@@spikespa5208 I have one of the original pressings of the LP, a CD version as well. Used to have a cassette of it! I'm trying to decide which of my two children will receive them in the will.

I saw them live in 1978 at the Royal Oak Music Theater just North of Detroit, Michigan to support this release. What an incredible performance !!!

[@act.13.41]

I'm 65 now and this brings back so many great memories. I look at the younger generation and keep wondering what the hell happened to them? I just figured it out. They didn't grow up listening to this. We had so many talented artists back then. They didn't have Auto-Tune. They sang. They got on stage and did it live. We had bands like Little Feat, Rory Gallagher and others who were better live than in the studio. They just knew how to put on a show. I remember an opening act (I won't name them out of respect) not showing up and we had about 65,000 fans waiting. Billy Gibbons walked out on stage and said one of their members was sick and they would not be there, but not to worry, because ZZTop would make up for it. They played for 2 hours. Billy said, hey y'all, nature calls. Give us a few minutes and we will be right back, so don't go anywhere. A few minutes later ZZTop was back on the stage and played another 2 hours. At the end, Billy asked if everyone felt they got their money's worth? Standing ovation! "Then we did our job! Thank you all and good night." What a show! Who would do that nowadays?

Here here! Rock n Roll on and on... I'm 62 and was blessed to grow up in Hawaii 🤗😉I starred going to concerts in Diamond Head Crater at 11 yrs old. Saw Billy Preston who stayed on to jam with Chicago, Crosby Stills Nash and Young, Allman Brothers and on and on. I saw Little Feat at the University of Hawaii. They were out of tickets so we sat on their U-Haul and had front row seats! I could go on but yes I know we're so very blessed and so grateful to have the best of the best growing up. Thank you loving powers that be for my awesome gift of the universal language of music! Eternally grateful 🙏 So many kindred spirits from our generation. Got a funny story, I dated a beautiful man who was a carpenter and he worked for his brother in law who was a contractor. We lived in Palm Desert and they went out of town for work (L.A.). His Bro in Laws parents lived in San Fernando Valley, their house needed repairs so they were there on a Halloween weekend. They had long hair of course and BiL put on a cape and hid in the bushes, when he heard some trick or treaters he jumped out and then one of them says "run for it! It's a Hippie! When I heard about this I fell out. Poor guy, didn't know what a Hippie is. Many blessings! ✌️

[@DHatch-wl8tl]

I was working at a glass shop and a customer had a guitar string bracelet. I play some and she said she is a Little Feat maniac. Lowell George broke a string and gave it to her and she made a bracelet form it. WOW and I was speachless.

[@bertjones3010]

Unfortunately I'd be totally deaf instead of just hard of hearing. Saw ZZ twice, a four song intro act in 1970, and a full concert mid 70s after which my ears rang for three days

I say that on a daily basis especially listening to stations who pride themselves on any kind of mix of rock. Underrated. Seen them live in New haven ct a few years back what a blessing. Best free concert I've ever seen and never ever will forget them get up there and perform set after set flawlessly for years. July 14th 2001. Been a fan since. Was only 11.

Seen the 2022 tour in Lexington KY and it was by far the best concert I've seen in the last 30 years. Phenomenal absolutely Phenomenal. The Lexington Opera House is gorgeous and they rocked it for almost 3 hour's. Unbelievable So glad I got an opportunity to see these guys again. They are in their 70"s and rocked it like teenager's.

[@davidrinesmith1778]

I live nearby there and missed the Little Feat Bus... thanks for sharing ~

[@BWThompsonAZ]

I saw them several times during the 70's and they were all fantastic musicians. But I never heard anyone tickle the ivories like Bill Payne. What a band!

[@MichaelWaggoner-c1n]

Saw this tour in 1977, Fox Theater, St. Louis, but not for these recording sessions. Became an instant fan! Opened EVERY concert with Lowell George with this song. Cried like a baby when he passed the day after my birthday in 1979 😢

[@twentyeightmcd]

Sooooooo many memories of this tune. So much meaning for me. The whole album is just fan-friggin-tastic! The synth sounds, jsut awesome. I used to play this one on 11.

[@shays01]

The band has changed personnel (three main characters having left this mortal coil), but they're still kicking ass. Sam Clayton will have a solo album coming out in the spring of 2024 (with Feat as his main back up band) and the full band is in the studio working on new material. Support them. Go see them when they come to a town near you

[@msserenadawn]

This is the music of my childhood. I was born in 76, I clearly remember this record playing in our living room nonstop . Good memories

[@markmoriarty7388]

Back in the 1970s I was friends with the guys in Tower of Power. I remember Mimi Castillo and Doc Kupka telling me some hair raising stories about life on the road with Liittle Feat. This effort culminated in the live album Waiting for Columbus. When I first heard the album in 1978 I believe, I thought the overall sound quality to be very strong and it truly was. Little Feat were one of my favorite bands. However there was a good ammount of studio overdubs on the album. I guess they were all having a real GOOD tme on the road. In Europe no less!

[@FeatnikSF]

Warren Dewey was the sound engineer in the editing process with Lowell and he had a few hair raising stories to tell as well. Wish I could remember details. Too late now, he passed away a few years ago.

[@gunndish]

And of course you have rock solid proof of these alleged "studio overdubs" you speak of? I've been going to Feat concerts since the beginning of time ... like when Noah was still an apprentice carpenter's mate ... suffice it to say, the beginning ... regardless ... one thing the Feats never needed was recorded studio overdubs. I'll forgive you this one time on this gross indiscretion ... however, from this day forward should you haplessly defile the greatest American band EVER ... I shall have to biblically smite thee! OBTW ... Tower of Power rocks!

[@marscruz]

@@gunndish A buddy of mine had a house on C Street in Hayward back in the early 70's. Tower of Power regularly played in a popular club with a big stage just south of there on Mission Boulevard in Hayward back then. I can't remember the name of it. It was very crowded and there was some fine music happening back then. ToP was very potent with all that huge horn POWER. Who needs amps with all that brass on tap?

[@gunndish]

@@marscruz Epic horns! Wish I could have seen TOP back in their early days. Several years ago they were touring and came to town ... I was right up front!

[@marscruz]

@@gunndish Wish I would have seen LF when Lowell was still kicking. He had MASSIVE chops, both writing and playing.

There is a new box set with all of the recordings from the 4 (?) shows. Great job on the whole project Jason Jones at Rhino. Sounds incredible

[@danielwilliams1921]

Saw the Feat open for the Stones in Stuttgart, 1975. They blew away the Stones, and I’m a BIG Stones fan!

[@Ricky-z3g]

....saw the Rolling Stones in 1975 in Fort Collins, Colorado....Billy Preston played with them....Charlie Daniels and Chacka Kahn opened for them.....from what I remembered. That is...

Man ,these dudes were cutting edge, ahead of their time. Bring it back...

[@bertjones3010]

They've tried to keep it alive but it died the day Lowell left.

[@RichardCurry-z1e]

I agree with comment below......Feat were damn fine musicians but Lowell George, Richie Hayward, even Craig Fuller after Lowell passed....these guys made the Feat sound....along with Paul/Fred and Bill Payne. They still rocked live in the 80's and early 90's, but that was about it. Imagine, Feat performing on TV or live, and having Linda Ronstadt or Emmylou Harris show up and handle backing vocals.....we didn't know how good we had it musically.......it's all turned to shit over the years.....music, that is.

[@Zarzak]

I've never heard this song in my 38 wonderful years existing on this lil space rock we call Earth, until recently....And it's this sort of beautiful energy that makes me feel alive, as we feel many talented human beings collaborate to channel a divine abstraction we call "music" to invoke a feeling that calls to our spirit to "move and groove". As a less intense note; The "sound" of this bass is absolutely fat, smooth, and sexy. Like a perfect spoonful of peanut butter. lol. Take care, thanks for reading friend. Hope you're well.

[@bobschenkel7921]

Got to see Lowell with the boys back on 10/1/78, at the University of New Hampshire, and it was one of the best musical nights of my life. Saw Feat about ten times after, but that first show was special. Even funny at times. Like when they started singing "Don't Bogart That Joint", and about twenty J's went flying up on to the stage. And were quickly gathered up by the crew, and saved for later. Feat was a great, great band, and this video was a fun representation of their style and musical mastery.

[@0325JAMES]

[@jim8252]

Best live album ever. Was there at Lisner and it was fantastic. George was the man! Sammy C!!!!

[@lbowsk]

LF is my fave band. This album is why. I was in HS just outside of DC when this was recorded. The only station that played them was of course, WHFS. The OLD HFS on 102.3. Damian, Weasel, Bob, etc. I was a bit crushed when I learned that Lowell went back and overdubbed the live album and added some "polish" to his solos and voice. Here I thought they were just that damn amazing right off the cuff. They WERE, I heard em, but...

[@ezekielbrockmann114]

It may not be a popular opinion, but I think the best thing Frank Zappa ever did for music was kicking Lowell George outta the Mothers of Invention.

[@justinbrantley4252]

Frank told Lowell that 'Willin' was,a drug song and Frank was very anti drug. Frank had crazy shows though. Flo and Eddie included.
