About This Release
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 45 RPM pressing, cut by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab from the original master tape, opens up the soundstage with wider grooves for superior tracking, lower distortion, and richer dynamics. Guitars shimmer, vocals breathe, and the rhythm section punches with warmth and clarity that only vinyl - at 45 RPM - can deliver. Pressed on ultra-quiet, perfectly flat 2LP by Quality Record Pressings, this timeless blend of storytelling from one of the most influential bands from the 70's Warner catalog, sounds magnificent.Part of the Acoustic Sounds 40 SeriesReleasing 40 titles to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Acoustic Sounds!Mastered by Matthew Lutthans at The Mastering Lab from the original master tape180-gram 45 RPM double LP pressed at Quality Record PressingsHoused in a Stoughton Printing tip-on gatefold jacketTracklist:LP 1 Side A1.
