Bootsys Rubber Band is a P.Funk band created and led in 1976 by bass player Bootsy Collins. The band features his brother Catfish Collins on guitar, Frank Waddy on drums, and includes the Horny Horns, along with vocalists Gary "Mudbone" Cooper and Robert "P.Nut" Johnson. Frederick Allen was the original keyboard player, replaced by Joel "Razor" Johnson in 1977. Leslyn Bailey was the only female vocalist but left the band shortly after their first release, "Strechin' Out." With the support of George Clinton, the band released four LPs for Warner Brothers between 1976 and 1979, as well as two 12" singles in 1982 and 1990. In 1994, Bootsy recreated his band under the name Bootsy's New Rubber Band, featuring many original members.
