This week’s Listen to This is here! Following a funky and groove-based theme, some of my favourite tracks are included here!
- The Meters – Cissy Strut – The Meters
Funk legends the Meters need no introduction…check out their classic Cissy Strut!
Listen via streaming services.
- Snarky Puppy – Quarter Master – 10/13/15 Tourcoing, FR
Perhaps the finest and most improvisational version of this song I have ever heard, the big-band New Orleans-inspired song gets a complete vibe change to a laid-back and psychedelic groove. Stretching to over 19-minutes, the entire band shows off their musical prowess at the height of their 2015 fall tour. Mark Lettieri absolutely wrecks a guitar solo!!
Listen via Nugs.net. - Herbie Hancock – Chameleon – Head Hunters
I can remember listening to this funk classic when I was extremely young – 15 minutes of pure, unadulterated GROOVE.
