Feats Don't Fail Me Now

Brand new sealed limited edition double album housed in a gatefold cover.

Little Feat have released a new Deluxe Edition of Feats Don’t Fail Me Now this summer, just in time for the 50th anniversary of the legendary group’s fourth studio album. It joins Rhino’s growing list of Little Feat reissues, including last year’s Deluxe Editions for Sailin’ Shoes and Dixie Chicken and 2022’s massive Waiting for Columbus boxed set.

FEATS DON’T FAIL ME NOW (DELUXE EDITION) will be available June 14 on 3-CD and 2-LP. Both versions include the studio album newly remastered from the original multi-track and two-track stereo tapes. They also feature rare and unreleased alternate versions and outtakes from the album sessions. In addition, the CD set comes with an exclusive unreleased recording of Little Feat performing live in Paris in 1975.

Originally released in August 1974, Feats Don’t Fail Me Now was the band’s fourth album overall but only the second recorded by the classic lineup of singer-guitarist Lowell George, drummer Richard Hayward, keyboard player Bill Payne, singer-guitarist Paul Barrere, bassist Kenny Gradney, and percussionist Sam Clayton. The album also features the R&B funk group Tower of Power on horns.

When it came out, the album received glowing reviews for its funky grooves and standout tracks like “Rock & Roll Doctor,” “Oh Atlanta,” and the lead single, “Spanish Moon.” The album went gold and was the band’s first to reach the Billboard Top 200, peaking at #36.
