The first single was the song &#8220;Chicken Strut&#8221;. It reached #11 on the U.S. R&#038;B Singles chart.<br \/>\nIt may not appear to be drastically different than its predecessors, at least not on the surface. After all, the title of the lead single &#8220;Chicken Strut&#8221; intentionally recalls their previous biggest &#8220;Cissy Strut,&#8221; and it has the same basic Meters groove. And if the essential sound remains unchanged, that&#8217;s because that organic, earthy funk is The Meters&#8217; signature. Other groups have tried to replicate it, but nobody ever played it better.<br \/>\nIt was on this album The Meters introduced vocals to their style as well, with Art Neville&#8217;s leads on covers of Ty Hunter&#8217;s soulful uptown shuffle &#8220;Darling, Darling, Darling,&#8221; Jimmy Webb&#8217;s groovy ballad &#8220;Wichita Lineman,&#8221; and Lee Dorsey&#8217;s &#8220;Ride Your Pony&#8221; (the Meters provided support on the original recording).<\/p>\n<p>180 gram audiophile vinyl<br \/>\nIncluding the hit single &#8220;Chicken Strut&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There is funk, and there is Funk.
