No one answered you, so I will. The Meters are regarded as the first funk band ever.
Art Neville-Keys,vox
Leo Nocentelli-Gitar
George Porter Jr-bass
Joseph "Zigaboo" Modeliste-drums
Cyril Neville-percussion and vox
They were (are) from New Orleans, and set off the great Neville careers. I saw George Porter Jr at Bonnaroo in 2008. It was a treat.
They are most famous for an instrumental- Cissy Strut
