Lowell George the single most underrated musician of all time.

Tyler Thompson a lot of guitar players respect his slide playing, but he had a great voice, although he’s kind of restrained in this one.

I was at his last performance in DC- ironic that his death mirrored the words of "Fat Man in the Bathtub"- ("don't want no speedballs, cause' I might die tryin'").

Anyone who plays this style of music and plays slide guitar knows who Lowell George is. I love Little Feat so I was a fan as a teenager. I was influenced by him as a guitar player.

@@dubliner27 she was only 19 years old at the time. That’s one of the magic parts about this recording is she is such a newbie. Almost giggly out of high school be sure to listen to the full version of this show which is posted here somewhere the quality isn’t great, but it’s a gem through and through, it include some of the best versions of some of his songs for sure like China White which gets way down in the gutter.

I'm here out of love and I wish I could stay But I know you heartache you'll stand in my way There's no use in wishin' 'cause I ain't satisfied I'm fit to be a misfit when you're at my side Heartache find another place to be I'm tired of being your best friend Look to another for your companion And when you do my pain will end There's nowhere at all I'm feeling no pain My body is sickly and my mind is insane I call on you heartache to come show me how I can't get no lower than this hole I'm in now Heartache find another place to be I'm tired of being your best friend Look to another for your companion And when you do my pain will end Heartache find another place to be I'm tired of being your best friend Look to another for your companion And when you do my pain will end When you do my pain will end

Had the pleasure of seeing Little Feat in Glasgow in 76,during an ongoing love affair with Linda Ronstadt. Her talent is limitless, her beauty, on a spiritual level. Why on earth was Lowel George taken so soon? Some things don't make any sense.

It you want to be completely knocked off your feet pull up Valerie Carter's award-winning star-studded 1st album/CD and listen to this same song- Lowell George co-produced (with George Massenburg and Bob Irwin) Valerie’s first solo album, Just A Stone’s Throw Away (Columbia, 1977). Stone’s Throw featured an all-star line-up of supporting players, including George, Linda Ronstadt, Earth, Wind and Fire’s Maurice White, the Lovin’ Spoonful’s John Sebastian and singer Deniece Williams on backing vocals, Jackson Browne on piano and guitar, Toto’s Jeff Porcaro on drums, and Little Feat’s (and one-time James Taylor band member) Billy Payne on keyboards. The LP also contained three of Valerie’s compositions, two of which were written with Lowell George. AND THEY DO THIS SAME SONG- HEARTACHE. with Bill Payne at the piano....Linda Ronstadt on backing vocals--- YOU WILL WEEP. sparse production on this tune is so elegant and "live". They just don't produce like this anymore. Enjoy....This Album is a gem. Every single cut!!!!

When Lowell George walked away in 1979 (And died shortly thereafter) from LF I stopped listening to that band. They later reformed in 1987 with a new lead singer, Craig Fuller (Co-founder of Pure Prarie League) and continued playing records from LFs first 8 records, plus new music of thier own post Lowell George. But the sound wasn't the same IMO....... you just cannot reproduce the tone and texture of that Lowell George vocal and, for me, the music stopped short of reaching my heart. Game over. RIP Lowell George and TY for the records you left us.

@Armchair Rambo - Yes, it's definitely Linda: an excerpt from a '75 Live radio appearance on WHMS FM, Maryland ...it came right after they sang 'Willin'. The two of them were cheating on George's wife, which she mentioned at her '77 Atlanta concert, 2 years before George ate & overdosed himself to a heart attack on tour. Sad life of someone with no control over his appetites.
