At first I thought it was just OK. There were things about it that were likable. When I got to track 4. Rhapsody in Berlin, the drums and rhythm guitar reminded of another song. So I went about searching for the song. Didn't find an exact match. My initial hunch was either Look Ka Py Py or Cissy Strut, but let's be realistic those songs are twenty times more funky. Yeah, those songs completely done me in for the night. When I went back to "We Be All Africans" I couldn't take any of it anymore. I should have just stuck to the album, and not wonder off from it trying to figure what song Rhapsody in Berlin reminded me of. So thanks The Meters for ruining this album for me.
