The title track is one wacky but mellow jam, with everything from a heavy metal version of "Auld Lang Syne" to a voice that sounds like Elmo before Sesame Street. The story behind my purchase of this album (in the late '80s I believe) is I looked at that cover, with all the stars, the adoring fans, the misspellings of "Bootsy," and thought This Bootsy guy must have a hell of an ego. But there's definitely a sense of humor here. And, yeah, this is ultra-funk, from the George Clinton production on out.
