PUTS SOUTHERN-FRIED SPIN ON WEST COAST SOUND

Just as iconic illustrator Robert Crumb's characters evoke weirdly sympathetic figures, so too do vocalist/guitarist Lowell George's cartoonish character-driven narratives. His tales seem to come from a dusty, long-lost comic book – or a secret history of American culture that's a helluva lot more exciting, fun, and authentic than most anything you've heard. Liberating, freewheeling, and lined with subtle streaks of dark humor, Little Feat is the musical companion to Easy Rider. And now, it has widescreen sonics to match. Sourced from the original analog master tapes, Mobile Fidelity's 180-gram LP of Little Feat is more raw, bluesy, immediate, and open than any previous version.
