Negative Positive
Title: Pay no attention to that guy
Review: Ignore Mr. Caps-Lock who thinks Robert Palmer or (shudder) Eddie Vedder would sing these classics and fine new songs better than Paul Barrere (Lowell George's sidekick since high school and frontman of the Feat since their 1988 reunion), co-founder Bill Payne, the inimitable Sam Clayton, or the first lady of Little Feat, Shaun Murphy. This band is at the peak of its musical prowess despite the loss of the brilliant Lowell George way back in 1979. If you must live in the past, don't miss the reissued Waiting For Columbus with lots of unrelased stuff. If you are a little more open minded get Ripe & Raw Tomatoes with a fine selection of Lowell-era and post-Lowell live cuts. If you want to hear one of the best bands in the business as they are today, semi-acoustic (full rhythm section and keyboards but with acoustic guitars & mandolin instead of electrics) then don't miss this one!
