Feats Don’t Fail Me Now
#LittleFeat #featsdon'tfailmenow #70smusic #blues #southernrock #swamprock #lowellgeorge #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky August 9, 1974 ~ My fav Little Feat album is released August 9, 1974. Bonnie Raitt and Emmylou Harris do some background vocal work and the horn work is by Tower of Power. It's that classic Feats blend of New Orleans funk, blues, boogie rock and country. (If you wanna feel real nice, just ask the Rock and Roll…

Richard Perry hand handled Carly's earlier albums and, in need of a breath of rootsy, swampy tinge, she chose to work with soon-to-become legendary Ted Templeman. He helped Carly blend her signature folk rock…

Little Feat: Down on the Farm (Warner Bros HS3345, 1979)
I bought this album entirely because I love Souled American’s cover of “Six Feet of Snow.” But it’s really not my deal at all. Slick cocaine-infused soft rock. And the picture on the jacket is creepy and weird. I know people respect Lowell George but this is not for me.

Dixie Chicken
January 25, 1973 ~ Little Feat release the album that should be in everyone's collection. It was the first album to feature the classic Little Feat lineup. Bonnie Bramlett and a young guitarist with a voice as smooth as silk (Bonnie Raitt) help out.

"Ride Like the Wind" is the debut single by American singer-songwriter #ChristopherCross. It was released in January 1980 as the lead single from his Grammy-winning 1979 self-titled debut album. It reached number two on the US charts for four consecutive weeks, behind "#CallMe" by #Blondie. On the album's inner sleeve, Christopher Cross dedicated this song to #LowellGeorge, formerly of the band #LittleFeat, who had died in 1979.

When I was in a good mood, probably still that high from my trivia team winning at the American Legion, I agreed to play at one of my neighbors’ holiday parties.
So, that means I have a little less than a week to work on a set list and get back to being good at rock guitar. After you know spending most of the last two years refining my country guitar skills.
So, my cheat code is to play all 60s and 70s country rock.#GratefulDead #LesPaul #ClassicRock #LittleFeat #TravelingWilburys

The night I became a fan of Little Feat, and Joe Cocker threw up on the stage.

Little Feat Wraps It Up
News this week that one of my favorite bands of all time, Little Feat, is retiring after a final tour brought back quite a few memories. The Last Farewell Tour will kick off next spring and run through two years, promoting the band and their latest album, Strike Up The Band.
As for those memories, in what seems like a lifetime ago when I was in college I had an assistantship in the theatre department’s scene shop. When touring acts came to campus we’d sometimes be assigned to help with load in and load out, and occasionally help run the show.
Little Feat was promoting what would become one of my favorite of their albums, Feats Don’t Fail Me Now, while opening for Joe Cocker, another of my favorites. I got the assignment to run follow spot for the gig. Up until that point I wasn’t familiar with Little Feat’s music, but that concert turned me on and I’ve been a fan ever since. They rocked the house as the warm up act and the crowd wasn’t ready for their set to end.
They certainly weren’t ready for what came next.
During the changeover a roadie came out and set two cases of Budweiser beer on the stage by the central microphone. Cocker’s band came on, tuned up a bit, the lights went down, the band kicked off the intro, at the conclusion of which Cocker was supposed to enter, which was my first cue of the set. The band was still using the intro from Cocker’s Mad Dogs and Englishmen days and all of the stage mechanics happened as planned, the crowd was pumped, but there was no Joe Cocker.
After a few moments delay we got the message to reset and we did it all again. This time Joe Cocker appeared on cue with a fifth of whiskey in his hands. He stumbled to the mic, and promptly threw up all over the stage. Yep, I had my follow spot lighting up the entire thing.
That was the end of the concert. Cocker was escorted offstage as the band played the Mad Dogs and Englishmen intro once again, then said good night and left the stage. The crowd was understandably upset with the headliner, but in the days that followed the talk was all about Little Feat’s music.
That was a moment to remember and a memory to laugh at certainly. But as well as I remember that I’ll never forget my introduction to Little Feat and their music. The band’s roster has changed throughout the years (most of the current members are in their 70’s) and the band’s songbook has journeyed its way through different American music genres. Their final album, Strike Up The Band, lands with a return to their original sound, albeit matured and nurtured from steps along the journey. It brings back memories.
There’s a brief, but good write up about the band’s retirement decision and final tour in Rolling Stone here.

I would argue that the band ceased to exist when Lowell George died. But, Ok.

1977年8月ロンドンの Little Feat「Cold, Cold, Cold」

今日は朝早くから、庭師さんが来てくれて伸び放題の家の周りの草木の剪定をしてくれた。例年5月の連休明けにやる作業なのだが、長年来てくれていた方が超高齢になって自分で運転して来てもらうのが危険なので、シルバー人材センターから紹介してもらったところ、人手が足りないようで、こんなに遅くなってしまった。とにかく暑くて危険なので、十分休憩を入れ水分補給を忘れないようにお願いした。午後から私も切り落とした枝や葉をビニール袋に詰めたり、雑草を抜いたりして参加。私の作業は3時間ほどだったが、暑くてかなり疲れた。庭師さんによれば、お仲間で熱中症になった方もすでに出ているという。明日も朝から残ったガレージ周りの作業 -
