If you're looking for some funky-ass tubas, check out the insane groove
of The Rebirth Brass Band (who are also featured on Maceo Parker's
"Southern Exposure" album). Amazing band. Also, Check out The Dirty Dozen
Brass Band, although I do believe that it is not technically a tuba being
played....some other odd brass.

Definitely give them a listen. Real New Orleans Second Line Funk.

Peace, groovemeisters.

Z-Love
