Released as a single from their eponymous debut album, it reached No. 4 on the R&B chart and No. 23 on the Billboard Hot 100. The tune was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2011, which honors recordings of lasting qualitative or historical significance that are at least 25 years old. The A.V. Club called the song a classic deeply rooted in New Orleans music tradition.Cissy Strut was featured in the films Jackie Brown, Red, King Richard and Another Round as well as in the BBC television series The Pursuit of Love.In 2021, Rolling Stone ranked Cissy Strut at number 158 on their 500 Greatest Songs of All Time list, one of the handful of instrumentals to make the list.Many transcribers of this tune obscure the 1/4 notes by improperly beaming the 1/16 notes. This arrangement fixes that issue. Many bass players just play the hook during solos. This arrangement shows example of the vamp that do not rely on the hooks. The tune uses the Boden form used by Bartok and is used when playing jazz ballads.

It likely doesn't settle for a simple root note on every beat. Here are some potential rhythmic complexities it might explore:Polyrhythms: Imagine two or three different rhythmic ideas happening simultaneously within the bassline. This could involve playing notes in triplets or quintuplets against a steady underlying beat.Syncopation: The groove might emphasize the off-beats – the spaces between the main downbeats – creating a sense of surprise and anticipation.Hemiola: This technique creates a sense of rhythmic ambiguity by playing a 3-over-4 pattern (three notes in the space of four beats). It can make the listener feel like the time signature is constantly shifting.Ghost Notes: These are lightly played notes that add rhythmic tension and detail without fully sounding out.Feel and Genre: While the rhythm is complex, Larry Duncan likely still lays down a solid groove. Depending on the genre, it could feel:Funky: Think of slapping and popping techniques with a focus on creating a pocket for the drummer to lock into.Fusion: The bassline might weave between complex jazz-inspired rhythms and driving rock feels.Progressive Rock: Imagine a bassline that mirrors the genre's adventurous spirit, constantly evolving and surprising the listener.Overall, Larry Duncan is a bassline for the adventurous player and listener. Its complex rhythms keep you guessing while still laying down a groove that makes you move.
