Led by organist Art Neville, the quartet was rounded out by jazz-influenced guitarist Leo Nocentelli, along with the bubbling rhythm section of bassist George Porter, Jr. and drummer Joseph \"Zigaboo” Modeliste. Their regional influences were a smashing together of rock n’ roll, syncopated ‘second line’ rhythms from Mardi Gras parades, and jazz improvisations that only could have come from the New Orleans music scene. The Meters helped move R\u0026amp;B music toward the heavier direction of funk—complicated rhythms meeting economically powerful riffs that were the wave of what was to come. Their debut album, originally released in 1969. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCut from the Original analog master tapes by Kevin Gray at Cohearent Audio. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e     Includes:\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003eCissy Strut \u003cbr\u003eHere Comes the Meter Man \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eCardova\u003cbr\u003eLive Wire \u003cbr\u003eArt \u003cbr\u003eSophisticated Cissy \u003cbr\u003eEase Back \u003cbr\u003e6V6 LA \u003cbr\u003eSehorns Farm \u003cbr\u003eAnn \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eStormy \u003cbr\u003eSimple Song \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNEW SEALED re-issue LP on standard black vinyl \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Jackpot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49319540916475,"sku":null,"price":31.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0807\/4553\/files\/TheMetersdebutLPfront.jpg?v=1693717212","url":"https:\/\/orbitrecords.com\/products\/meters-the-meters-debut","provider":"Orbit Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
