the best show I ever saw was little feat on the riverboat president


It was facking amazing. It felt like shell shock after it was over.

Riverboat President Concert

quote:

The recording is somewhat less than pristine. But it captures the atmosphere extremely well, with the
drunkenly enthused featfans singing along at full throttle. This may be the only audience recording where
I don't much mind the crowd chatter. It gives you a feeling of what it must've been like to be one of the
lucky few that night, afloat on the Mississippi River and an ocean of booze and the rebirth of America's
greatest rock 'n roll band.

BTW - I never got to see Lowell George. This concert was the first Little Feat show after his death, a few years later. It probably was the pent up energy that made it so special but it was unreal.

Craig Fuller became the front man for Little Feat and he was a damn good pick. I saw them a few more times and the shows were all over the charts for quality. A later show with Sonny Landreth at Jazz Fest was one of the better ones. Lowell George came out of Frank Zappa's band and learned the importance of having top quality musicians and Little Feat always had that. But you can't replace a Lowell George.
