The Meters Vinyl
The Meters' self-titled debut is the record where funk stopped being a feel and became a language, four New Orleans musicians proving how much space you can leave in a groove.
Art Neville had already been making records for over a decade when this arrived in 1969, and the band he put around his organ was almost absurdly well suited: Leo Nocentelli's jazz-schooled guitar, George Porter Jr.'s bass, and Joseph "Zigaboo" Modeliste's drums, which do things to a backbeat that drummers are still trying to reverse engineer. What came out was rock and roll shoved up against Mardi Gras second line syncopation and jazz improvisation, a combination that could only have come from that city. Every funk record made since owes something here, and every hip hop producer who ever flipped a break knows this album by catalogue number.
Cissy Strut is the one everybody knows, four musicians locking into a riff so economical it feels like an argument won. Sophisticated Cissy struts harder and slower, Ease Back builds tension by simply refusing to resolve, and Here Comes the Meter Man announces the whole aesthetic in under three minutes: nothing wasted, nothing rushed.
Mostly instrumental, entirely conversational, and still the cleanest lesson in groove anyone has recorded.
