Little Feat
Feats Dont Fail Me
Formed in 1969 and led by songwriter / guitarist Lowell George, Little Feat were a wildly eclectic band, bringing together strains of blues, R&B, country, and rock and roll. The band earned a cult following throughout their career among critics and musicians alike. Released in 1974, 'Feats Don't Fail Me Now' is the pinnacle of Little Feat as a group, showcasing each member at their finest. As it happens, the band is on the top of their writing game as well, with Bill Payne contributing the rollicking 'Oh Atlanta' and Paul Barrere turning in one of his best songs, the jazzy funk of 'Skin it Back.' The group used the album as the template for the rest of their career.
