Little
Feat Join The Band
Feat was always
one of the truly Great American Bands. Those ranks have thinned so
much lately that they could coast along and preserve that mantle
just by staying together. And
a glance at the songs titles on this disc might make you worry that shift
had begun. Fear not Feat fans.
Join The Band
is not a "Best Of" "Greatest Hits" or a similarly easy do dismiss rehash
that only gets credit in a "back in the day..." context. It is a
fresh collection of Feat and other classics lovingly recorded by a cast
including the guy that hatched the idea and offered his studio along with
some of his band members for the recording, Jimmy Buffett (Time
Loves A Hero), Emmylou Harris (Sailing Shoes), Chris Robinson
(Oh Atlanta), Brooks & Dunn (Willin'), Dave Matthews (Fat
man In the Bath Tub), VinceGill (Dixie Chicken), Bob
Seger (Something In The Water) and Lowell George's daughter, Inara,
accompanied by Billy Payne rendering a beautiful version of Trouble. Join The Band is not a tribute album in the traditional sense - but
it is a tribute to all involved that longtime fans of Little Feat will
find Join The Banddeserves a place in their collections.
