Summary

***This show is brought to you by DistroKid. Go to http://distrokid.com/vip/the500 for 30% off your first year!*** The Meters had become a name as Allen Toussaint’s backing band, but by the time they released their fifth album, Rejuvenation, in the mid-1970s, they had successfully merged groovy funk with swamp rock.
