Day 12: “Do the funky Gibbon”...Play anything ..as long as it’s FUNKY and a GOODY.

Pottery - Welcome to Bobby's Motel

If I were to be critical, I'd say this album is overly derivative of Talking Heads at their funkiest, with some LCD Soundsystem freak-outs mixed in... but when I'm listening to it, it's too much fun for me to care.

The Meters - Uptown Rulers! (Live on the Queen Mary)

So FUNKY and very GOODY

Drum note
This is from 1975 when Ziggy Modeliste was still the drummer, and he lays it down so smoothly...he makes it sound so easy to sit in the pocket and groove, then bust out at the perfect time with some killer spotlight moments. Monster funk drumming on display here.
