│║ The second album by Art Neville's band continues the sound that ║│
│║ made them New Orleans legends. Instrumental funk at its best. ║│
│║ My personal favorite is the laidback infectious groove of ║│
│║ 'This Is My Last Affair'. Originally released in 1970. ║│
│║ ║│
│║ allmusic.com about The Meters ║│
│║ The Meters defined New Orleans funk, not only on their own ║│
│║ recordings, but also as the backing band for numerous artists, ║│
│║ including many produced by Allen Toussaint. Where the funk of Sly ║│
│║ Stone and James Brown was wild, careening and determinedly urban, ║│
│║ the Meters were down-home and earthy. Nearly all of their own ║│
│║ recordings were instrumentals, putting the emphasis on the ║│
│║ organic and complex rhythms. The syncopated, layered percussion ║│
│║ intertwined with the gritty grooves of the guitar and organ, ║│
│║ creating a distinctive sound that earned a small, devoted cult ║│
│║ during the '70s, including musicians like Paul McCartney and ║│
│║ Robert Palmer, both of whom used the group as a backing band for ║│
│║ recording. Despite their reputation as an extraordinary live ║│
│║ band, the Meters never broke into the mainstream, but their sound ║│
│║ provided the basis for much of the funk and hip-hop of the '80s ║│
│║ and '90s. ║│
│║ ║│
│║ There is a 1999 reissue featuring two previously unreleased bonus ║│
│║ tracks, "Grass" and "Borro.". If u got it, rip it NOW ! ║│

│║ Infinite Grooves was founded in early 1999 with the belief that ║│
│║ the best music has already been made. This was a neglected part ║│
│║ of releasing in the MP3-scene - now that has changed with Infinite ║│
│║ Grooves at the top. We will constantly keep bringing you the very ║│
│║ best in disco-soul, rare grooves, jazz-funk etc. Like wine, a good ║│
│║ groove only gets better with age - so we will bring you back to ║│
│║ the olde school! ║│
