Little Feat
Live Performance of 'Dixie Chicken' by Little Feat at Rainbow Theatre, London
In the summer of 1977, Little Feat was riding high on their unique blend of rock, blues, and country, with their beloved album 'Dixie Chicken' released just a few years prior in 1973. By the time of this live recording at the Rainbow Theatre in London, the band was at a pivotal moment, showcasing both their musical prowess and tight-knit chemistry on stage. The track 'Dixie Chicken,' written by the late Lowell George and Martin Kibbee, became a staple in their concerts, illustrating their rich Southern rock influences. Interestingly, this performance came just before the release of their highly regarded live album 'Waiting for Columbus' in 1978, which would culminate in the broader recognition of their sound. Fans often cite this era as a high point, thanks to Paul Barrere’s captivating lead vocals and the band’s magnetic stage presence.
