All these years, I've seen their records in used buns since... gosh, 1980 or so I guess, when I got enough autonomy to escape on my bike to go places and see things and whatever, I digress. But since I was not familiar with them, for some reason I didn't buy their records. Funny, I bought all sorts of other things I was unfamiliar with, thus becoming familiar... but for some reason I never bought any of the Little Feat records.
And that's a good thing. Because now I get to hear all their stuff for the first time! Come to think of it, some of the riffs in this seem familiar ; I bet it got some airplay at some point...
I don't remember getting a huge amount of airplay, but it may have on a more current radio market. The original band with Lowell George was my favorite but he disbanded, and died, in '79. They did reform and have since gone through many configurations. They've had a lot of hits and each version of the band brought a little different flavor but did stay with a familiar sound. George started out when Zappa didn't hire him (many stories why) and since many of the members have been associated with big name groups. They're still touring today but I haven't heard anything notable in quite a few years, but that just may be me.
