Normally it's ba'd practice to buy
because the cover looks good. '
, But Little Feat's album, Peats Don't Fail Me Now
isn't exactly normal. The cover art by Neon Park XIII
shows Marilyn Monroe. beside George Washington m :,

similar praise. But on to the music.
Bill Payne's keyboard work is sometimes honkv-tonk,
sometimes rock and roil, but mostly an exclusive lilt!??
Feai style. Likewise, the distinct guitars shine sn!
brightly, notably on "Rock and Roll Doctor" and
"Down the Road." Guitarists Paul Barrere and Lowell
George often toss around fine whinny riffs.
George s pusnea voice is featured on many cuts, it is j
frequently supported by Ken Gradney's bass (guitar
ana voice;. Bonnie nam neips mi in ine nacKgrouna
vocals.
Side one is, for the most part, typically Little Feat.
Side two is more.
Little Feat must have listened to Frank Zappa before
recording "The Fan.": The old mothers bivia also
comes through on a little bit of business just before the
record ends.
The LP closes with a rnedlev of two sonos from Sailin
Shoes, and Feat's second and best album. An up tempo
beat detracts a mite from "Cold, Cold, Cold" but
definitely adds to "Tripe Face Boogie." The transition
Deiween tne two is beautiful. Transitions betvvsen
songs are an unheralded art.
Feats Don't Fail Me Now is the name of Littie Feat's
fourth alubunm It's also a desperate plea. They say it's
their last album if they don't make some money.
This group should not die.
