Little Feat w/ Mick Taylor
-
Artist:
One of my desert island disks is Little Feat's Waiting for Columbus, which was recorded live at the Rainbow Theatre in London and Lisner Auditorium in Washington, DC. Part of what makes that a desert island disk is the inclusion of the Tower of Power horns. On the break for Dixie Chicken, for example, the horns break into a little dixieland jazz before the song returns to the second verse.This clip is from the Rainbow Theatre show, and features Mick Taylor on guitar. The performance in the clip differs slightly from the one on the album, and I'm not entirely sure why. The album had some overdubbing done to it, but there are other parts that are slightly different. I'm inclined to think that the differences are overdubs.This was two years before Lowell George died, and gives a good idea of the energy of that show. I also love George's humor in this song; "I don't care if it's the unholy four of John Wayne and Dorothy Lamar."
