Funky Meters - Live From The New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival

Rating:
Summary: The (Funky) METERS jam like no one else!
Review: The Meters (aka the Funky Meters) pretty much invented funk music. We'll give James Brown and company some credit too but these guys are masters in their own right. Their classic early records are a must but perhaps suprisingly their live shows 35+ years later are just as captivating. This JazzFest performance was captured in 2000 and the band moves from one song to the next as if they were all borne from the same funky groove. Not a clunker in the bunch. From the classic "Cissy Strut" to the equally classic "Look-ka Py Py" these guys have the power to entertain. A truly inspired live set. And reason enough to head out to see these guys live every chance you get.
