Little Feat- Live in Holland 1976

(1/1)

James Edward:
If you're looking for an alternative to 'Waiting For Columbus', here it is...
Just released, it's Little Feat together and pretty much at their peak. The CD also comes with a DVD performance.
The sound is pretty good, a touch warmer than 'Waiting', but by no means audiophile quality. I would guess an audio writer would give it 3/5 for sound and 4.5/5 for the music.
Good stuff.

Triode Pete:
Cool! Love Little Feat!

Saw them in 1977 at Siena College with Lowell George when "Waiting for Columbus" was getting ready to be released... Saw them a couple times after without Lowell... not really the same... but still good... One summer when visiting my parents upstate, there was a "free" Riverside concert (in a huge courtyard with open bars) with them right near the Hudson River in downtown Albany, NY... I was drinking tap beers with Bill Payne, Paul Barrere & Fred Tackett afterwards... nice guys!

"Waiting for Columbus" is an excellent recording for a Live Album... "Dixie Chicken" is a classic with the "Tower of Power" horn section... Nice dynamics on a horn system!

Cheers,
Pete
