Formed by the late, great Lowell George, Little Feat made music that was loose, funky, literate, and impossible to pin down. Sailin' Shoes (1972) caught the band just as their legend was taking shape - a mix of sharp-witted storytelling and swampy grooves that defined early-'70s cool. From 'Willin' and 'Easy to Slip' to the swaggering title track, it's a master class in Southern California songwriting with a Louisiana twist. These songs defined Little Feat's legend as one of rock's most distinctive voices.

This Hybrid SACD, mastered direct to DSD by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab from the original master tape, opens up the soundstage with lower distortion, and richer dynamics. Guitars shimmer, vocals breathe, and the rhythm section punches with warmth and clarity. This timeless blend of storytelling from one of the most influential bands from the '70s Warner catalog, sounds magnificent.

Lowell George's vision takes flight!
