With a little help from his band, Little Feat.

2. "Feats Don't Fail Me Now"...

The soundtrack to my first teen hippie road trips to sunny California in the mid-seventies.

3. "Mercenary Territory" from "Waiting For Columbus"

BEST...slide...guitar...solo...EVER.

One of the best "live" albums of all time, too.

4. The best

live album ever!

5. Lowell George ...

and his Sears Craftsman 9/16ths socket. He actually did have small feet, that's how the band wound up with that name -- supposedly, somebody started calling him that while he was in Zappa's band, The Mothers Of Invention, before he and Roy Estrada left to form Little Feat.

There's also a great story Paul Barrere (I believe it was) used to tell about Lowell George and cigarette lighters.

6. I'm willin' to give him a listen. Been a fan since their first LP,

the self-titled "Little Feat." Great album, the first(and not nearly as polished)version of "Willin'" is on it. Done in E instead of G it's got some great Ry Cooder slide work on it.

7. Ry played 'cos Lowell chewed up his hand

trying to start the gas-powered motor on a scale-model airplane. Same deal on "44 Blues/How Many More Years."
