Under-appreciated is the word I'd use. @@davedawave4705 Downbeat magazine had a section called "artist deserving wider recognition". Little Feat fits that like a glove.
+Mistertbones my old man used to allways rave about little feat and i just used to laugh but after whiskey + little feat playlist on youtube has made me a believer
This band with leader, Lowell George, was fusion tight and got it right by playing it loose and blended rock, country, jazz, soul, blues and gospel, all electric. I found out about their sound from college buddy in 1972. I saw this Feat line-up Live in mid 1970s. So this lineup is: Lead vocals/guitar Lowell George; drums Richard Hayward, bass guitarist Ken Gradney, guitarist-vocalist Paul Barrere, keyboard Bill Payne and conga player Sam Clayton. Great stuff, wish there was more, thanks!
I still have a 45 record with Fat man in the bathtub on one side and Dixie Chicken on the other side. And I still have a Little Feat 8 track tape that I wore out when I was a kid. But surprisingly, the record AND the 8 track tape STILL play. Yeah I know I'm still living in the 70's. 😂
don't matter what he's playing, Billy Payne is the greatest. I love how everyone just looks over and watches him when he solos. Plus he's the sweetest guy ever.
Someone else said essentially the same thing about Waiting for Columbus. Agree, the top 3, in no particular order: Columbus, Allbros at Fillmore, Rock of Ages (actually the soundboard mix from the last night of that gig on the box set, Live at the Academy).
Did you know Eric Clapton said he wanted his band to hear Feat to hear what a band should sound like? Dylan, Stones, Led Zep and others called them a "bands' band." UNDERRATED!!!!
they were an AMAZING band live. I was lucky enough to see Little Feat 3 times, front row. A great show each time. Lowell George, I love you and miss you
Holy Krap..anybody hear the announcer saying they played this at 9.30 AM???!This is beyond doubt,one of the greatest bands ever to set foot on a stage-a truly unique take on pop music, mixed in w/ Some 'Nawlins 2nd-line Riddims. Lowell George was certainly key to their sound, likely the heart of the band-possibly the most soulful White Soul singer ever,plus a FABulous songwriter & slide Guitarist-seems like the Feat were never the same after he passed.Still miss ya,Lowell.
Moi, je l'adore!!! I love it!!! J'adore ces beaux souvenirs de ma jeunesse pendant les années 70. I love these wonderful memory's of my youth during the seventies.
one of my fav all time bands ..and some of the nicest musicians on the planet ..had the opportunity to wrap with paul and richie....what an honor that was....

9:30 am and they still look as high as they could be! I love this band soo much!! My folks played them all the time when I was growing up and they were one of the bands I never grew out of, or not liked throughout all of my phases of music listening in my short 30 years here.
Every now and then someone comes along that is just a little better than everyone else. There were lots of good groups out of this time period. But only one Feat. Know one else played this style of music, this good, this available.
What can I say? Best version I´ve heard! Heard everything and been to several concerts with them for 30 years. Unfortunately im still to young to have heard ´´em live with Lowell! Have never been and will never be anything like them. A band full of talent growing together in total symbiosis. Love! Bands like this are just a few in music history!
Saw Little Feat at Auckland Town Hall, New Zealand in the 70's. About the best show I've ever seen. Still one of my favourites. Not sure if it's true or not but someone once told me that Mick Jagger once described Little Feat as the "greatest little rock and roll band in the world.".
loved little feat since hearing 1st lp in 71; saw this at time ; and saw them with Lowell whenever they were in uk in 70s; played all genres; Lowell ; genius slide and vocalist [and much missed]
I saw this on old grey whistle test jan 75, /and saw them in 70s/ one of my all time fave bands ./lovethis song, band/Lowell George ;soulfull vocals, master slideman, /wonderful memories
I saw them in 1975, general admission @ Wesleyan. I stood against the stage, could almost grab Lowell's leg from where I was. One of the best shows that I ever saw. And I saw some great shows, including seeing Genesis do The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway (on Broadway in NYC!), and many Grateful Dead shows including the New Haven May 1977 show. Little Feat was a fantastic band, so sorry that Lowell died so young. Hearing that he died was like when I heard Belushi died or John Lennon died. A gut punch. For my high school yearbook picture I used the caption: "You bring the guitar, I'll bring the wine, We'll blow out our speakers just one more time."
Thank you for setting the record straight. Toussaint and the Meters were a big part of the success of that LP. The Slppin Sally parts of the LP would be played during Little Feat LPs at parties that I attended in Louisiana.
It's good to see Lowell in his prime and the band at it's peak. It got a lot worse for them as it progressed - the ravages of time and fortune - but this stuff is golden! Hell, almost everything they did was tighter than a fly's butt musically and off the charts technically - literally, off the charts, no bank. Sad story, but a great teaching tool.
Ah, the memories...Whispering Bob, one of the classic OGWT shows. I was lucky enough to have been a very early Feat freak and to have been present at the legendary Rainbow concert in '75 when they opened for the Doobie Bros. and completely blew them away. For me, at the time and for some years thereafter, the greatest band in the world!
OH MY GOSH. I cannot deal. This is phenomenal. Lowell you bring on the effing heat. SO talented. I saw him and his band, they opened for Bonnie Raitt 1976, East Lansing MI. God. I loved this band.
These guys are still playing good shows. Never could replace Lowell, of course, but they still rock. Got to give it up to these bands who are around after decades, back on the road and kickin it.
I was at one of the concerts during hat package tour! Seventeen years old, it was a massive and impressive experience. Got me hooked on their music for good, as well as the music from the other bands in that tour. Doobie Bros, Bonaroo, Montrose, Graham Central Station, Tower Of Power... Still listen to all of them on occasion.
Thank u so much. Saw the Feat at Parkhead (Glasgow) in 76 then at newcastle in 77. Lowell was a huge talent and seen here at his best. Taught so many other how to sing!!!
I didn't ever get to see this band live but did see the movie at least 10 times before the movie moved on. It should have been shown at the drive in's ✌️❤️🌼
Lowell George - his genius echoes over the years. I saw Little Feat 3 times at the Orpheum in Boston, front row each time courtesy of Debbie Chase, my dear friend who worked for Don Law. I cried when Lowell George died... such a loss, such a great talent... I still miss him. Mark Diaz
Lowell George was so cool!!! What a great, funky band! Of course, remember this was the age of Doctor John, Wilson Pickett, Bonny and Delaney and so many more...
Yes!! Little Feat were a very unique band back in their day had a funky sound all their own.. I bought three or four of their albums they never got real big but had a strong loyal base of fans.. Robert Palmer made a few early albums with a few of Little Feats band he was real funky early on too
Sneakin' Sally Through The Alley is an excellent album and is nothing like the slick FM college rock which Palmer had his major hits with later on...All FEAT fans are already probably aware of it and Pressure Drop, probably Palmer's best albums.

Not underrated.
Criminally underrated.
Still underated
Under-appreciated is the word I'd use. @@davedawave4705 Downbeat magazine had a section called "artist deserving wider recognition". Little Feat fits that like a glove.
Lowell George is easily one of the most underrated guitarists of all time. RIP Lowell.
Mistertbones along with Little Feat being an underrated band
+Mistertbones my old man used to allways rave about little feat and i just used to laugh but after whiskey + little feat playlist on youtube has made me a believer
And an underrated singer and songwriter.
Singer,songwriter,arranger,producer,guitarist extrodinaire. What couldn't this guy do.Also played a mean harmonica.
@@JSTX9216 ..Ry Cooder?
Words can't describe how good this band was!!
Got the chance to see them way longtime ago....
Saw them in London way back mid 70's, the curent line up is just as good.
me too .... on acid
Just saw them today, 17 Aug 2024. Bill Payne has the chops, and Sam and Kenny have the pocket. The band is still REAL good.
This band with leader, Lowell George, was fusion tight and got it right by playing it loose and blended rock, country, jazz, soul, blues and gospel, all electric. I found out about their sound from college buddy in 1972. I saw this Feat line-up Live in mid 1970s.

I saw this lineup in 77 at the Tower, what a show, what a band
Never gets old.... and never forgotten. Insanely entertaining band of brothers.
Love everything they did. Great band, one of America’s finest.
Such an underrated band! Jimmy Page once said they were his favourite American band
It should be noted that at this point in time he regretfully doesn't recall that sentiment but hopes that it's true.
Yes so sad such great music sadly gone now
@@christopherbright1048the music lives on, as long as you listen to it. But sure is sad that Lowell George is gone.
I still have a 45 record with Fat man in the bathtub on one side and Dixie Chicken on the other side. And I still have a Little Feat 8 track tape that I wore out when I was a kid. But surprisingly, the record AND the 8 track tape STILL play. Yeah I know I'm still living in the 70's. 😂
I love these guys. Especially Lowell George.
Rest in peace man. You are missed.
And the rest of these guys are still great in concert.
Lowell George was the best!
don't matter what he's playing, Billy Payne is the greatest. I love how everyone just looks over and watches him when he solos. Plus he's the sweetest guy ever.
RIP Lowell 😪 🙏 💜 🙏
Hello Eileen, How are you doing?
What else can be said... BEAUTIFUL!
Waiting For Columbus is and always will be one of my favorite albums. A party favorite for decades!
Waiting for Columbus is one of the top live albums ever.
Love the FEAT❤
One of THE best live albums...ever!
Right and Tower of Power Horn section smokin
Little Feat seemed to always perform awesome each time they put on a live show. Can never get tired of all their versions, especially this song.
Geoff Gyro was this at The Catalyst?
P😊😊😊
One of the most incredible live acts I’ve ever seen. Easily the greatest American Band ever.
Right there with the band
Yes they were!
Love the Feat, but that honor goes to the Allman Brothers.
one o' the great ones
Someone else said essentially the same thing about Waiting for Columbus. Agree, the top 3, in no particular order: Columbus, Allbros at Fillmore, Rock of Ages (actually the soundboard mix from the last night of that gig on the box set, Live at the Academy).
Love this song ! Two thumbs up for Little Feat ! Great band ! Just love'm .
Did you know Eric Clapton said he wanted his band to hear Feat to hear what a band should sound like? Dylan, Stones, Led Zep and others called them a "bands' band." UNDERRATED!!!!
Easy money , two trains. Lowell George one of the greatest storytelling ever
if you don't love this, you probably don't have a soul!
rip lowell george
you got that right ...
dusk to +InfernusGate
A must have album: 'waiting for columbus'!!!!!@@
For sure!
they were an AMAZING band live. I was lucky enough to see Little Feat 3 times, front row. A great show each time. Lowell George, I love you and miss you

Great song. Excellent slide work by Paul and Lowell, a great amount of percussion on there. A tremendous song!
I am so privileged to have discovered the absolute master....Lowell George!!
Hello Rebecca, How are you doing?
Saw the Feat twice here in Hawaii. One other member passed away not long ago. Great Band!!! RIP BROTHERS.
My all time favorite.
This held a precise time in my life and this song is a time capsule. Love.
Juanita that's me.. Love this song
What a Band! Thank you Lowell, Bill, Richie. Paul & Sam.
You guys are the best, PERIOD!
So funky. So so funky!
Lowell George, another great guitarist gone too soon ! Great band, great tune !
definitely a great band. They were really popular in the d.c. area and played often around here.
Moi, je l'adore!!! I love it!!! J'adore ces beaux souvenirs de ma jeunesse pendant les années 70. I love these wonderful memory's of my youth during the seventies.
We miss you George! R.I.P.
Please make a movie about him. Jack Black would be the perfect fit. Too charismatic and important not to be paid tribute through film.
Excellent comment. I would wait in the rain to see that film done well....ring Russell Crowe & Johnny Depp....
Oh girl, you are so right.On both counts.Absolutely one of my all time favorites!
i've been saying that for nearly a decade, would be so perfect
Jack Black yes, but I thought it actually *was* Matt Berry! wychwoodfestival.com/line-up/images/content/small/2016/Matt-Berry-and-The-Maypoles.jpg
Yesssss, you are so right !!! It would need to start with Lowell working at the Truck Stop to get the "feel " of what molded this Musical Genius !!!!!
This is such a spicy soup of goodness and good vibes. Hell of a band and LG always on form
one of my fav all time bands ..and some of the nicest musicians on the planet ..had the opportunity to wrap with paul and richie....what an honor that was....
Pure gold.
He plays slide guitar with a drumstick in one hand better than anybody else, too.

Little Feat is my all time favorite!!!
The best wake-up tunes E V E R ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! that is all.lol Enjoy your days.
Your very welcome
Every now and then someone comes along that is just a little better than everyone else. There were lots of good groups out of this time period. But only one Feat. Know one else played this style of music, this good, this available.
***** Could not have said it better myself.
You goddamn right.
Fuckin Lowell George.
It's not remotely southern rock.
It's New Orleans Rock ( with a serious dose of funk ).
Great stuff! Whispering Bob Harris coming in at the end there. Bless him - good memories.
What can I say? Best version I´ve heard! Heard everything and been to several concerts with them for 30 years. Unfortunately im still to young to have heard ´´em live with Lowell! Have never been and will never be anything like them. A band full of talent growing together in total symbiosis. Love! Bands like this are just a few in music history!
Saw them several months ago. They still jam with the
best of them as does Hot Tuna, another great 70's jam
band.

One of the best !!
I just love this song !!
CLASSIC‼
This the treat of all treats watching and listening to this great band.
Just saw little feat live in concert 2022 in New orleans what a band feel good music

Needs more Cow Bell !!! >.
the BEST bar band in the world! a thirty year overnight success story, and I luv seein'em every chance I get!!!!
I do believe even Walken would be satisfied by Lowell's cowbell during Bill's Solo :-D
That would be true, except for... it's not a "cowbell"
@@billskuras7449 Lowell is playing cowbell at the beginning , Sam Clayton is playing the wood block ☮️☮️☮️
Just enough cowbell?🐮
Niice!
Opening song of the great great Waiting For Columbus live-album. My all time favorite.
These guys are still playing good shows. Never could replace Lowell, of course, but they still rock. Got to give it up to these bands who are around after decades, back on the road and kickin it.
They got the Chicago curse losing the nucleus
Fan-TAS-tic song! Thanks so much for posting. -- Brings back great memories!!!! (-:
Saw the Feat at the Beacon in NYC with Tower of Power Horns backing them, EPIC CONCERT!
Just perfect.
I was at one of the concerts during hat package tour! Seventeen years old, it was a massive and impressive experience. Got me hooked on their music for good, as well as the music from the other bands in that tour.
Doobie Bros, Bonaroo, Montrose, Graham Central Station, Tower Of Power...
Still listen to all of them on occasion.
had the opportunity to see them 5 times in the DC area in late 80s-early 90s and yep-super serious mojo!!
One of the best songs and really good kicker in the gym for me, still in 2019!
Thank u so much. Saw the Feat at Parkhead (Glasgow) in 76 then at newcastle in 77. Lowell was a huge talent and seen here at his best. Taught so many other how to sing!!!
im hooked on this song
Love Bill Paynes keyboard stylings on this too, Just pure brilliant.
Lowell was an awesome slide player and had such a great voice.
Long live the Feat
Peace...Jake
New York is one of my favourite Lou Reed albums!😮😊
I didn't ever get to see this band live but did see the movie at least 10 times before the movie moved on. It should have been shown at the drive in's ✌️❤️🌼

Absolutely underrated ! Criminally so...GERT-TOWN FINEST ON BASS/PERCUSSION.NOLA RULES
Lowell George was so cool!!! What a great, funky band!
Of course, remember this was the age of Doctor John, Wilson Pickett, Bonny and Delaney and so many more...
My favorite band!
This band is still awesome. My favorite band!
Unsurpassable musicianship by each and all. 🌟🌟🌟
Music that just drips with soul
ther has
never been a better more professional group orr as talented as these boyzzz
The best ever! Saw them in Chicago @ the Aragon Ballroom in 1977.
Yes!! Little Feat were a very unique band back in their day had a funky sound all their own.. I bought three or four of their albums they never got real big but had a strong loyal base of fans.. Robert Palmer made a few early albums with a few of Little Feats band he was real funky early on too
20+ year overnight success story... great tunes through the years... live shows are so much fun.
Brings back wonderful memories. Thanks so much for sharing this treasure!
Shivers and Goosebumps for me 👍
Sneakin' Sally Through The Alley is an excellent album and is nothing like the slick FM college rock which Palmer had his major hits with later on...All FEAT fans are already probably aware of it and Pressure Drop, probably Palmer's best albums.
One of the best bands ever: it's not for nothing that Frampton,Mick Taylor and many rock=players liked LF: JUST LISTEN; it has everything
@BohemianConspiracy Good call! Excellent band.
(un)coincidently most of Little Feat appear on Robert Palmer's first solo albums
I thought it was the Meters. Either way!
