Little Feat - Waiting for Columbus

[Longhorn_Fan68]

Great album.

 

[Third Coast]

Spotcheck Billy got down on his hands and knees
He said "Hey momma, hey let me check your oil all right?"
She said "No, no honey, not tonight
Comeback Monday, comeback Tuesday, then I might"

I miss Lowell George

 

[Perham1]

I miss Lowell George.

No kidding. Imo, "Time Loves a Hero" is otherworldly in the rhythm and guitar playing.

Never heard girls that could sing so sweet as the angels that live in Houston. Won't you roll me easy, so slow and easy.

Apolitical Blues
-- Lowell George

Well my telephone was ringing
And they told me it was Chairman Mao
Well my telephone was ringing
And they told me it was Chairman Mao
You can tell him anything
'Cause I just don't wanna talk to him now

 

[AustinTejasFan]

I been warped by the rain, driven by the snow
I'm drunk and dirty don't ya know, and I'm still, willin'
Out on the road late at night, Seen my pretty Alice in every head light
Alice, Dallas Alice

I've been from Tuscon to Tucumcari
Tehachapi to Tonapah
Driven every kind of rig that's ever been made
Driven the back roads so I wouldn't get weighed
And if you give me: weed, whites, and wine
and you show me a sign
I'll be willin', to be movin'

I've been kicked by the wind, robbed by the sleet
Had my head stoved in, but I'm still on my feet and I'm still... willin'
Now I smuggled some smokes and folks from Mexico
baked by the sun, every time I go to Mexico, and I'm still

And I been from Tuscon to Tucumcari
Tehachapi to Tonapah
Driven every kind of rig that's ever been made
Driven the back roads so I wouldn't get weighed
And if you give me: weed, whites, and wine
and you show me a sign
I'll be willin', to be movin

 

[Chest Rockwell]

Take me back to my freshman year living in Jester. Plenty of longnecks gave their lives in the name of this album. It's hard to pick one song and say that is without a doubt the the best on this album. It seems like it changes everytime I listen to it.

 

[Hornius Emeritus]

I always thought "Fat Man in the Bathtub" would be a great BBS handle.

Though I love "Waiting for Columbus," I celebrate their entire catalog. I love "Down on the Farm" for example
