Always have had a fond spot for them. Glad that they are soldiering on without Lowell, Richie, and Paul. Some nice venues on this tour. Hope they add a few more. It's strange that there are no D.C. or Baltimore dates, as that is their traditional home turf. WFC was recorded in D.C. at the Lisner Auditorium. Some shows at the Capitol Theater in Portchester, and some West Coast dates would be welcome.

Best NYE show I ever saw was
Best NYE show I ever saw was Little Feat when I got shut out of GD Oakland. Pretty sure the band had already lost LG by then, I wasn't even a Little Feat fan so IDK...but I left that show a fan.

The Blue Seas Saga
Some of the best rock bands of the 1970s recorded at Blue Seas Recording Studios, until it sank, under mysterious circumstances, into the harbor.
..."The studio’s extensive tape library, including valuable Lowell George demos and Lovin’ Spoonful outtakes, was destroyed. “Everything else that got lost was mechanical equipment and could be replaced,” says Boone, “but losing all of those tapes really hurt.”

"...George maintained an extremely busy schedule towards the end of 1978. Besides touring with Little Feat, he was involved in production work on his first solo album as well as producing sessions for Shakedown Street, the next album by the venerable San Francisco jam band, The Grateful Dead. Working with The Dead should have been a window of opportunity for George to establish a more viable musical identity outside of Little Feat and yet the record reeks of mediocrity. Sadly, Shakedown Street stands as one of the worst albums ever released by The Grateful Dead. In Rock & Roll Doctor, Brend explains that, "Although things started well, the project ran out of steam after a few weeks and George withdrew from the sessions before the album was finished. Explanations for this were not forthcoming but no doubt George's perfectionism was at odds with the laidback Grateful Dead approach."
Here's an outtake of the "Good Lovin" track from this album which surprisingly features Lowell George singing the lead vocal part! His voice is extremely energetic on this version and the contrast between this outtake and the version featuring the weaker vocals of Bob Weir, Jerry Garcia and company that was eventually released is stunning, to say the least. The "Good Lovin" outtake hints at just how good this project could have been if George had managed to summon the needed energy to finish the production.

It was a clear indication that his years of substance abuse had finally begun to impact his musical judgment as a producer and musician. The only positive thing that Lowell seemed to take away from this project was "Six Feet of Snow," a sprightly country tune he co-wrote with Keith Godchaux, keyboard player for The Dead. This song would make an appearance on George's last album with Little Feat, Down On The Farm. ..."
