Little Feat - Sailin' Shoes flac album

Sailin' Shoes is the second studio album by the American rock band Little Feat, released in 1972. Little Feat's sophomore effort, the Ted Templeman produced Sailin' Shoes marked a shift from the sound of the band's first album, Little Feat, to that of their next album, Dixie Chicken. It also introduced the cover artwork of Neon Park to the group, and was the last album appearance of original bassist Roy Estrada.

Little Feat's debut may have been a great album but it sold so poorly, they had to either broaden their audience or, in all likelihood, they'd be dropped from Warner. So, Sailin' Shoes is a consciously different record from its predecessor - less raw and bluesy, blessed with a varied production and catchier songs. That still doesn't make it a pop record, since Little Feat, particularly in its first incarnation, was simply too idiosyncratic, earthy and strange for that

Little Feat’s second album, from 1972, is a dusty trove of loose-limbed blues, flinty R&B, and essential rock ’n’ roll. It finds a band heading down a road littered with seamy truck stops and beat motels. It speaks in literate ways of living on biker speed, bad weed, and cheap wine. It’s like there was some great American mythic living inside the head of frontman Lowell George: a guy looking for freedom who wrote and sang songs because he knew there was nothing else in life for him. (To hear just how dicey that existence was, listen to the anthemic opener, Easy to Slip )

Little Feat Format: Vinyl. Litt'e Feat's debut album, while still pretty good, failed to sell well or crack the charts. Nowadays, that would be typical, but if you were signed to a big label like Warner Bros. and didn't sell well in 1971, this was bad news indeed. Luckily, 1972's Sailing Shoes managed to give the band some recognition, along with it being a huge improvement over the previous album. The band toned down the balladering and weirdness of their debut, and replaced it with strong hooks and a penchant for songwriting

Sailin' Shoes Lyrics. There's a lady in a turban, in a cocaine tree She does a dance so rhythmically She's cryin', and a-singin' and having a time And don't that cocaine tree look fine. You've got to put on your sailin' shoes Put on your sailin' shoes Everyone will start to cheer When you put on your sailin' shoes. Jedidiah, he's got a dime Says he catch a more fish, every time Well I got a line, and you got a pole And I'll meet you at the fishin' hole
