thanks Brit for helping to bring Little Feat to the masses! One of the most under appreciated and overlooked bands in the history of music
Singer, songwriter, guitarist and producer Lowell George at the top of his game. RIP.
The Best Live Album ever produced.
Yes, the greatest one!
Little Feat is one of underrated group. But this l, 『WAITING FOR COLUMBUS』, is one of the greatest live album. And Lowell George was one of the most talented musician in the world.
They are great!
I saw them do this !!
Um lm telling my age, but l'm so glad you are appreciating!!
The best live band ever. I have seen them in every possible setting from intimate to outdoor festival. I've seen them about a dozen times. Sadly I never got to see Lowell. They never disappoint.
Little Feat fans are true die hards. Once you get hooked, there's no going back.
This track is a great example of what Lowell George wanted to create, a musical "cracked mosaic" where the whole picture is visible but has interesting, almost random "cracks" in the sound and groove.
"Time Loves A Hero" is my favorite Little Feat song.
I will keep it in mind, thanks!
All Little Feat songs are my favorite songs. ;)
the trees she describes i bet.
Love that you have gone down this rabbit hole of such a talented band like Little Feat. One that also didn't always take themselves seriously.
Such a fun band. First reaction I’ve seen of yours and I absolutely loved your synopsis at the start. These guys take such a light hearted, chill approach to writing that I can vibe with. Instant good mood. Funky as hell. These are the kind of songs that make us all realize we’re not so different and can all get along when we’re cutting a rug on the dance floor. Looking forward to the rest of your reactions
Thanks for your reaction! Once you listen to the song over and over, you realize how gritty the story really is.
You have discovered the most talented American rock and roll band. I hope you feel the same way I did when hearing them for the first time in 1973. They’re no doubt my all time favorite band. Thanks for helping bring them to the forefront
Glad you enjoyed it!
I just wish you could have seen them in concert live, a truly spiritual experience, never have seen such talent on stage at one time,, RIP Lowell George
I got to see them in the early 90s when they were still in top form with Craig Fuller manning Lowell's vocals. They were amazing and I was just a couple rows from the stage. RIP Lowell, Paul and Richie, you're missed dearly.
I've said it before, and I'll say it again; when Little Feat hit the turntable, the party was on.
If you like Little Feat listen to The Bands farewell concert called The Last Waltz.
It was a video directed by Martin Scorsese back in the 70's
Their guest singer line up will blow you away
She said 'so flicking good'
Yep I was going to reference the band and the last waltz also. Man a lot they are so many similarities in the style and I think what they both have as much as anything else is the fact they they are so in time with each other and show that a great band is a different level than a group of wildly talented musicians. They all had so many hours of playing for practice, playing for money and playing for fun and getting to know each others timing and styles to the point of perfect predictions of each others improvisations. Those two bands were perfectly timed machines firing on all cylinders and really enjoying every moment of it until they put the instruments down. I think they are both vastly overlooked and under appreciated bands on the big scale. They are both in my top five most impressive bands for many reasons and have been my number one for long periods of time. But I will also admit after that long ass kissing comment my number one rock and roll band of all time is Lynard Skynard. But they all three remind me of each other in many facets and they are all very unique at the same time. ✌🏿
Sounds like New Orleans to me! I loved Little Feat in high school! I personally think that the beat music was in the 60s, 70s, and the early 80s. Then it got weird! LOL! We love you Brit!
Love Littel Feat...and love seeing new people discover them - enjoy! Brings me so back to college up in Oregon in the early 80s. Always on for the party. We danced the night away.
sounds like such a fun time!!!
Though not universally recognized back n the 70's, they were often referred to as "Your favorite band's favorite band," and were once proclaimed by no less than Jimmy Page as his favorite American band.
Little Feat should be inducted into The Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame.
Saw them live twice in their prime (when they were all alive). Orpheum Theater Boston in the 70's. They really rocked! Ahhhh the days of real effing music. Robert Palmer at Paul's Mall, Muddy Waters at the Paradise, etc.
Welcome to Feat Fandom beautiful.
Hello there lil Brit 😊
What a lovely warm review.
I love The Feat and you just nailed it.
A collage of sounds and the music transports you to a cool place.
Also if I may say without being too bold… you are just the most beautiful soul ! God bless.
Thank you for this. The music is eclectic and the lyrics are eccentric, the musicians are top notch. You would do well to continue on to track three, And then four, and so on. Great album start to finish.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Legendary live album from a criminally overlooked band. Thanks so much for bringing awareness to this great, great band.
One of the best commercialized live rock performances in my opinion. The best!!!
The whole album is pure good energy. If you get newer CD of it. It has bonus stuff.
"Check your oil tonight"?
Might be a reference too male and female sexual parts just too mention.
The Jello house is from the cover of an album called The Last Record Album (a play on the title of a 70's movie titled The Last Picture Show). Most all their album art was done by an artist who went by the name Neon Park.
Wrnt to see Little Feat and The Allman Brothers at the Santa Fe Downs in the 90s. Incredible day of music and we all wished Little Feat had played longer, they were. awesome. Needless to say, EVERYONE THERE had a ahem...good time. And i mean everyone. 😊
This is considered by many including me to be the greatest live album of all time ! They also had the Power Of Tower horn section on this. A perfect fit. The tune Rocket In My Pocket features them quite nicely.
Lowell George was just about the best thing out of So. Cal. When listening to Little Feat and just how tight that band was, always remember the magic of the 11/16 spark plug socket.
Love seeing live shows. Usually do not like recordings of live shows. Little Feat's Waiting for Columbus is the rare exception.
Everyone who loves LIttle Feat has excellent taste, and that's you, Britt. I missed the original lineup with Lowell George, but saw them a few times when they got back together. Listen to All That You Dream.
After Lowell died, I believe it was Bonnie Raitt who said- I miss Little Feat like I miss being 9 years old. Checking her oil is definitely a sexual reference
The name was a play on the fact the original lead singer and slide guitarist Lowell George had small feet. Misspelled as a hat tip to The Beatles.
Little Feat was idolized by leads from much bigger bands... from Jimmy Page (Led Zepplin) and Paul McCartney (The Beatles/Wings) to just about everyone in the Doobie Brothers. Their talent and creativity and ability to groove effortlessly was so solid and fun to watch live. Truly one of the most talented band ever.
Have loved the Feat since forever, and they remain one of the coolest live shows I ever saw.
that is awesome you got to see them live!
It's not just "Time Loves a Hero", it's the way those songs run together on that third side of the double album. Doesn't it go into "Spanish Moon"? The way they just oozed from one song to another on Waiting For Columbus was startling because it was flawless.
What Britt was talking about hinged on the overwhelming team effort on percussion. Have you ever heard a bunch of people banging on shit with such a union of purpose? Everything meshes.
Some of the cool artwork is by the artist Neon Park, my favorite artist. There is book of his artwork out there its wild. He was Little Feats album cover artist. My favorite artist and Little Feat is my favorite band. Love from New Hampshire
Bonnie was a good friend of Lowell Goerge. The singer & guitarist.
God bless you Britt for this one 🙏 Album, 8 track, cassette and the CD I still play today... Way ahead of their time! Spread the love Girl 🐶😎🇺🇸
Glad you enjoyed it!
Moon, waves & sandy beaches
I am a big, long-time Little Feat fan... you have understood and articulated the essence /effervescence of this group better than anyone else online... Thanks...!!!
I believe he said “my Juanita my sweet Chiquita
thanks for letting me know!
Myself and 5 or 6 of my friends were at two of the Lisner Auditorium shows. Fantastic. My twin brother and I are 67 and still rocking Little Feat!
Little Feat ....a great band that a lot of people did not know about. That always amazed me. Very original and unique sound. Glad you are listening and love your reaction
I’m so glad to see you- break down little feat. Neon Park was the artist and one of Lowell’s best friends - they were creating what they called a cartoon consciousness.. but the flipping band is anything but cartoon!!! Crazy!
Little Feat is DEFINITELY all pocket 👍🏻
Listening to these guys for half a century. My WFC (Waiting for Columbus) vinyl was played 1000's of times and the tunes still give me goosebumps. The members are some of the nicest people. Real musicians' musicians.
Little Feat is my all time favorite band period. Yes, even over Rush. ;)
Always liked Sam Clayton’s growling bass backup vocals actually loved all of them since 75 Sam also on the bongo’s
Brother of Merry Clayton.
Yaaaaaeesss!!!...(baritone)
.
..
It's like a trip to New Orleans the last day of Mardi Gras.
Bonnie Raitt's slide guitar playing was greatly influenced by vocalist/guitarist Lowell George. George played in one of Frank Zappa's early bands, and the drummer there remarked on Lowell's little feet - so that's where the name came from. I think substitute teacher Garvey would probably say Jonita.
The story I heard was that when Lowell was with Zappa he brought "Willin'" to him and Frank wanted nothing to do with it. Lowell said I'll do it with my own band. Frank replied that would be no little feat
@@kenennis6287 I read that Frank, who was anti-drugs, rejected the song because of its drug references. In an interview Frank said about Lowell "There's another guy who shouldn't do drugs." I probably read about Zappa's drummer, Jimmy Carl Black bugging Lowell about his little feet years ago in a guitar magazine article about the band, or a Lowell G. interview - but if you Google "little feat name origin" they tell the same story.
FEATS DON'T FAIL ME NOW! ..Thanks Brit! Needed some hope today! ..lol
Long time fan of Lowell George, a little back ground (don't know if you are familiar with) Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention Lowell played guitar for him. Frank knows talent when he sees it, as a matter of fact Steve Via was also in "the Mothers". Long story short before his untimely death Lowell produced, preformed on, co-wrote or other wise supported some of the best music to come out of the 70's.
Check out his solo album
Thanks I'll Eat it Here his rendition of Ricki Lee Jones 'Easy Money' is something you'll enjoy.
Certainly one of my favourite bands. always a go to album when I need to dance around the kitchen, cooking.
love that!
Waiting for Columbus is the greatest live and double album of all time. They were always appreciated by other bands but if you expose "regular" people to it...they are hooked!!! Thank you for reacting!!
One of the tightest, funkiest smooth bands I've ever seen live.
Also, the bassist, Ken Gradney is one of the coolest guys you could ever meet.
I love Sam Clayton's "Ohhhhhhh Yeaaaahhhhhh!!!" Raw and Baritone deep. Little Feat, legends the lot of 'em !!
It’s not about the video… that came decades later. It’s about the music.
Miss you Lowell George. RIP Rock and Roll dr. You are missed and not forgotten.
Yep, that animation style is great and was cutting edge back then, but it was a style inspired by Terry Gilliam’s animation work on Monty Python. Also, yes, this is one of the most fantastic albums.
I Do What Telephone Tells Me…One of my favorites…
Awesome Brit! Thank you for highlighting possibly the best rhythm section ever! Love this band x
The beginning, they are singing coming up to the stage...leading into this song..😊..very diverse, talented band. They stand the test of time.
PS. Their artist for album art....phenomenal...Neon Parks.
Also Neon Park, who did the covers for most of their releases, like the band referenced all kinds of stuff (risque too). Christopher Columbus discovered the tomato upon arriving at America, the tomato in a hammock on the WFC cover is waiting to be discovered, hence 'Waiting for Columbus'.
Down on The Farm from the Live From Neon Park double live album is excellent. Seriously funky acoustic slide guitar and a fun song. You should check it out too.
Spot check Billy got down on his hands and knees, he said ‘hey mamma, hey let me check your oil, alright.
and this is live! Little Feat!
Lowell Geoge was amazing and left us way to soon.
Hi Britt! I'm a new viewer, and I have to say, you "get" Little Feat extremely well. And by that, I mean I agree with you, haha. The soul, the pocket, the richness and brightness of the music just take me away.
Those videos were made within the last couple of years by LF fanatics. There are many Easter eggs in them--characters from album covers, etc. If you want to immerse in LF, I strongly suggest you listen to this album first--IMO these live recordings are better than the original album versions. Their records are full or innuendo. "He said hey honey, hey, let me check your oil, alright?" I don't know if you have ever checked oil with a dipstick, but I think you got it anyway. And he's not saying Jonitata the last time, he's singing Chiquita, which means honey or cutie, and a famous banana brand whose spokeswoman was a very sexy banana. "Juanita, my sweet chiquita, what are you up to?"
The lead singer and main songwriter--Lowell George--invented that smoky cajun/rock/jazz mix, and yeah, his voice is fantastic.
Thanks for having me along. 🙏😊
Just play the whole album, without stopping once. it's almost like being there...almost.
Britt you gotta keep in mind not all music videos are literal interpatations of the song's lyrics. When MTV was at its peak there were people that were music video directors. Record labels would give them crazy big budgets to make videos with. A lot of the times the music video directors vision for the video would have nothing to do with the song. Perfect example of a music video that makes fun of this concept is the video for "Oh , Sherrie" by Steve Perry from his solo album outside of Journey. The video opens with a medieval wedding and Steve dressed in a ridiculous costume. After a few minutes Steve can't take it , takes off the costume and walks off the set & the video actually begins. You should do that song & the official video to go with it & you'll understand what i'm talking about.
Saw these guys live at a small club in Eugene, OR back in the mid 80's. Awesome show.
I've seen them&ALWAYS opened w/This Freaky Funky Thang!!Love all of it!!
Great band and Lowell George was a special dude.
One of the best live albums ever made
Is this a New Orleans shuffle? It sure is funky as hell.
They are one of the all time great jam bands. If you ever get to see them live (I had the pleasure 3 times) it’s almost like watching some musical buddies getting together at one of their houses and just letting the music take them where it goes.
And, if you never thought you could get excited about a song that is basically about soup, you MUST next time listen to Rad Gumbo. You will imagine yourself at a Cajun cookout with amazing instrumentation, including the concertina (squeezebox). Warning: You will not sit still!!!
Lowell George, the heart and soul of Little Feat. Gone way too soon.
We catch Little Feat in concert twice a year if they are close to the center of the US. Live they are just as amazing as they were in 1977. Find them in concert.
that is awesome!
Wildly cool and fun-tastic 😉
Glad you enjoyed it!
Chacita!!!
Love Little Feat! ❤️😍💖
They are great!
Find reaction. I don't know why, out of the blue, this made me think of the live version of REO Speedwagon doing Roll With The Changes. I bet that would be a good reaction. But also, one of my favorite Little Feat songs is Willin'. It's not really satire of trucking songs which is a genre I love so much and I wish you would investigate, but it is so catchy and it's got great bars in it. And it will get under your skin for sure.
I will keep those in mind, thanks!
@@brittreacts Willin' by Little Feat still stands as a recommendation. But in terms of REO Speedwagon, the more that I think about it, you should listen to the audio in the studio cut keep on rolling. It's just brilliant and I promise you it will take you to church. But, on the other hand, they also had a massive hit that I know you would like from earlier on, and this one the studio cut is fantastic but the live version is Iconic. Golden Country. #RIP Gary.
I posted a screenshot of My Fatman in the bathtub in Goodsprings on Deviant art.😜
Hehe!!Early is best!!&Young Lady They just had Something that was Thier multi Grooved Songs!!
found this on the inter-webs lol. I think explains this song well.
Spotcheck Billy's a junkie who's in love with a prostitute - he's in a "squeeze play" on the "cheesy side of town" (i.e. he's in the quarter where the prostitutes and drug dealers ply their trade, and he only has enough cash in his pocket for one or the other.)
He'd rather spend his money on his favorite girl, who goes by the name "Juanita" - not only because he loves her, but also because he's concerned that his use of speedballs (a combination of heroin and cocaine) is endangering his life (regular use of speedballs often results in cardiac arrest).
"Juanita", however has another client this evening -- literally, an overweight man soaking in the bathtub of her rented-by-the-hour room.
One can imagine Billy standing in the hallway, "Juanita" with the door just cracked open, and telling him to go away, come back Monday or Tuesday (presumably the "slow nights" in the trade), she has a high-paying client with a bathing fetish and she doesn't need him hanging around, acting crazy and scaring him off.
Since Billy can't get time with his "Juanita" tonight he wants to save his money for Monday or Tuesday -- knowing that otherwise he'll just run out and blow it on speedballs that might just as likely kill him -- he's begging her to throw him a "dime" (a bag of weed) or a "line" of cocaine -- just enough to keep the monkey off his back for the night.
For me the killer line is "I hear you moan, I hear you moan, I hear you moan." That's Billy with his ear against the door listening to Juanita servicing her client for the evening.
Sexual jealousy, addiction, longing and love .. one of my all-time favorite songs and one of Little Feat's best.. check out the live version on "Waiting for Columbus". No doubt Lowell George was writing from personal experience .. what a talent. R.I.P.
PS, thank you so much!
Thanks for watching! Glad you enjoyed it!
A lot of the album art for Little Feat was done by the artist,Neon Park. I can't say if he did the art in the video, but it seems to use many of his images and done in his style (if that is a thing).
I call this album 'Tomato Lady'. A classic !!!
Great Album !!
I will keep that in mind, thanks!
My favorite Little Feat song is "Mighty Rad Gumbo"!
Fo sho, the best!!!
I will keep it in mind, thanks!
Hey Britt, to Quote Lowell, "All I'm looking for is some good clean fun, All I Really want Is Some Hit & Run" Hmmmm?
Do "Time Loves A Hero" and "All That You Dream" from the same album next...
Nice choice. My friend Peter H produced the animation for this video! (And he enjoyed your reaction)
That is so cool!
Yes he does say [can I check your oil
This was for sure "my song". Related to the chorus for sure. Another was "Side street swinger" and "Two trains 🚆 running"
I will keep those in mind, thanks!
@@brittreacts in my day, we would say "Groovy".?
Deep dive. Dang it, girl. I think it helps keep the music alive, so thanks for that.
I wish that feel good music would make a comeback.
A band I’ve NEVER seen anyone react to: Guadalcanal Diary, a band from the 80’s to early 90’s…specifically their song, “Cattleprod.” I’d be so stoked. 😆🎉
I will keep it in mind, thanks!
Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
Little Feat was the real deal. They were SO good! In that pocket, Britt. 🙂
they are great!
Some women you can be more direct with and just straight out ask if you can check their oil. Some like Juanita trade it for cash, others for a drink or two, some for just asking.
Later on American stole that rhythm and called the Bo Diddley beat. It has ties to the Caribbean, and Creole. If you have ever heard any New Orleans musicians: The Meters, Neville's, Dr. John, Prof. Longhair, etc... then it probably sounds familiar. Feat is in that genre by way of Los Angeles.
