"Cissy Strut" from Oz Noy's "Twisted Blues Volume 1" Album. Originally by The Meters!

Some of y'all don't be countin so well! easy, easy, don't get offended. Easiest way for me, a drummer, is to count in 8th notes, 4 groups of 7, 8, 7, 10, which equals 32, evenly divisable into 8 bars of 4/8 (or 4 bars of 4/4). I say 7/8/7/10 because that's where I hear/feel the melodic segments start/stop......After a while you lock into the pattern and you're not counting anymore. But that's what I do to get oriented.

This guy is supposed to be some new guitar god? Nice song, well played. Could've been played just as well by 1000 other nameless guitarists. The bar seems so much lower since New York City took over 100% of our culture in the U.S., doesn't it?

[vampolka]

@teerexness Check out his version of Blue Monk, or his original What Love Is.

[teerexness]

@vampolka, check out Jeff Beck. And he doesn't need all the pedals. Eric Johnson, Steve Morse, Steve Hackett, Derek Trucks and Warren Haynes. Etc., etc.. Life's much too short to listen to this guy when there are so many great guitarists out there.

wtf time is that?

[aleifhamdan]

@mmwphan it's actually easier to count it 4/4 the whole way, like the drumbeat, its just that he inserts two 7/8s to give that f*cked up feeling

[DrummerRF]

@aleifhamdan I see not how you can count a 7/8 in this song. There is only 4/4.

[aleifhamdan]

@DrummerRF yes, but the guitar, organ and bass give off the impression of a 7/8 is what i mean.

[DrummerRF]

@aleifhamdan i would say 6/8 6/8 3/8 6/8 7/8 4/8 but there is no sence since its the easyest to just count 4/4 and try to understand how the funk feel works in that way.

[Twanger73]

Awesome, nice to see him playin' a Tele : )

[GuitarSdmn]

Unbelievable.



[amoergosum3]

[artartand]

Originally by the Meters (Leo Nocentelli, George Porter Jr, Art Neville and Zigabo Modeliste) and covered by the Funky Meters (Art Neville, George Porter Jr, Brian Stoltz and Russell Batiste)...big difference...
