I was just going back and intentionally listening to stuff I haven't played for years, and I realized that they may be one of the most under-appreciated bands in the history of Rock & Roll.  Most certainly one that should be listened to (or be seen) live instead of hearing their studio recordings, if possible.  Even with having recruited a female lead singer to replace the uber-genius Lowell George, they still are a pleasant band to listen too.

Anyone looking for a place to enter the Little Feat Arena, you may want to start with 'Hoy-Hoy, Let It Roll, or Waiting for Columbus' to get a decent over-view of their sound. 

Any other Little Feat fans out there?

I've seen the bright lights of Memphis
And the Commodore Hotel
And underneath a street lamp
I met a Southern belle
Well she took me to the river
Where she cast her spell
And in that Southern moonlight
She sang a song so well!!

^^  My favorite of they're songs!!^^

I think I have they're complete collection!!

Great group!!  I seen them about ten times and I really enjoy they're music.

These young ones just don't know what good music is anymore!!  Wink

To me good music ended around 1978 with some hopeful spurts along the way!! Smiley

And you young ones don't have to say it because my Wife tells me all the time that I'm an Old Fart!!! Cheesy

lol, I've never heard of them, but I'm also more a fan of the older music than the new stuff as well Smiley

Out on the road late at night, seen my pretty Alice in every head light

I've never understood how the original version of that appealed to ANYONE and I drive a truck!  The Linda Ronstadt version is much better...
