LITTLE FEAT – ” Live at Manchester Free Trade Hall 1977 “

Posted: November 26, 2023 in MUSIC

Though Record Store Day only recently discovered the loping funk and slow-oozing soul of the late Lowell George’s Little Feet, Rhino has been making up for lost time with several seasons of tack-sharp live albums that appear like old-fashioned bootlegs. This time, the Southern-fried Angeleno outfit are caught in sticky, slippery, syrupy mode in the UK with their classic lineup (anything where George is joined by Paul Barrere and Bill Payne is “classic”) running through “All That You Dream,” “Time Loves a Hero,” and a jaunty “Dixie Chicken.”

Originally released as a part of the “Waiting for Columbus” (Super Deluxe Edition), this is the first official vinyl release of this complete live show recorded at Manchester Free Trade Hall on July 29th, 1977. This 3LP set finds the band’s classic line-up of Lowell George (Guitar, Vocals), Paul Barrere (Guitar, Vocals), Kenny Gradney (Bass), Richie Hayward (Drums, Vocals) Sam Clayton (Percussion, Vocals), and Bill Payne (Keyboards) rolling right through the night in a state of bliss.

Featuring material from their classic run of 70’s albums, this live show is an essential addition to any Little Feat collection.

Limited Edition of 7,300 copies on 3-LP 180-gram Black vinyl
