the Rubber Band also turn in a rather strange musical potpourri, too! However, when you realise that George Clinton and the rest of Parliafunkadelicament gang are in there, too, it all becomes a little clearer, right? Musically, there's hardly any direction and this is probably the kind of album that a non-believer in our soul doctrine could throw back at us and use as ammunition against the whole of our music form!
