Little Feat was discovered and signed to the Warner Brothers label by legendary producer Russ Titelman. The band's 1971 self-titled debut instantly established Little Feat as a fresh slice of musical Americana.
This eclectic group of talent formed for barely a year; were steeped in their love of rock, R&B, blues and country with just a pinch of New Orleans spice. After honing their unique blend in clubs and on the road, they were able to capture the magic of their live shows in the studio. The resulting release, tastefully assisted by guests Ry Cooder on bottleneck slide and Sneaky Pete's pedal steel, was one of the most unpretentious and timeless recording debuts since Music From Big Pink.
Fortified with some very strong songwriting from both lead guitarist Lowell George and keyboardist Bill Payne, such future Feat classics as "Willin'," "Truck Stop Girl," "Snakes on Everything" and "Crazy Captain Gunboat Willie," plus a medley tribute to Howlin' Wolf, help rank Little Feat along side Sailin' Shoes, Dixie Chicken and Waiting for Columbus as one of their greatest albums.
