Re: Little Feat

Coming next is what many people consider the "Must Have" Little Feat record, Dixie Chicken. Lowell George was at his best on this record, the band had finally found their "Sound", and pretty much every LF album after this one had the stamp of Dixie Chicken on it. It's a toss up for me, between this one and the next one, but I guess if you were new to the band and wanted the best place to start, this is the album for you. Play this one a few times, you really have to LF is a band that grows on you with time, so patience is going to pay off for sure. Recorded in 1973 Dixie Chicken deserves a place on your table.:D

Re: Little Feat

Looks like it's just you and me Kid...:lmao:

Little Feat is a fun band, totally unique sounding as well, which when you think of it is an accomplishment. Kind of sad that so few people even acknowledge their existence in here, but I will carry by myself if necessary at least to the end of my CD collection, which is about 4 more albums.:hab:

Re: Little Feat

Well, well, well...another Little Feat fan just showed up...

Let me pull up a chair and sit a bit....

I'm a big fan of the Lowell George, Paul Barrere, Fred Tackett and the rest of the band. Even after Lowell George died, the band continued to put out good albums and put on great concerts. I seen them in concert once in the early/mid 90's and once in 2003(?). I really enjoy their whole body of work.

My favorite album is probably ''Feats Don't Fail Me Now'', followed by ''Dixie Chicken'', ''Salin' Shoes'' and ''Down On The Farm''

Re: Little Feat

Nice to have another "Discerning" fan of Little Feat in here GM.:tup:

I agree with you about "Feats Don't Fail Me Now", it's my pick of the litter as well.

Re: Little Feat

The only Little Feat song I know from memory is the outstanding "Time Loves A Hero", but I'm sure I'd recognize more from the radio if I heard them.

I recall them sounding very much like The Band (who I liked a lot back then).

Re: Little Feat

I never thought of that comparison Dave, musicianship they are both top notch, if I thought about it, Little Feat is a Southern Rock/Blues version of the Band...that works for me.

And thanks for stopping by the Chicken Shack...:grinthumb

Re: Little Feat

Another big fan of The Feat here...one of the best "Southern Rock" bands (or bands in general) of all time)..Lowell George was a musical genius. Most people don't know that he was a member of Frank Zappa's Mothers of Invention.

One of my favorite performances of there's was the Midnight Special episode w/ special guests Bonnie Riatt and Emmylou Harris. Check it out...
