Comment:
Being the funkiest band ever to come out of New Orleans is no small feat, but there’s never been another band quite like the Meters. Everybody knows the band’s killer keyboard man, Art Neville, as the driving force behind another Crescent City institution, the Neville Brothers, but his three Metermates have left equally funky footprints on the music world. Guitar demon Leo Nocentelli, bass ace George Porter, Jr., and drum daredevil Ziggy Modeliste are all spoken of in awed whispers wherever savvy musicians gather. The Meters are imitated so often, they should get royalties just for opening up their eyes in the morning, and they’ve been bringing the funk from the bayou to you since the ’60s (with the occasional hiatus). If you want to do the “Mardi Gras Mambo,” you’ve got to get in step with the fatback funk these four men throw down, and there’s no better way to do that than with our own guide to the Meters’ mightiest moves.
