Classic re-issue from Jazzman with two amazing funk soul tracks which have been much sampled
A superb song that is remembered by all who hear it, not just down to the soulful vocals but also to one of the simplest, catchiest and memorable bass lines in soul music history being sampled by the likes of Biz Markie. Being the founding member and keyboard player of The Meters, Art is probably the best known, although it was Aaron who was the first to have success through music with his #1 hit ‘Tell it Like it Is’ in 1966. His next project was with brother Cyril with a funk band called the Soul Machine, and in 1975 he recorded Hercules before forming The Wild Tchoupitoulas with Charles and Cyril. Problems with the pressing of the Hercules 45 meant they were deemed as faulty so the record never got a proper release; it’s most likely that they were all destroyed, since originals are almost impossible to find. |
