All I know of Little Feat is (of course) their being the backing band on an excellent John Cale record, and their brief late '80's comeback on MTV, which I recall as highly generic boogie stuff; the two have always been tough to reconcile.

Kinda sounds like-- wait for it-- their first album was better, huh? Not really. As to what you're missing, that's an impossibly large question. Roughly Feat can be divided into two periods, before (and after) Lowell George, though as the nicely concise history on the wiki notes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Feat - the early sound was changing while he was still alive. The 'classic' lineup, what almost everyone calls "real" Little Feat, was a blend of swamp, funk, boogie, country and whatever else crept into Lowell's drug-addled head. The band around him could play it all too, and in spades - Paul Barrere in particular being a master of mixing styles. 'Hybrid' doesn't do it justice, and trying to peg it as 'boogie' or another generic term is far too limiting. It was unique, and remains some of the greatest music I have ever heard. After Lowell the band turned into something else entirely, nearly devoid of the seriously funky backbone but still putting out a well-produced, somewhat more jazz-influenced sound. This has led to negative comparisons with the earlier lineups, which is a bit unfair but understandable; I think the love people have for the original Feat borders on the rapturous, and they don't want the memory tarnished. If you want a survey of the sound, I'd say get the live WAITING FOR COLUMBUS...but any of the early 70's albums will do. Michael those Feat'll steer you wrong sometimes division ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 15 Mar 2007 10:44:04 -0700 (PDT) From: Jeff Dwarf Subject: Re: My name is "The Allman Brothers" and I'm trying to figure out what a doobie is 2fs wrote: > Seriously: it does help explain the curious phenomenon that people > who watch *more* TV news tend to know less about reality than > people who watch less.

Hi Fegs, Well, it's costing me being on Feglist. My recent Amazon purchased arrived: 1. "Funhouse" - with bonus disc - after listening to "Raw Power" for a few days, I decided MJ was indeed right about this album and so I finally got a proper copy (i.e. I no longer can play my cassette in the car.) BTW, MJ, that was Stooges, what's your pick for solo Iggy? Do you get kicked out of the club if it's not "The Idiot"? I don't dare risk it... 2. Hair - original Broadway recording (of course) - I've been too lazy to set up my turntable or go on Soulseek. It turns out I still know *all* the words to "Frank Mills". They put some "previously unreleased" crap in there which have might be "the right thing to do" but man, don't fuck with my childhood memories. 3. Amy Winehouse - whatever that album was that came out Tuesday. My first exposure to her was a few days ago, watching this kick-ass BBC performance that's currently on Dime - male backup singers, oh yes! I have high hopes. BTW, I think the thing was only $7.99 new. I guess it's one of those "listen to this new and exciting young artist" kind of deals.

It was interesting, but I think it ultimately falls just a bit short of being good. I also thought it was odd that it was rated R, presumably because you almost, but not quite, see Gael Garcia Bernal's cock a couple times (once through soapy bathwater, once via a peephole). If it had been Charlotte Gainsbourg's tits, it would've been PG13. Granted, I'd rather have seen those than Bernal's penis again (does he whip it out in every movie?), but as Americans, we do fear the love sausage, especially on a brown or black guy. > BTW, I don't really understand the phenomenon of DVD sales.

Supposedly, the DVD sales have started slowing down as people realize they don't need to be so indiscriminate in movie ownership. But some people really, really, really love Jennifer Anniston and/or Vince Vaughn.

An people buying DVDs that have favourite actors or actresses does make sense to me.

It seems to me like a lot of people, including a bunch of my friends, really loaded up on DVD's for a while, amassing collections of discs many of which they'd freely admit to never having watched (but had seen in previous incarnations and didn't mind displaying), for a couple of intertwined reasons-- one being that DVD was sort of the first medium to be really geared towards the collector or cineaste, with a way longer shelf-life and design ethic than VHS, and, being digital, were sort of thought to be *the* definitive versions of these films... if you bought the deluxe DVD, you had the best version of that film, for life. Which turns out not to be the case, and I do believe that the sudden realization that HD is just around the corner, together with the glut of deluxer-that-last-time deluxe re-re-reissues, led to a lot of these folks feeling conned, and to the cooling down of sales. Maybe it's more prevalent in LA, but I think some consumers actually liked being respected for once, and were doubly peeved about the bait-and-switch. Another thing that led to the boom was how damn cheap DVD's were in comparison to the then-current rental model, with late-fees and such, that people would just as soon own 'em. And it was probably our hypothetical morning-after "what did I do last night and why did it result in so many Vince Vaughan movies in my living space?" regret that also contributed to the sales cooldown... coupled with the Netflix-style reconfiguring of the rental model into something far less pain-in-teh-assy. Oh, and the TV-show thing... decent box-sets of TV show seasons were very novel. But with the release this week of "Bosom Buddies: The Complete First Season", I think we can pretty much say that well has run dry, with the exception of ongoing series. Say, what haven't I mentioned yet here? Why, downloading movies, which was supposed to be the real menace to DVD sales and rentals. Know why?

It's maybe closer to a bun, but it's quite like the Canadian Tea Biscuit, which is similar to a scone. A scone is just like a biscuit, especially when it's a savoury scone. A British Tea Biscuit is a flat, hard (US) cookie. Biscuits should be hard; if they're soggy, like a US soft cookie, they're old and should be discarded. And then there are Digestive Biscuits, which Southern friends (Atlanta) thought were medicinal. I bet most Americans were confused by the meaning of the term "biscuit ersed" in Trainspotting.
