IWTYO age 52, when I realized that Beastie Boys Root Down references The Meters Cissy Strut and Look Ka Py Py in the lyrics. Have listened to this song and album hundreds of times. Getting more into funk and jazz because my 12 yr old son is playing drums. Trying to expose him to different drum styles. He appreciates the Meters and AWB cant wait to intro him to this linkage. Love showing my kids the original music that they hear samples from! They dismiss it as Unc/ dad lore but someday they will appreciate!
