Liza Grossman is an absolute treasure. She has a permanent invite to the cookout!
So much to love from this video: the pizzicato at the beginning, the kids absolutely smashing the vocal bridge, the shot of the background singers’ silhouettes during the “Wind Me Up”chorus, Bootsy’s wardrobe, and the audience “soul section” stage right!
Thanks Liza! Long live the funk!
I'll bring some mix tapes. LMK when and where.
I agree!!!
Cleveland Ohio Representing!!!
Yep! PERMANENT INVITE TO SAN DIEGO!
Break it down!
Someone gave bootsy his own orchestra and im just mad they didn't do it sooner
Agreed!
Ohhhhh Fo Shoooooo
Lmao the little girl in the middle winding up with hands and then pulling the string! She definitely is a funkateer for life
Another generation has been blessed with the FUNK. The Earth is in good hands.
Bootsy and an orchestra with the kids singing background...what is better than that??!! 😍😍😍
The little girl in the front row of the balcony parents definitely grew up with George Clinton and P Funk and I love it
She really rocking the shades!!! Janis Joplin's twin!
Yyyeeessss
The one front on the far right? Oh man. Either her parents or grandparents had raised her on Bootzilla.
Word!!
Bootsy's Orchestra....it dosen't get any better.
Listen to the kids singing...🎶🎶🤘🎶🎶😉

As a musician myself 4:24 I just wish the drummer would hit them snares like the recording but overall the Orchestra is very impressive

Me too!!
Touches my heart, too!
Conductor Grossman ROCKED those kids!
PURE GENIUS!

This was great. The "Boot" has grown from just being a musician to being an ambassador for music and an advocate for youth...Well done Mr. Collins !!!
One of the greatest music teachers loves the kids
T H A T R I G H T!! 7 31 21.
As an musician of the funk Days Yes Yes keep music Alive Please support the Arts our youth in school bands need this Much love Great job.Drummer N.C.
A true testament to giving our youths positive direction. Bootsy Collins should be commended for his inclusiveness to music and the Funk.
One of the most incredible things I've ever seem...😀
Never would have thought these last couple of GENERATIONS would even hear the music 🎼🎶 from my P--FUNK era outstanding on many levels 4realtho!!!💯
I grew up on the Funk in the 70's , these children dont know how lucky they are, I cant imagine what I would have been thinking as a child playing with Bootsy.
they knew. I made sure. The Mothership connection was there.
@@lizagrossmanmusic 👌🏾🤩
The world would be a better place, with people, teaching our kids to love, everybody. Bootys is a living legend. You could feel the love in that room.
👍😃👍WRIGHT WRIGHT BOOTSY IS A LIVING LEGEND!!!! "THA G.O.A.T."
Black and White young and old getting down together?? Let the young ones be the example! Show em Mr. Collins!!
Ain't nobody gonna say anything bout them violin players rockin their heads and the little girl in the front with the headband and the sunglasses rockin
Music brings people together like nothing else. Everything about this video is beautiful!
Baby girl and violin 🎻 section just landed and invaded the atmosphere with funk mob 😂
@@elohgenesis875 true facts also that little girl looks like shes been to a few funk concerts
saw that, that string section was head boppin' and rockin' to da funk!
I was actually 10 years old when this song came out in the 70s. These kids are so fortunate to perform with him!!🤩🎸 #PFunk
Amen.💯💯💯
🤗🤗‼️‼️
Me too!! Definitely!
I was 4! Why did I just play this the other day out the blue 💙 and today I find this🤩🔥🔥
I’ve seen some amazing things in my life and this just made the list. Arts in schools is it’s own reward! Funkateers will get that reference!
Watching the violas and cellos hit the "one" hard is a beautiful thing
THIS IS THE FUTURE OF THE FUNK. Right here. These kids, I hope they understand what learning from this man means.
I hope so too. First lesson, find "the one".
The little Hispanic girl wearing the glasses was winding it up and pulling the strings as the lyrics point out. You go girl !!!
Kudos to the Conductor. She said" I'm not getting in the podium unless I have the Real Funk". The P-Funk, UnCut Funk! Da Bomb! Before I take it Home!".
make MY funk the P-Funk. It was all uncut. Thanks for the funky recognition of my work!
This comment right here made my day!!! Excellent job Liza!
@@lizagrossmanmusic Thank you , for sharing Your Gift with us and Keeping the Funk alive , with the next generation .
I'm so glad Bootsy visited Earth to share this with us. Such amazing talent all of them.
Juz the other day (eye) posted on an aliens👽 post calling dibbs on riding shotgun on the mothership wind me up baby bubba 4realtho!!!💯
You got that right lol
That was some real FUNK...FUNK... from the Master of P-Funk himself!
Well......it’s not the first time his music’s brought tears to my eyes.....but dang....
Those kids were absolutely amazing.👏👏👏👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Hats off, to all the little people!
The orchestra and the kids in the choir were really getting into that Bootzilla song. Even the audience was into it.
👍😃👍 Yes they was, all into it!!!!
Bootzilla, still looks and sounds "GREAT"!!!! Bootzilla, keep on keeping on!!! 👍😃👍WIND ME UP!!!!
I concur with everyone here. This video has brought "tears to my face," because these children are experiencing a staple of African American music with the innovator and genious of funk; and because Bootsy was a part of my youth. He sounds as awesome now as he did in the '70s. As the kids say he is the "OG". Reign on Bootzilla!!!
Hoping that these kids in 15 years are playing instruments and making music of all genres, not just rapping.
I grew up with Bootsy, Parliament Funkadelic, Earth Wind and Fire, Kool and the Gang, Mandrill etc., playing in bands in the 70s playing at block parties cabarets. School orchestras back then played popular music. Had to endure the lean 80s and 90s. Bootsy is one of the survivors, he sounds good and is giving back. These children are getting the chance to play Bernie Worrell's synth lines. That's cool.
Big Ups to Bootsy for giving his time and energy to the children, I just raised him up a little higher on my Legend ladder. What a meaningful way to introduce children to the FUNK., I can only hope that they were able to go to sleep that night, cause once you've been exposed to the Funk, you have to have more and more. It is an addiction.
👍😃👍 YES YES YES!!!!
Great job
I thought about that too! Like how did the kids wind down on the way home? Did they go out and celebrate? Do they even realize how important that was?! One day they will!
You gotta Love William Bootsy Collins! He's Funken for Future Funkateers! 1love
Just beautiful! All colors, shades, and genders! Groovin' and Funkin' it up!
I don't know who I'm more excited for, the kids, Bootsy or myself for seeing this. I just love the 70's FUNK!!!
👍😃👍Me too, me too!! I tell my kids "OLD SCHOOL IS THE BEST SCHOOL"!!!!
Real talk..im smiling like I'm there.
ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL...THESE CHILDREN ARE BEING EXPOSED TO THE ESSENCE OF SOME "REAL MUSIC" BEING PLAYED WITH REAL INSTRUMENTS...I TRULY LIKE THE ORCHESTRA EFFECT WITH THE STRINGS BEING UTILIZED....WAY TO GO MR. COLLINS AND GOOD JOB KIDS...
Full orchestra FUNK!!!
Bootzilla!!!!!!!!
This brotha hasn't missed a beat . Still crisp after all these years. Those kids Having a start in the world learning about the Funk .......they're miles ahead of the game
👍😃👍 Bootzilla, is still performing like a young man!!!! "U GO BOOTZILLA KEEP TEACHING THOSE YOUNG BUCKS"!!!!
Spectacular. That space bass hasn't lost any steam! Bootsy still rules.
In 1978, when I was 10 years old, I heard this song when it was released, and it turned me into a Funkateer for life. I am SO happy to see these kids around the same age playing this song!!! ALONG WITH BOOTSY HIMSELF!!!??? WHAAAAAAT!!!!?!?! SO COOL!!! SO LUCKY!!!
On point
This is AMAZING on SO MANY LEVELS!!!🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
man, this put a big smile on my face - big up bootsy and all the brilliant kids!
Bootsy is a genious! I love this!
The adults don't understand how amazing this is momma would be standing up dancing
This is soooooooooo incredible. The sound is amazing and awesome.
This is Awesome for all of those young people performing with Bootsy . Wow this is a Masterpiece
I’m from Cleveland and I was a teen when Bootsy put this smash hit out in the late 70’s. It would have been cool to saw him at severance hall (which is just up the road from where i grew up) or perform with him there. Those kids are fortunate to have been able to hang with him. I saw him live out here in the dmv in 1992 and 1993 when Parliament-Funkadelic performed at DAR Constitution Hall.
Extremely lucky kids!!
This video needs way more hits. C’mon people! Let’s get it done!
Music is the universal language. Kids want to do right, it's a shame that we teach them hatred,bigotry and all of our short comings. God bless those kids, let them grow.
The LEGENDARY Iconic Bootsy Collins

Liza Grossman and Bootsy are to Be Commended as I've watched this almost a hundred times Fascinated by the different reactions of the Kids Orchestra and the Baby Background singers of all Races, Notably for Me ( Mrs Grossman looking up at Bootsy's Singer Saying the ( Don't Let That Little Girl Cry Part ) at the 8 second mark ).. (The Young Man/ Violinists to the right/back of Bootsy and him Smiling at the 24 second mark coming out of the intro ) like a Kid Opening his presents on Christmas Morning.. (The Young Lady Violinist to the left of Bootsy - 1st Row Jammin on her break at the 1:04 Mark ).. (The Baby Girl Funkateer with the Sunglasses on in the 1st Row Balcony ).. And ( The Other Girl Funkateer in the 3rd Row just to the right of her with the Greenish Blue ribbon/ tie Really Doin Her FunkyThang ), On and On, All Genuinely Enjoying Playing this Funky Music including Mrs Grossman.. And So well put together from the Harpist playing the intro in place of the Original lead guitar, Another Bass Player with Bootsy and more tastefully / Creatively done additions.. I mean every Orchestra instrument is incorporated perfectly as if it were in the original Cut Or even a Better Version of it.. Masterfully, Creatively and Funkfully done Mrs Grossman, Bootsy and Fabulous Kids 👍 👍 👍!!!
That’s Absolutely The Coolest Version I’ve Ever Witnessed …. What A Great Lesson In The Funkadelic Sound for all who performed…. Now That’s Music
This is amazing, full orchestra!! and the children,never seen anything like it,!!!
Bootsy has them all on the one! The funk is alive and stankin' like old hot dog water!
Funk is it’s own reward 🤜🏾🤜🏾🤜🏾🤜🏾
Bootsy for the next generation! So great!
Just realizing 90%of everyone in that theater wasnt born when this jam first came out pure genius me?im 63 myself so i know i was around
That was awesome...and for a second I thought Bootsy was a recording but nope he still sounds the same some 43 yrs later...."Funk-Away" !!!!!!!!
Bootsy should be introduced in UNESCO world heritage centre. A real life super hero.
That was a very awesome performance👍Bootsy and CYO? Just Love It!

I was an original Funkateer in the 70's, Love watching These little Funkateers.
Bootsy was always great with kids

The funkmaster. The legend. This crowd doesn't appreciate greatness. He needs to be in a different venue. Long live the Funk !!!
I don't see how anyone can thumb down this creativity right here? This is legendary all across the board. Real music being played and sung by kids of all ages. The orchestra is the business! Congratulations, kids you've just been funkdafied! Keep playing your instruments and singing, it makes you feel good! Applause to Mr. Collins! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🎼🎵🎶🎙

Hello Liza from Canada! Honor to meet you - I was amazed with the work you and the students put in for the show!

This show needs to go to Broadway in New York! The youthful audience and participants of this video will forever remember this hallowed moment of being immersed in the rejuvenating power of PFunk by the Grandmaster of Funk himself, the incomparable Bootsey Collins.
Awesome!!
Bootsy's child like carefreeness is the perfect combination for that young energy. The youngins seemed like they were absorbing that funk as well. AWESOME!!!
