Brand new sealed 180 gram album with bonus tracks.
Cabbage Alley is the fourth studio album by the funk group The Meters.
Cabbage Alley was the band's first album with Reprise Records after leaving Josie Records which went bankrupt in 1971.[1][4] The album's title track "Cabbage Alley" was inspired in part by Professor Longhair's "Hey Now Baby".[5] According to Lionel Batiste Sr., drummer of Treme Brass Band: "Cabbage Alley was around Perdido Street. They had a lot of musicians down there—it was almost like a [red light] district—fast women. Near the battlefield."[6]
