Great live band and Waiting For Columbus may be one of the best live albums ever.

One of my favorite bands and albums. I never saw them with Lowell George but I did see their first concert after his death (on the Riverboat President for Jazz Fest). That was the best concert I've ever seen or ever will see. Pretty much did Waiting For Columbus again. Saw them a couple of years later and the concert was awful. Then a few years after that with Sonny Landreth and it was a very good show. Top notch musicians throughout. Bill Payne on piano especially. Lowell George was in Frank Zappa's band for a while and it seemed like he learned some from Zappa's high standards for musicians. So many great songs but Willin really is the standout to me. Linda Ronstadt doing All That You Dream at the tribute concert for Lowell George is one of the great live performances ever. Lowell George was near his creative peak when he died; what a loss.
