Love the Wild Tchoupitoulas, but I prefer the Meters' version of Hey Pocky Way. It's most of the same guys on the track, either way.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess there won't be any EyeHateGod "Beat of the Day" links.

Not that there's anything wrong with The Meters.

Legendary album! What grooves came out of New Orleans, a giant among all the great music cities of the world.

My own fave is still Meet The Boys on The Battlefront.
