Saw them at HoB and they were pretty great.....Tony Thompson was a badass on the drums.

ah yeah - the full suite is legit
Absolutely.
"Sailin' Shoes"
"Hey Julia"
"Sneakin' Sally Through the Alley" (Allen Toussaint)
One of the best three-song medleys in pop/rock history.

I am not even sure why I know it. By far my favorite from him.

I always liked Pressure Drop from the eponymous album
Backed by Little Feat and the Muscle Shoals Horns.

Saw him with Asleep at the Wheel in late 70's.. some small hot club along Nicholson/Highland (help here don't remember).

It’s a great album.

I Didn't Mean To Turn You On is one of the greatest songs of the 80's. Love that shite.

His early stuff was some of the most supreme white boy funk ever put on vinyl.
Who knew The Meters were white?

Y’all, Robert Palmer is not good
His sort of funky/bluesy sound makes me want to blow my brains out.

Woke up Laughing is a criminally underrated banger

Yup. I remember it sounded so futuristic to me as a kid.

This. I've liked him going back to his Vinegar Joe days singing 'Never met a Dog'.

truly one of the greatest supergroups out there.
John Taylor and the drummer absolutely kill it on that ine and Bang a Gong.

More fun music related facts about that Lake Vista neighborhood. I was also good Edward Haslam's younger brother who worked with Fess.
quote:
In the 1970s Haslam worked with the piano-player Professor Longhair. When he died in 1980 Haslam got out of the music business and pursued a career in advertising. This included the managing the advertising campaigns for the Chrysler Corporation. As he pointed out: "I went from Professor Longhair to Lee Iacocca in 8 years".

Fantastic song with great bass and drum combo.
Some Like It Hot is also has a ridiculous bass/drum combo with Tony Thompson and John Taylor. That groove before the guitar solo. Also the unique harmonies on the verses almost sound off key but are intentional. Great song.
