Little Feat

During the summer of 1977, Little Feat was riding high on the success of their fifth studio album, 'Feats Don't Fail Me Now,' released just a year earlier. This period marked a transformative chapter for the band as they deftly blended rock, blues, and funk into a signature sound that resonated deeply with fans. The performance of 'Fat Man in the Bathtub' at Lisner Auditorium showcases their dynamic live energy, rooted in the creative genius of Lowell George, who penned the song. Interestingly, this live recording later found its way to 'Waiting for Columbus,' a celebrated live album released in 1988 that captured their on-stage charisma. It's fascinating how this particular show resonates within the legacy of Little Feat, as it reflects their journey at a time when they were steadily evolving into a powerful live act, laying the groundwork for their enduring influence in rock music.
