Little Feat might have lost original members since forming in 1969, but they still brandish supernatural chops and signature Louisiana swagger, as long-time conga player Sam Clayton steps up to handle vocals with gruff aplomb on their first blues-based album.
With original keyboard player Bill Payne and bassist Kenny Gradney joined by guitarist Fred Tackett, slide guitarist Scott Sharrard, drummer Tony Leone and harmonica maestro Michael 'Bull' LoBoe, Feat seamlessly plug in to the Willie Dixon- Muddy Waters songbook (apart from Clayton's brass- laden opener Milk Man), with Bonnie Raitt duetting on the latter's Long Distance Call.
