In 1968, the Collins brothers, along with Kash Waddy and Philippe Wynne, formed a group called The Pacesetters, better known as The JB's, James Brown's backing band. By 1972, Collins and the rest of the JB's had quit James Brown and joined Funkadelic. Four years later, Collins joined Bootsy's Rubber String Band, which included Waddy, Joel "Razor Sharp" Johnson (keyboards), Gary "Muddbone" Cooper (drums), and Robert "P-Nut" Johnson (vocals), along with The Horny Horns. Collins has also played on albums by Deee-Lite, Freekbass, and H-Bomb.
