OK, it's not a traditional mandolin tune, but anybody know the Meters' Cissy Strut? What are those chords which come in the middle of the riff (or on the vamp, for that matter)?
(For those unfamiliar with the Meters, I think of them as a group out of which the Neville Brothers were born. They sound as if the personnel of Booker T and the MGs had been secretly replaced by alumni from James Brown or Sly and the Family Stone. Actually, they just sound like the Meters, spare New Orleans funk.)
