Thought I'd stay in New Orleans and play 'Fire On The Bayou', the sixth studio album by The Meters.
For those who aren't familiar with The Meters, the band was founded by one of my favorite drummers, Zigaboo Modeliste, Leo Nocentelli and George Porter Jr, and Art Neville, who also performed with his brothers in the appropriately named The Neville Brothers. Considered one of the early pioneers of Funk, The Meters also worked as a backing band for such New Orleans musicians as Dr. John, Allen Toussaint and Lee Dorsey.
You can find the full album here or here. Enjoy!
