"I recently purchased a Pro-Ject Debut Carbon DC turntable from you, and I am really impressed with the level of detail and customer service I’ve received so far. The instruction folder is a great touch, and your excellent site gave me tons of info and insight into buying and setting up the turntable. Bravo!" - P. Cuffari
"Wow. I just got the turntable. It is amazing. I love the bags, I love the fact that I got it literally less than 24 hours after ordering, I love the cartoon easy set up pics, the stickers, record cleaner brush, and the sound is great for the money. SOOO Happy!! Thanks guys and gals--you just created a customer for life."- R. Montgomery
"I love the Turntable Lab, great service & great products. There's no other store or site I'd rather buy my gear from. I'll sure keep on purchasing my equipment from TTL."- D. Martinez
"It's always nice to feel like you're appreciated, and you guys have done a great job with that."- R. Abeel
"Turntable lab constantly deliver the best and most current selection of modern music on all formats. It's my first stop for vinyl house and disco music. The reviews are accurate and I can trust the buyers to source quality product. Customer service is second to none and Bret has been nothing short of outstanding in every interaction we've ever had. Proud to be a Labhead." - G. Laurie
"First off I just want to thank you and your team for everything you do! The equipment and products you sell are awesome and exactly what artists like me need. I remember when I first discovered Turntable Lab by searching online for DJ equipment. I was looking all over for different equipment that I needed and when I found TTL I was relieved to find out that you guys basically had everything I was looking for." - C. Arroyo
"My Rane mixer arrived safely yesterday. I just wanted to say thanks to you and your team for your speedy response to my initial enquiry and efficient delivery. Great price and great service, I'll definitely be telling my friends about it." - A. McConnell (Marrickville, Australia)

Aahh, The Meters, one of most trusted names in beat digging. Their LPs seem to have disappeared somewhere between here and the Mississippi; but occasionally a 45 pops up on the rainbow Josie label which makes me feel warm inside. Drop a needle on a Meters record and the first thing you'll notice is the kick. The Toussaint/Sehorn production brings the drums hard and to the top. The Meters also got that Nawlins Twang workin which makes their sound unique. This is the first LP which is full of songs made famous via funky 45. "Cissy Strut" starts the LP and has become the definition of the Meters' sound. "Here Comes the Meter Man" is a drum and cymbal heavy groover that sounds like Animal from the Muppets is on drums. Watch out for sneak attack break outro that was looped on Beats for Jugglers 2. Track 3 "Cardova" is my favorite on this album with that sinister bass and drum that Babu used on Comprehension (the part he skratches "Check it out"). Many more chunky beats and laid back grooves. I heard Linda Ronstadt hit all the Nevilles. Do they got Popeye's Fried Chicken in New Orleans? Can I get a Po-Boy?
- black vinyl pressing
- cut from original analog master tapes
- original release year: 1969
- music label: Jackpot Records 2025
