5.0 out of 5 stars Feat Lives On, August 8, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Ain't Had Enough Fun (Audio CD)

This album, which was the first after the departure of Craig Fuller and the joining of the band full time by Shaun Murphy, is one truly underrated and unappreciated album. It combines the best of what the Feat are known for: Great songwriting, fantastic musical performances and a greasy Cajun, bluesy style groove that the Feat produce better than any band around. It was a stroke of genius to ask Shaun Murphy to join the band as her vocals have to be heard to be believed and add to the bands already powerful sound. Like most Feat albums it may take several listens to fully appreciate the complexity and artistry that go into the making of a Great Little Feat album and believe me this is one of the Great albums they have made in their long and productive 30 year career. Long live the Feat!

5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite Feat studio CD, April 7, 2003

This Feat album is pure boogie-woogie, blues, and rock 'n' roll - and I love it for that. It does not have the jazz-fusion songs that you find on "Representing the Mambo," "Time Loves A Hero" or "Down on the Farm."

On this album, the band also wisely brought back-up singer Shawn Murphy up to the forefront - making her a full-fledged member of the band, and letting her sing more than 1/2 of the songs. Her voice is fantastic! (she also gets songwriting credit on some of the tunes.)

If you like to rock or boogie - get this album!
If you like 12-bar blues - get this album!

If you prefer jazz instead, get the aformentioned albums.

This review is from: Ain't Had Enough Fun (Audio CD)

Here is the fourth (and current) incarnation of the Feat. By dropping Craig Fuller (or by Fuller dropping Feat) the group was able to really stretch out and rock. By moving loud and brassy back-up vocalist Shaun Murphy to the forefront (a move that was not surprising in light of her involvement on the previous album, "Let it Roll") makes the Feat turn into something they haven't been before. It gives them the opportunity to take a broader scope with their songs and gives Paul Barerre and Bill Payne more room for vocal interplay. This album has moments as good as any that the Feat ever had and they seem really comfortable with their role as good time roadhouse rock band. All of the songs are very good (some, like Cajun Rage and the title track, are downright awesome) but Little Feat has less become about its songwriting and more about its sound. And while Murphy sometimes gives the band a dubious hayseed sheen with her carousing Bingo at midnight, drinks at three and divorce in the morning voice, Little Feat still rocks your socks and this album, warts and all, is brilliant.
