More funk from New Orleans

Posted almost 4 years ago

Artist:
- PLAY
The Meters
Album:
- PLAY
- QUEUE
Look-Ka Py Py

I know that the Meters are hardly unknown on MOG, but there's never a "wrong" time to play them.According to bassist George Porter, they got the riff for this tune from a burnt piston in the engine of the band's van. After a while, Zig started drumming on the inside of the roof, then Art started singing "bom she bom bom".The rest is history

mollifire says aw yeah! The Meters are brilliant! I was so happy to see George Porter and the Nevilles together in SF at the first MOG party. It was soooo steamy in that club from all the dancing, felt like N'Arlins after all...
