Quoted:
Anyone ever listen to Funk?
There's an incredible band out of New Orleans that's been around for years called "[b]The Meters[/b]". They are with out question one of the best bands ever.
I'm not talkin' about P-Funk style funk music, or Parlament, it's more classic, rootsy funk, sort of like James Browns funkiest stuff.
If that's your mood, then The Meters are THE band.

This band from Oakland is THE band for Soul/Funk.
35 years. Still touring the world. Best horn section in the Business.
James Brown IS the Godfather of Soul for sure, heavily influencing the "horn bands".
I'll check out The Meters, though. Always looking for the "funk".
Thanks for the tip.
