Little Feat Live DVD
09/16/2009
.
(PR) In 1977, Little Feat performed on German TV's favored musical playground Rockpalast. On September 22, Eagle Rock Entertainment, through its Eagle Vision subsidiary, will release this performance on DVD, when Skin It Back: Live In Germany hits stores.
Filmed at the Grugahalle in Essen, this concert was shot just days before the recording of their renowned live album Waiting For Columbus. Featuring the band's classic line-up, late vocalist/guitarist Lowell George leads the band � vocalist/guitarist Paul Barrere, vocalist/keyboardist Bill Payne, percussionist Sam Clayton, bassist Kenny Gradney, and drummer Richard Hayward � through the 11-song performance. The thirty minutes of never-before-seen alternate rehearsal versions of the songs include "Rock N Roll Doctor," which did not make the cut for the final show.
Formed in 1969, Little Feat is a band without musical boundaries. They meld southern influences, blues and Dixie-land boogie, with R&B, folk and rock into jam band perfection. Getting their start after George left Frank Zappa's Mothers of Invention, the band's blend of top-notch musicianship and earthy, organic groove made them musical staples. This is perfectly captured on the Skin It Back DVD.
Eagle Rock also released Little Feat's High Wire Act: Live In St. Louis 2003 on DVD in November 2003, and is readying other great performances from the Rockpalast vaults, including concerts from Meat Loaf, Thin Lizzy, and UB40.
