“A BREATH OF FRESH AIR”

with Sandy Kaye

MONDAYS 2:00PM‬ & FRIDAYS 10:30PM

This week:

In the vibrant music scene of New Orleans during the 1960s a group of exceptional musicians came together to form a band that would redefine funk music.

Bassist George Porter Jr. joined forces with Art Neville (keyboards), Joseph "Zigaboo" Modeliste (drums), and Leo Nocentelli (guitar) to create “The Meters”.

Hits like "Cissy Strut" and "Sophisticated Cissy" showcased their innovative approach to rhythm and melody, laying the foundation for the future of funk music.

Their albums "The Meters" (1969), "Look-Ka Py Py" (1969), and "Struttin'" (1970) propelled them to prominence. While their initial success was felt mainly in their hometown of New Orleans, their influence spread far beyond.

Their rhythmic grooves became the foundation for hip-hop, with countless artists sampling their tracks. This influence solidified their legacy as pioneers of the funk genre. After the band's initial disbandment, George Porter Jr. pursued a solo career, showcasing his exceptional bass skills.

The Meters received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award, a testament to their significant contributions to music.

Their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in the same year immortalized their place in music history. George Porter Jr. and The Meters revolutionized funk music with their unparalleled instrumental prowess and innovative grooves.
