{"product_id":"tha-funk-capital-of-the-world","title":"Tha Funk Capital of the World","description":"Thinking big, Bootsy Collins' 2011 effort is a conceptual trip, a funky history lesson brought to life by the P-Funk veteran, his rock-solid band, and a slew of guest stars, ranging from rapper Ice Cube to professor Cornel West. In between, there's funk-rock shredding from freaky and frequent collaborator Buckethead, some psychedelic storytelling by way of an old Jimi Hendrix interview, plus better-than-expected prose from both Rev. Al Sharpton (on the cultural magnificence of James Brown) and Samuel L. Jackson (on how the funk era was a Renaissance for the hood). Underneath it all, the P-Funk jams pop and stroll with that same old swagger, while Bootsy himself beams down his wild bits of Mothership wisdom, including \"It's recess time, so put a smile on your mind\" (\"Don't Take My Funk\") and \"If you wanna lead the orchestra, you're gonna have to turn your back to the crowd\" (\"Siento Bombo\"). The album is a bit too fat to be considered classic, but there's a casual charm to this free-flowing, reminiscence party which could have just as easily been an elaborate mess. A tribute to the late P-Funk guitarist Garry Shider and an appearance from Bootsy's older brother Catfish Collins -- who died before the album saw release -- add poignancy to this rich and funky success. ~ David Jeffries","brand":"MovieMars","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45432186208543,"sku":"8712725731023","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/7833\/0399\/files\/4de2760171ca1ff6715a13b25a67d996.jpg?v=1778495834","url":"https:\/\/www.moviemars.com\/products\/tha-funk-capital-of-the-world","provider":"MovieMars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
