The Meters - Struttin' (Blue Jay, LP Vinyl)

Similar in sound to Look-Ka Py Py, Struttin' distinguished itself with its increased emphasis on Art Neville‘s vocal stylings. (As opposed to the call-and-response shouted choruses from previous albums.)The album included the R&B Singles hit "Chicken Strut," soulful covers of Lee Dorsey, Ty Hunter, and even Jimmy Webb, and directed the group into a more expansive sound than before, rendering one of the most organic sounds in their discography.Classic samples abound across Struttin' with everyone from Dilla to A Tribe Called Quest to Whitney Houston, has had their way with "Handclapping Song."
