[Alcofribas]

look-ka py py is a masterpiece of New Orleans soul. essential record imo

[BobDobalina]

Yeah the first couple albums are some lush N'awlins funk, kinda went to shit after that though.

[Berk]

I love the tracks without the vocals the most

^ definitely. Delvon Lamarr is legit. their first album is great too.

I'm always on the look out for a good jazz/funk instrumental band, especially organ trio's. I lived in south Louisiana back in the late '90s, used to go to New Orleans a bunch for shows. got into this sound since this stuff is everywhere in that town.

this is a pretty awesome story. a 50 year old presumed to be lost unreleased solo album from Meters guitarist Leo Nocentelli was discovered a few years back, and was released last week:

In the 1970s, Nocentelli recorded a folk album drastically different from his band’s funk music. Barely anyone heard it — until it ended up at a swap meet.
