Received as from "The Sands" but can't confirm it (T1-T7). RE: (T8 & T9). Cyril says "The Showboat" at one point. (Both are evidently Casinos)

Station break during Hey Pocky Way:
WNOE New Orleans

*Light static noticible between songs,slight hiss & a couple channel drops but very very good for the vintage- IMO. Filler tacks 8 & 9 seem to come from a higher genned/ different broadcast/venue but the music is red hot.

Meters Flood, eh? I usually stick to uploading jazz & fusion but love the funk & thought I would share this one. I traded for it about ten years ago & not sure how much it actually circulates. Etree lists only a couple of "owners".


This was recorded right around the release of "Trick Bag" and just after they got back from a European Tour opening for the Stones.


Request: If anybody has a copy of The Meters @ Tipitina's 2/21/77- Please upload.



enjoy,
