Most criminally underrated band in Rock n' Roll
In '78 Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin) was asked who is the greatest band (at that time); he said LITTLE FEAT!!! High praise & very true!
yes, but
not underrated by any dancer who has seen them live
Not in my circles.
AGREED SO ARGUABLY CRIMINALLY LITERALLY SHOCKINGLY OVERRATED
Lowell was insanely talented and unfortunately dead way too young I believed that he and Bonnie would have married and can you imagine the children!
Lord - Emmylou and Bonnie are GORGEOUS!
I just love this 100%, but every time I watch it, I think, how much better it would have been if Emmylou and Bonnie's mic was on. I'm cryin' now.
too true. they look so young and talented but i could not hear a thing from them. nothing.
Does the tech exist that can extract from the recording to amplify Emmylou & Bonnie's voices?
Right? and to see Emmylou clog dancing to it would be awesome
It would be even better if the girls had 2 mikes and a sound mixer doing his job.
I thought that I went deaf.
I've always loved Willie Nelson's comment about Emmylou:
There are two kinds of men in this world-those who are in love with Emmylou Harris, and those who haven't met her yet.
Must have been tough to cut this great tune short for TV, since Feat used to really extend it out in concert... Wish Lowell had taken better care of himself, because this talented dude is sorely missed... RIP.
I was wondering why they skipped the second verse & chorus...
Only one Lowell George and Little Feat. That's rock and roll folks. That's rock and roll.
A Parrot, A Parrot. Awwwe!. #Grasshopper.
I bought a pitcher of beer in a little tavern in downtown Athens, Ga, something like four decades ago. The place was packed, so I asked this pretty red-head if I could sit down with her. We talking a little while about various bullshit. She was a normal person. I too was an unknown guitar player around town; something to talk about. Then she got up to go behind the microphone with her guitar. I was pleasantly surprised to know she was the act. Times were different then. Music was free, easy, and dominated our culture, up close and personal. She was, in fact, Bonnie Rait before she was a big international star. I stayed an unkown. A wonderful memory.
Isn't that the truth?!! Yes indeed, free, easy, the constant background sound of our lives, in it and of it. Times were different then & surely "better" in our/my eyes in many ways.
Have lived many places. I discoverd I like little taverns/bars/whatever and the little "unknown" bands or artists. Some failed, some went on to be very well known. But the atmosphere was awesome. And most of those I met really prefer the small place and the interaction. NOT like concerts. At damn near 70, I still like the little venues. And ... some of the "big" names still sneak out after the big show to tiny local places.
She's so genuine. Mary Chapin Carpenter is a little cool since she got 'GROUPIES'. But enjoyed more than one chat with her at KramerBooks in DC.
Four decades ago, Bonnie Raitt had released six albums and was recording her seventh (The Glow, 1979).
Bonnie Raitt (1971)
Give It Up (1972)
Takin' My Time (1973)
Streetlights (1974)
Home Plate (1975)
Sweet Forgiveness (1977)
Maybe it happened five decades ago.
Had to be some time around the time I started running sound in Athens. I’m still there doing it after all these years. Good times!
how good you have to be to have Bonnie and Emmylou sing backup? I crushed on Bonnie for years.
Bonnie was SEXY as
🔥💨🔥💨🔥💨
🧨💥🧨💥🧨💥
at this time 😱😳😱
I still do
I bet I crushed on her before you, so take your turn! Hehe.
When Lowell George died, I wept. He is the only musician I ever cried over. What a great voice and a great performer. I miss him still.
Lowell & Linda Rondstadt performed together & were in love, all saying they were made for each other. Emmylou & Gram Parsons the same, were in love & were the perfect couple.
No meat dresses, no backup dancers, no light show, just a bunch of hugely talented musicians making awesome music!
What's a meat dress?
@@cmgordon12345Lady GaGa outfit.
That conga player’s overalls, tho…
We got overalls.✌️😎
You have Bonnie Raitt and Emmylou backing you....you know you've made it.Classic rock at its best
Maybe a sync issue but it didn’t look like Emmylou knew the lyrics.
Squandered. Couldn't hear them at all.
I didn't even hear them singing though.
I’d be sweating bullets.
@@HHHAAA111222both sang on multiple songs for the Feats on multiple albums. She knew the lyrics.
What a band, they style blended like few others; shuffle, New Orleans, Country, jazz rock (just to mention a few) but always Littel Feat. An achievement in it's own right. I really miss the lineup we hear here.
One of the greatest bands ever😀😀💜
They were Truly Special!
However, BILL PAYNE has become surrounded with some Suberb #Musicians and LITTLE FEAT is back on the #TourCircuit and sounding #AMAZINGLY like the #Original Line-Up...
Check Them Out, you will be IMPRESSED, too!!!
Flawless. Every person on that stage is wildly talented. It fills me with awe, every time I hear the Feat.
When the FEAT come on I stop what I am doing and my feet start moving
I am a horn player or was a when you add the tower of power to the mix Lord have mercy on my soul
indeedy. Chi Blues level stuff(S)
or emm Doobie Bros (Santa Barbara live) :P
used to love staying up to watch midnight special. ✌
Best decade for music. EVER!
Hello Christine, how are things going with you?
I just saw and felt my momma there.
Thanks Girls. 🎉
Saw them at the Rainbow Theater in London in 1977 with the Tower Of Power Horn Section. I was hooked straight away. Love them.
Hello Lynda, How are you doing?
Hello Lynda how are you doing hope you’re having a great time with your family may God bless you and your family
Omg
I wish I was there. I never saw them
I got into them later in life. 😢
It's amazing how JoJo brought more people here to listen to this song,this splendid song.
no one cares for a kids cartoon here, they only come to troll
@@rafael16759 shut up.
I saw Bonnie Raitt and John Prime in California years ago, it was magic.
Just brilliant (shame that Emmylou and Bonnie can't be heard!).
the mix is definitely not optimal
Lowell had the most beautiful phrasing in his voice. And man he could play that axe. Such a talent, always remembered
Greatest example of highly underrated musicians
Little feat was and remains an unappreciated band; however, bonnie , lowell & emmylou were highly regarded musicians.
@@paulfarrehi4200 ... and stil are
I have huge faith, based on experience, that
Little Feat was not underrated by any dancer who saw them live
with room to move
I was in a small club in New Orleans the first time I heard this. Fifty people started dancing to a band from Cali! Yep. I was one of them.
Little Feat never got their fair share. They were way out there ! Country, Pop, Rock, Funk, Jazz...What more do you want ?
Just heard this superb song covered at Schooner's Wharf, Key West. Simply had to find it. Awesome!
Hello Jo, how are things going with you?
I'd like to go back in time! I love this song.
sadly we only caught a glimpse of the talent and potential of Little Feat, the mark they made in the 70's upon our music should be remembered and cherished.
Little Feat was still going strong decades after Lowell George left the planet
not saying Lowell George's unique talents weren't missed, but
the band was still a great dance band with a lot of great material
Wow, this brings back memories of the early 80s when my older Cousin introduced me to this band...I fell in love with their music!!!
I have loved them since I was a tike
LOVE this cut!!! When musicians actually played instruments!! Good stuff!
Hello Katherine, how are things going with you?
Hello Katherine how are you doing hope you’re having a great time with your family may God bless you and your family
Great song from my 20s when people loved each other and the main goal was to have a good time. With all the challenges we face as we crawl out of the Covid crisis, it would benefit everyone to hold each other's hand instead of become consumed with the negative. All these performers have a unique style that blend into an incredible tune that soothes the soul.
Hello Judith, how are things going with you?
Midnight Special was a great show. I was maybe 6 or 7 and i recall being up watchingbwith my older cousin who was babysitting me and it strikes me as the best rock era in my humble opion. Born in 65 and my young momma have some great taste in music. That influenced me in a ton of ways. Yes it was rocks golden era even though there was some shitty stuff....the real soulful non computerized music was 100 times better than most of todays music. Its hard to listen to the radio these days. The blues based guitar rock of the era is hands down the best. Ask most 20 yr olds what they listen too and they may mention some newer artists but tgat playlist is.littlered with late 60s and 70s rock and roll physcodelia...ear candy for you mind AND body. All 3 of my kids listen to that era predominately. Although influence by what they heard growing up...when they flew the coop they took that musical taste with them. The folks had real talent back then. Not easy to fake it and Little Feat is just one example of that beautiful talent.
First time I heard Little Feat was in 1973 maybe 74. Have been a fan ever since. Have their music on album, cassette, or cd's. Could have seen them with Lowell George but x-wife not want to go the concert. Lowell passed away a few months later,
Could hear them all the time on the radio back in New York. Moved to Kansas City, Mo. would only hear them played if they were coming to town. or it was Lowell Georges birthday. I found out they were not on the play list, So much for classic rock in KCMO,
Moved to Tulsa.OK, same thing as MO.. The people out here have no idea of what they have missed
I'm a 45 year old bass player and I've played with probably a dozen guys over the years ten to fifteen years older than I was who would tear up when they talked about Lowell George.
Love me some Little Feat. This song and "Fat Man In The Bathtub" are my two favs. Still have their albums on vinyl. Peace.
Bonnie and Emmylou......sounding great and looking good..............
It's such a shame Lowell died in '79, feels like he was on the cusp of superstardom. I was born in '71 so a child of the '80s music scene & I can very easily imagine Lowell becoming a mega-star in the '80s like Mellencamp, Tom Petty, Billy Joel or Springsteen. He just had "it" ..that special magnetism that draws people's eyes & ears #RIPLegend #LittleFeat
World class musicians like these make my soul fly.
ANd the incredibly fabulous - Mr. Jesse Winchester!!
Hello Linda, how are things going with you?
The ever lovely Bonnie Raitt... Wish I grew up back in those days, instead of, y'know, this madness.
"In that southern Moonlight, She sang her song so well".....
Are you telling me that this song provides a reference to a gangster cat fanatic who has the ability to shrink objects?
I just met kingfish Christone, Walter trout and Eric gales in small little venues. I’m sure they will all climb the mountain . Walter has been on top for a while now and I just loved his playing with john Mayall and now by himself. Not saying he met Bonnie or not but things happen I once met Santana’s drummer in a guitar center. He gave me change for a dollar so I could buy my daughter a coke. In fact he didn’t have change he just bought the coke, his name was Dennis Chambers played with Carlos before his wife took over
@@spankystrat49 Look, I'd hate to burst your bubble but here's what the person above was talking about.
There's a Japanese comic series called JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. It's very famous even outside of Japan. The author is a huge fan of western culture and likes to reference them in his work, most notably, songs and bands. He would name the characters and their abilities after them. For example, there's an ability called Bohemian Rhapsody and obviously, it was named after the song. Well you see, Little Feet just so happens to be referenced by the author too. One of the bad guys of the Italian Mafia in the series has an ability called Little Feet that could shrink people.
If you still don't understand, go to the comment section of Killer Queen, Another One Bites the Dust and Sheer Heart Attack.
I hope my explanation helps.
@@carlneoh5843tl;dr weeb stuff
Where do I start? Little Feat defined our lives in college. On my 21st birthday we rocked out all night to an incredible rendition of Happy Birthday plus Dixie Chicken. I love the combination of incredible talent in this version of the iconic song.
Great memories on my 21th birthday when a house band rocked this song with "Happy Birthday" .....margaritas flowing and no end to the fun times.
Hello Judith, How are you doing?
great band back in the day lot of good time listening to them !
And to today
God, Emmylou Harris was a beauty queen in her day, as many of us so clearly remember. Lowell George had only two years to live when this was filmed, he never made it into the '80s. One of the real geniuses of rock'n'roll, right up there with Hendrix and Page.
"In her day"???? She's more beautiful than ever.
@@sarahalexander3170 HELLO!
Willie Nelson said it best- “There are two kinds of men. Those who are in love with Emmylou Harris, and those who haven’t met her.”
@@sarahalexander3170 this is so true; Emmylou's hair is grey now & (unlike most) she has gotten more beautiful through the years; a STUNNING BEAUTY!
Pages favorite American band
Lowell, Bonnie and Emmylou together is like royalty walking step by step…
I was 13 and loved the world of this! Staying up late seeing live the music i heard around my aunt and uncles house
As a teen I was a Skynyrd freak, and after the plane crash, I bought Thanks, I'll Eat It Here...Lowell's masterpiece. I listened to it over and over. Then, not long after the release, he too was gone.
Hello Cathy, how are things going with you?
Hello Cathy how are you doing hope you’re having a great time with your family may God bless you and your family
Those were the times when Little Feat showed the musician´s world what a real groove was - and still is. Great band.
A seminal song by one of the top U.S. bands. Lowell George was one of the best songwriters, and slide players of all time. A rare talent!
How I miss this guy. No other voice like it. 77 was a very good year
with a lot of great memories this being one of the best. You are missed
Lowell but never never forgotten. Can't beat the Feat.
Hello Sandy, How are you doing?
I LOVE LITTLE FEAT, and I loved Lowell George's musicality. Long Live Little Feat.
The girls look great. Esp. Bonnie. I had no idea. Wish we could hear them sing on this.
These wimin jest get better and better
@@genecraig9811 I KNOW YOUR POST IS FROM 9YEARS AGO ..THIS STILL IS AHAEAD OF OUR TIME! TAKE CARE BROTHER!
I saw Little Feat and Bonnie Raitt in Jackson Ms. on this 1977 tour. One of the best shows I have ever seen because Lowell George was on fire that night. He came on stage with Bonnie for about 20 minutes and played. Bonnie came on for Little Feat's 30 minute encore and they had a duel slide guitar battle that was SO GOOD. Just a great show.
+1stSaintsFan so jealous. Lowell George and Bonnie Raitt playing slide guitar. MAN AWESOME
+1stSaintsFan Lowell taught her to play the slide.. Just listen to anything she plays slide on, and you can hear Lowell. It's all we have left of him now!. His slide and voice, and timing, and arrangements are what made Little Feat the incredible band they were. Not to disparage Richie, Payne and the rest of the band members, but they just couldn't make Little Feat what it was when George was in front!
Have to disagree - Bonnie was playing long before she met Lowell (at least I think). Bonnie was playing with a long list of blues greats when she was just a teenager ....
how bout High Steppers and Fingers, jackson,ms !!
Jelouse
One of the most Bad-Ass bands ever! Loved them so much.
Real musicians and not machines. Yeah I remember what that was like. Wow
Saw them three times in my life {all shows in Louisville ,Kentucky } , every time I saw them they just blew my mind. the first time I saw them was at Coyote's in Louisville{ a place known for horrible sound} ,35th anniversary tour and they just ripped the roof off the place , left us begging for more . One of best sounding shows I ever saw at that venue...... what a party . Big big fun . God bless that band.
the amount of horrible sounding shows ive seen at coyotes is staggering ha ha
Bonnie & Emmylou still performing and killing it. Beautiful ladies! 😍
Always loved this song. These great singers make it even better.
To have Emmylou Harris and Bonnie Raitt as backing singers.....!
Serious talent here. Am I gettin' old or was music just plain better back in the day?
Musis was better back then. It came from the soul. Not synthesized crap. This was pure talent!
You aint wrong,Brother!
Both! In both of our cases!
Maybe a little of both, Barbara Lee.
Barbara Lee 1) no. 2) yes it was
What an incredible band, such a tight fit and so funky. Love dancing to these, can go all night.
Feet tapping is mandatory. What a great band.
Hello Jean, how are things going with you?
Should I hit that replay button .... oh yes I think I’ll hit that replay button and play it a lot louder this time 👍
Cool thing is, Emmylou Harris is still friends with Little Feat all these years later. I saw them in 2009 playing at the Hardly Strictly Bluegrass fest, and I'm pretty sure it was Emmylou who got them into that gig. They actually played at the same time as her on a different stage, and at one point they urged the crowd to make a lot of noise so the people over at Emmylou's concert could hear us. The Feat is still badass and still out there doing great jam music.
An amazing gem. Great Gratitude for having this!
Hello Ellen, how are things going with you?
Oh my my. I love this song. Good old southern rock and roll. Not like the musics we have today. They sucks!!!!
it is not possible to sit still to such wonderful music--get up and dance.
Little Feat is not Little Feat without Lowell George. He was their heart and soul. What a loss for a band and the world.
you've just got to LOVE THIS!!! how amazing...we forget sometimes what a great band Little Feat is...and these 2 beautiful woman of the music world!!!
I think I've had a crush on one of those backup singers for over 40 years.
One of "those " backup singers?? From what planet have you just arrived. Come on, we're talking Ms Emmylou Harris and Ms Bonnie Raitt! Two of our finest singer/songwriters for the ages. I mean, really, dude, REALLY?
flooberbloob
I think he knows exactly who those singers are.After all he did say 40 yrs. In this video they were backup singers which is in some ways more important than lead singers.Backup singers like rhythm guitar players are all part of the whole wonderful thing and sometimes under appreciated
I am well aware of rhythm players and backing vocalists. Not the point.
flooberbloob
the point is clear as day..you'll get it if you try a little harder. my first sentence is a big clue
I disagree with your first sentence.
OMGOSH look how young Bonnie+Emmy Lou still as Beautiful as can be today Love the song✌💙
Two gals who have continued to tour the country bring good music to everyone. They play for hours after everyone else is pooped. They are both like living dynamos and a tribute to professional musicians.
Tim Cantrell
**"it just keeps unspooling." That's an awesome way to put it!*
lol...I even looked young then....this is priceless footage... excellent...but don't bogart that joint my friend..
Taj Mahal American music
You are right on !
Today, June 29, 2019, makes 40 years that we lost the great Lowell George. Little Feat lost that monster talent and funkiness that he brought to this great band... RIP, Lowell (and Richie Hayward).
Best version of this song ever. Long time Little Feat fan.
awesome. i have always loved that tune!
Bonnie Raitt just got song of the year !
one of my favourite busking songs at the moment
Hello Helen, how are things going with you?
I had tickets to see Little Feat in Richmond, Va. on July 1, 1979. He died in Washington D.C. two days before.
I still have the tickets...............just in case.
I had tickets to see Otis Redding when his plane crashed in Lake Monona in Madison.
You two guys better stop buying concert tickets !! :-/
@@frantisca best comment in years. I'm still laughing!
That would be some come back tour!
I'm from RVA and saw them in the 80's at a 4th of July show at the fairgrounds!!
What a great guitar solo. Beautifully constructed.
I'd say he's the most underrated gitar man ever. Didn't have A Look.
My Dad got me hooked big time. I cannot stop listening to Little Feat, love it!
Bestes gute Laune Stück. Lowell George war ein toller Sänger und Gitarrist und cooler Typ, er hat mit Little Feat, für mich, die amerikanische Musik gemacht.
Bonny Raitt was smokin hot, damn. Little Feat rocks my world.
Was? She still is. Same for Emmy Lou.
The whole idea of having such backing vocalists is outrageous and monumental. Never tire of this album.
The best. Boy do I miss him. Seen the.feat 20 times.
I have an original LP in plastic
What great fun to watch and listen to! They were all so young then!
You've got Bonnie Raitt and Emmy Lou Harris.2 amazing hall of fame legends, Rock N Roll and Country respectively. What great music.
I’m so blessed to have seen Lil Feat many times in my life.
They are just so amazing!!!!!!! I miss that man! 😥😪 So sad he is gone, but they still play great in concert. I've seen them a bunch of times. My favorite all time band! ❤️💞
Hello Terri, How are you doing?
Fantastic song. Great saying and singing here. Emmylou and Bonnie make this very special.. Lowell George had soul. Love this clip so much.
Bill Payne is 69 today.R.I.P. Lowell,Richie and Jesse.Music was so good back then!
Emmylou and Bonnie Raitt as your backup singers!? Unbelievable. The Midnight Special was such a great show.
My sister God rest her soul would wake me up when I was 4-10 years old to have me watch the Special
I was 11 years old when I saw this the first time - sneaking out of bed after my parents went to sleep and putting a blanket over the TV so nobody would discover my rule breaking. Suffice to say seeing this changed my musical tastes forever so it would have been worth if I had been caught.
Miss Emylou Harris was very beautiful in this performance
Good pick Woody. I was not paying attention, and my eyes popped when I saw Emmylou and Bonnie.
Emmy Lou and Bonnie back in the day. DAAAMMMNN!!!
Wish their mic had been switched on.
One of the best bits of music and great folks playing that you will find. I love this jam and Lowell's singing.. Bonnie and EmmyLou make this an all-star show..
HAD … TO …WATCH …again , and dig the Southern Honkytonk Blues …
What a fantastic band! My first concert. RIP Lowell George died way too young. Bill Payne on the keys
1977 Emily Lou Harris is almost as beautiful as 2020 Emily Lou. A true angel.
I remember this show! What an awesome video to have! Back from the day when there were multiple GREAT music concerts and such on late night Fridays and Saturdays! Wish they were still a thing!
Me too but not that many worth staying up for
The sound on this is incredible, and I'm listening on my phone!
I had a little crush for Miss Bonnie Raitt. She was a cute ginger back then with a great voice.
