Notes from Freezer: It's the Meters WITHOUT any Neville participation, as Art and Cyril had already left to be the Neville Brothers Band. Its a very short-lived edition of the Meters (early on billing themselves as The FUNKY Meters....years before the 'official' date for the use of that name....)

Willie West is on vocals here.

This radio show was aired on July 25, 1977 as part of WNOE-New Orleans' 101-LIVE series of live concert broadcasts.

The very next night, July 26, 1977, Quicksilver Messenger Service was broadcast on this same series.

(By the way, the WNOE 101-LIVE announcer is Bobby Reno, who still can be heard on WTIX in New Orleans. Bobby was Earl King's protegee back in the mid-sixties, and Bobby had a regional hit in 1966 with a song Earl wrote, "Soul Train"..... long before there was a TV show or a "Don Cornelius"......)"
