Great stuff! Thanks for posting. I did not realize that "The Fan" dated to well before the expansion to the six member lineup. I first heard it on "Feats Don't Fail Me Now" and then the live version on "Aurora Backseat". A very cool discordant solo by LG. And some great slide licks throughout.
OH... This is fantastic!! For me, this is THE band. Richie, Bill, Roy and Lowell. Wonderfull to hear this.... thanks for posting. I was always nauseated with the addition of Paul and his constant use of chorus pedal. He NEVER turned that damn thing off. Horrendous. Thanks again for this!
This is truly fantastic....thanks!!! Recently read that Jagger said the Stones were listening to Little Feat during the Exile recording and then remixing in L.A.....and also that Jimmy Page was quoted as saying Feat was his favorite group in 1975.
Thankyou so much. The original line-up means so much more to me than the later ones. Those guys are cool but the original four piece was where it's at for me.
Garth Tregillgas Both lineups have their strengths & weaknesses but of the two. .. hell, I love them both. like ones kids. you love them all though they may be quite different.
Don’t know. I.‘be tried again and again and again to get into little feat over the last 40 years and I still can’t get what everyone thinks is so great about them. Here I am again and it was still a no-go. And yes, I have been playing guitar for almost as long as that until a severe left hand injury in 2022. Seen about 400 concerts as well in that time. No disrespect meant just have always left me flat.
@@donduck6621Frank said Lowell smoked more weed than anybody hed ever known. And 'Willin' and 'Truck Stop Girl' were two of the best songs he'd ever heard, and encouraged him to go do it. The 'hard drugs' were later.
jlambert321 -- Hi Jim.... can't hide behind your name and birthdate and not expect a serious sleuth to find you... hee hee. You know how much I miss Lowell. And Paul. And Richie. There was a time I even missed you, you, you.
I agree that the older little feat was the best most authentic band. I guess I would couch that comment that I'm referring to the band and its direction through the live album.
Hot little outfit even then. Good quality for straight off the desk, somebody must have thought this through before they hit record. Can't they be found?
No one cares that you think this version of Little Feat is Better then late 70’s version.. just enjoy this audio gem . What treat!!.. you must be that Dead Head I meet in Oxford Me for the dead /feat weekend in 88’ who told me that the show the Dead previously played in Rochester that he saw was “ sooo much better Bro”..
David Crosby said he thought "Little Feat" was
The greatest band of his era. Nice compliment.
RIP D.C.
Met Little Feat in 1976. Saw them live in 1977. Have never stopped loving Lowell.
Me too in Melbourne in 1976 ☆☆☆☆☆.
Was there and had front row seats. Damn was that a good concert!
Do you remember where in Houston this club was?
I was born on the 17th in Dallas sorry I couldnt make it I tried my best
Some years later I would like to add my thaks for this gem(s)

Don't listen to FL music after Lowell. It isn't Little Feat without him
Yes i was never a fan of his tone or playing
I STILL love this band! Never get enough of LG. So grateful that I was able to see them 2X in the George Halcyon Days.
Thank you!
My oh my oh my, a sweet gem. All the love we missed Lowell
Lowell is in great voice here.
That SOUND! Like none other.
LOVE
This is truly fantastic....thanks!!! Recently read that Jagger said the Stones were listening to Little Feat during the Exile recording and then remixing in L.A.....and also that Jimmy Page was quoted as saying Feat was his favorite group in 1975.
Moe saw in the LA herald-examiner that little feat was the favored band of mick jagger and jimmy page, as you mentioned
Damn, if you can't hear the similarities from the first track here to the 71 era Stones you're deef….Great factoid!
Also, The Fan is FIERCE.
@@superfuzzymomma the fan is my favorite feat song..
When Eric Clapton took his band to see Little Feat he told Bill Payne, "I wanted my band to see a band". High Praise
Little Feat were the music musicians listened to.
Thankyou so much. The original line-up means so much more to me than the later ones. Those guys are cool but the original four piece was where it's at for me.
Holeee you-know-what. Fantastic.
swingin!
Garth Tregillgas Both lineups have their strengths & weaknesses but of the two. .. hell, I love them both. like ones kids. you love them all though they may be quite different.
Agreed...the first album is still the one for me.
So raw and stripped down. Before Lowell George lost control over the group.
Don’t hear this stuff very often. Great to hear early Little Feat and make out little pieces of great things to come.
Always awesome Feat rocking the house down!! Smoking them Redhots!!
If this was at Of our Own club , i was there.
Jan 71 was when I first discovered LF. Thanks!

Great to hear the original quartet
They were doing "The Fan" back then! Who knew?
@@divingduck1970 I think he wrote it when he was still with Frank.
Little Feat--Buffalo Spingfield--Allman Bros Band-they ruled, add say Bachman Turner Ovd and add The Guess Who......a lot of superb bands around then
Great quality......a timepiece
[07 August 2020] Buffaloed in Buffalo, & entertained in Houston. What a great set! Wish I could have been there.Thanks so much for posting this.
Thanks so much for this Earl Guthrie!
Once again Earl, thank you.
You made my Saturday once again.
Great performance by the band.
Listen to Ritchie's backing vocals! Different lyrics to Crack In Your Door! Thanks for posting
wooooooweeeeeee doggie some good live feat
Feat I love miss the 3 feats to so
How good is this? Unbelievable! You can see why they were held in such high esteem by other musicians.
Wonderful sound quality. Thanks.
Lucious Lovely Lowell. ❤️❤️❤️
That was the best 17m52s of my weekend - thank you for sharing, Earl
gem of a post, thanks man!
these little snippets of days gone by make getting old worth it.
Great set! So odd to hear a Little Feat set without Willin' or Sailing Shoes or Dixie Chicken.
Lowell was playing with the Mothers of Invention ... when Frank heard Lowell play " Willin " he told him to go on his own ..
good call uncle frank! forever grateful
thought it was drugs , as frank didnt like that stuff....who knows ....lol...
@@donduck6621Frank said Lowell smoked more weed than anybody hed ever known.
And 'Willin' and 'Truck Stop Girl' were two of the best songs he'd ever heard, and encouraged him to go do it.
The 'hard drugs' were later.
Wow, man, wow!
I miss Lowell George,
don't we all? it became a different world without lowell

Thank you.
believe this was written for/about linda ronstadt, who couldn't resist taking mick jagger home after meeting him at the roxy
the first Feats record turned my head around... and then they got hooked up with the Rock and Roll Doctor and it was all over......
classic
fantastic !!!!
Feat Rule!🦶
Hot little outfit even then. Good quality for straight off the desk, somebody must have thought this through before they hit record. Can't they be found?
Does anyone have this in wav/flac? thx
Lowell sounding a lot like Jagger in this one
Jagger was never as good a singer as Lowell. Never.
“They’re trying to cure me with nicotine and whiskey.”
Listen carefully to that line in the first song.
I’m hearing something different.
Thats what he said...i thought i heard it at first, but nope...Lowell wasnt like that.
Supeeer
