I'm an old Canadian guitar picker (74 and counting), still playing and healthy thank God. But this tune? We learned it way back when it was new, and now, with my latest group, we're learning it again. Just a great band with the ability to rock the house. Always will be a fav of mine!!!
How did we get to a place where this music, musicianship and groove are nonexistent. I love this entire album. We won't see it's like again in our lifetimes.
Bullshit. Stop living in the past. I'm 75 and have never lacked for great rock and roll including Blues, Folk and Soul. It never ends. It's you and your appreciation that are lacking.
Impeccable playing, impeccable musicianship, impeccable writing, along with impeccable sound in the studio AND live - for decades! A true musician's band & audiophile's band!
Saw them in Chi in the 70s with the Tower of Power and Robert Palmer, and Lowell of course. Saw them right after this album too. They never fail!!! Feats wont fail us now
I saw Little Feat at the West Palm Beach County Fair for the first time some 40 years ago. I had unbelievably never heard of them before but my friend told me I'd love them. And she was right. They are such a great kick-ass band. Thanks Glenna for taking me to that concert so many years ago.
I was in radio longer than this song has been around. I loved it when it was released but I was never able to play it without breaking format, It was ignored by every station in the country, The internet will keep it alive though. Thank you UA-cam. This song was also a favorite of my first wife, God rest her soul.
I heard it one time, and one time only. Little Feat happened to play Saturday Night Live, and I happened to tune it. I hadn't seen SNL in probably 10 years at that time, and I don't think I watched it since. Bought the CD the next day.
@@curtisgibbons1078 the stations I worked at weren't formatted for rock. I t wasn't until years after this song was a hit, I worked at a rock station but this song was never on the playlist. I could never understand why. It's too good to be ignored.
Waiting For Columbus imho is among the top 3 live albums of all time, along with Frampton Comes Alive....these guys have been kicking a** for 45+ years!!
One of the qualities of Little Feat over the years is their endurance as a band. As I write we have lost Little Feat spiritual leader Paul Barrere. Little Feat's spirit to revitalize their music muse has always appealed to me and certainly others with the 80"s resurgence of the band. And in my opinion they can continue the the next chapter should they choose to do so. With established and notable musicians for example Larry Campbell, Amy Helm, David Bromberg , Bonnie Raitt and others ALL could continue the legacy style and musicianship of Little Feat.
Little Feat is a great band ,theyve been around for decades ,sad to hear Ritchie Hayward has passed ,he was one of the best drummers, he had that unique groove thats really hard to emulate , but I hope the band carries on ,..after Lowell George died in the 80s ,the critics said that was it for Little Feat ....but you just cant keep a good band down,.. mark it a great band , Long live Little Feat
Like most things related to Little Feat, this is great. A great, infectious song with a fun video. Especially great to see Richie Hayward playing - he was captivating to watch the times I saw them live.
Little Feat isn't just a band there a 40 plus yr institution .. the biggest loss for me was Richie Hayward , who I used to study his new Orleans jazzy feels and funk beats , its sad that Lowell George died so young ..but losing Ritchie was sad to me ..he was one of the best technical drummers ..I learned a lot from ...I could also say studying Ritchie help win me a bunch of auditions , carpal tunnel makes it hard to play drums long now..so I play gtr now ..I cant even do that except a cpl hrs ...but RIP LITTLE FEAT brothers , you guys are still carrying on ..and that's a good thing
Little Feat. Really fine. This band has touched any musician who is anybody. These guys are players players. Lowell George did create a monster. Little Feats music is the perfect distillation.
--[1] Among Little Feat's many great songs, without doubt, Let It Roll is their best & greatest song. This song is one of the best rock songs ever composed & performed. --[2] Saw Little Feat two Fridays ago (3/25/22) at the Sanger Theatre here in New Orleans. LF ended the whole concert with "Let It Roll", their best & greatest song. What a concert. What a great way to end a concert. What a song !!!! Richard
My first concert experience was when I was about 15 and my brother took me to see Little Feat on their 'Let It Roll' tour. That was almost 24 years ago and it's still the best concert I've ever attended. Those feats steered them right.
@@procopiojrpalacios9702 Agree. I was lucky enough to see them in '78 with Lowell. Not taking anything away from the Let it Roll version of the band, but when I think of Little Feat, it absolutely includes Lowell George; those were the glory days.
I was pulling out of someones drive way when this song came on the radio i just bagged my 😊41 woody wagon great deal and times every time i hear this takes me back that time!
Back in the day... I was working in a steel Fab Shop and the cops showed up tellin' the foreman that the people across the river from us thought we were playing the tunes a bit too loud at 2:30 in the morning... This was one of the tunes...
One of the greatest songs ever from one of the greatest bands ever. It's a tragedy that there's no longer music like this being written and performed. This song made me fall in love with Paul; and every time I hear it it makes me cry for what we've lost. Absolutely the best.
I was lucky enough to meet Paul a few months before he passed away. Very gracious and a really nice guy. I thanked him for his music and he smiled, shook my hand, and thanked me back. Something I'll never forget. Thanks, Paul.
Little Feat- can't say enough about these guys! Sàw them back iñ the late ⁷⁰'s àt thé Pàramount in Seattle. I will always be a huge fan of the FEAT!!! Screech. Ñ.E. Cali.
I can thank the previous speaker for his words ... little feat was and is a big band. The mix of boggie blues, rock, jazz, funk and not to mention Diexie gets in the legs.Also I miss lowell george with his voice and his bottelneckguitar and especially R. hayward on the drums .. By J. Amatrading on a live album hayward plays super ...
Jim Harte you're right my friend ! Craig gave them some awesome vocals I think he wrote some good tunes on this rocking album. What a jump from Pure Prairie League to Little Feat !
#1 ensemble bass player all time. “Do not be deceived by nor take lightly this bit of musicianship to which one refers simply as ‘bass’.” -The Great Lowell Thomas George
For several years I was the PA announcer / music man for a local high school at their basketball games. I regularly played this song. The crowd really loved it. A great song with a great beat that people really responded to.
God I loved this band!!!! One of the coolest and best live bands; so badly missed. Thank you for all the great tunes guys:) ...And that sexy brunette hitching a ride is GORGEOUS:)
Went to see Feat 10/19/19 in Troy NY. Guy sitting next to me told me Paul was off the road and in the hospital in CA and wouldn't be performing. Little did I know, Paul would be dead exactly a week later. This being one of my favorite LF tunes and featuring Paul prominently, I thought it was a good place to leave my condolences. Thanks for all the great nights (and a few days) of awesome Little Feat shows! They will remain in my memories until I meet you on that beach. Rest in Peace, Paul.
little feat is one of those rare bands,that on your worst day when life is falling apart around you.by the middle of the song you find your foot tapping on time to the music.& by the end of the song your smiling for no appearent reason.that requires a very special collection of talented musicians.will allways love little feat for that reason alone.
There are certain songs that take me back to a specific place in time, Let it Roll is large in my memory for that point in time and memory for me. God bless Little Feat for the sound track of my life
Bill Payne is amazing - playing both Hammond organ and piano well. It's a rare musician who can do that; the technique for each instrument is completely different 3:45 that piano bass walk is epic
I love this song (and the Feats) so much that we named our band, Let it Roll and of course we perform this song, brass and all. Long live the Feats... and we wish Ritchie as speedy recovery. Cheers.
@@procopiojrpalacios9702 Absolutely! Saw them in Hampton Roads, VA in '75 ... just before the release of "Waiting for Columbus" ... Lowell was in awesome form ... "Tower of Power" horns were along, best show ever!
@@321snoot I always felt like Lowell's abilities went highly underrated. So sad his early departure from this world. He could get the best out of everyone nearly every time they played. The last show I saw was their 50th Anniversary tour in Jax. It started off slow, as Paul Barerre was battling cancer. They had a horn section ... though it wasn't T.O.P. However, once they got going ... it was FEAT! Paul did an awesome job for many years filling in on slide guitar in Lowell's absence. These days ... with George, Hayward and Barerre gone ... I doubt it sounds anything like I remember. God rest their souls. I'm hoping to catch up with them again once I reach the other side.
@@gunndish When I think of Little Feat, I think of Lowell at the helm - not any of the front men/women who replaced him. After he passed I knew it wouldn't have "really" sounded like Little Feat. (Yes, Roll with It is great, but different.) I've seen the newest version on TV. The new members are very good but, to be honest, It doesn't sound much like the Little Feat of old, to the point where I didn't even want to hear anymore. It was like a different band - dare I say it: almost like a "tribute" band - playing Feat's songs. I hope you do catch up with the boys down the line, and I don't mean that in a morbid way. (I did meet Paul a year before he passed away and thanked him for his music. Shook my hand and thanked me back. Just the nicest, friendliest guy.) Be good, my friend.
Saw this tour. Neville Bros opened to boot. Too young to see them with Lowell. But the show, this tune, and the album showed LF had life after LG's death. Craig Fuller admirably filled big shoes for the comeback. Their brand of Southern boogie-and-blues rock remained vital, at least for this disc and tour.
Richie Hayward,their drummer,would have been 75 today.Let it Roll is off of their 1988 album,Let it Roll.I'd put them on par with the Grateful Dead,the Band and the Allman Brothers Band-throw in the Eagles,too-that's Paul Barrere[R.I.P.] doing the singing on this. Band members: Paul Barrère - guitar, vocals Sam Clayton - percussion, vocals Craig Fuller - vocals, button accordion and sometimes guitar (first album with group) Kenny Gradney - bass guitar Richie Hayward - drums, vocals Bill Payne - keyboards, vocals Fred Tackett - guitar, mandolin, trumpet (first album as group member)
Until now I haven't shared any LF videos that didn't have Lowell in 'em. That changes now. Feat is still going strong and still one-a my favorite bands....since about 1974. Let it Roll!!
I was actually at Little Feat's most recent concert- at the State Theater in Portland, Maine just ten days ago. There, Bill Payne announced that Paul Barrere was absent because his doctor advised him to take a load off. And lo and behold, he died just a few days later. Such a shame. It made me want to check this video out again as it was the song that introduced me to the group. Rest in peace, Paul.
I'm an old Canadian guitar picker (74 and counting), still playing and healthy thank God. But this tune? We learned it way back when it was new, and now, with my latest group, we're learning it again. Just a great band with the ability to rock the house. Always will be a fav of mine!!!

Wow, that must have been a great night of music!! Lucky you!
without doubt - The best band ever. period. love them. RIP Ritchie Lowell & Paul

One of music's most under-rated band.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but when this song came out I heard it on the radio constantly in Northern California
@@curtisgibbons1078 the stations I worked at weren't formatted for rock. I t wasn't until years after this song was a hit, I worked at a rock station but this song was never on the playlist. I could never understand why. It's too good to be ignored.
WMMS in Cleveland gave this quite a bit airplay back in the day
@@curtisgibbons1078 Portland's KINK radio had it in heavy rotation. Made me buy it on warm, wonderful vinyl. Still have it.
RIP Paul Barrere. Your songs, voice, and guitar brought joy to many and will carry on.
RIP.
Rave On Paul Barrere ...
Waiting For Columbus imho is among the top 3 live albums of all time, along with Frampton Comes Alive....these guys have been kicking a** for 45+ years!!
These guys are just so damn good. They never let their incredibly high standards slip.
agreed
One of the qualities of Little Feat over the years is their endurance as a band. As I write we have lost Little Feat spiritual leader Paul Barrere. Little Feat's spirit to revitalize their music muse has always appealed to me and certainly others with the 80"s resurgence of the band. And in my opinion they can continue the the next chapter should they choose to do so. With established and notable musicians for example Larry Campbell, Amy Helm, David Bromberg , Bonnie Raitt and others ALL could continue the legacy style and musicianship of Little Feat.
Great song, great video, the best group I ever saw live and the greatest drummer, Richie Hayward
Great horn stuff and serious rockabilly. Little Feat was a great band,
Love this, so much energy! What a great band.
Little Feat is a great band ,theyve been around for decades ,sad to hear Ritchie Hayward has passed ,he was one of the best drummers, he had that unique groove thats really hard to emulate , but I hope the band carries on ,..after Lowell George died in the 80s ,the critics said that was it for Little Feat ....but you just cant keep a good band down,.. mark it a great band , Long live Little Feat
Paul Barrere passed today - October 26, 2019..."say Hi! to Lowell for us" & R.I.P.
Amen....
Amen to that. Great players, great band.
Your comment had to set up a tear. Immortal through their music.
Wow. Terrible. RIP.

Rock on you , Diamond. 👍
bravo- ritchie was a friend and my favorite drummer
GOD, they'd just lost Lowell and came back with this...so much fun and spirit with a touch of ZZ vid...yeah, Richie was THE drummer!
Scott where you from? Mn.?
I mean that in a nice way. knew a Scott Thomas from MN. no biggie.
It breaks my heart that most people don't understand who incredibly musically complex this song is.
... on of the most technical and inspirational west coast/country-rock/jazzy band to me... They still make my day!
Little Feat. Really fine.
This band has touched any musician who is anybody. These guys are players players. Lowell George did create a monster. Little Feats music is the perfect distillation.
One of my favorite's songs of all time. The energy is intoxicating.
One of my favorite songs. Hearing them jam this live for about 10 minutes is an unreal experience.
Only bad thing is it's the last song of the night.
Cum taste good
5😢😮😮😅😊
I love this video showing Richie having a blast....miss you and Lowell, man

a lot more than half. haha.
A lot more than half.

One of the best damm songs Ever
AMEN to that opinion David Hernandez!!!! I saw them when they toured for this album release. 👍
God I loved this band!!!! One of the coolest and best live bands; so badly missed. Thank you for all the great tunes guys:) ...And that sexy brunette hitching a ride is GORGEOUS:)
I remember this song playing in the intro of the 1989 Winston Cup night race at Bristol on ESPN. Very fitting. May still have it on VHS somewhere.
Saw them do this live. An amazingly tight ensemble. Damn

Playing this song while driving...will get you a speeding ticket.
There should be a disclaimer at the beginning of the video stating this
Rick Davis my dad plays this while driving and he never gets a speeding ticket.
Maybe he should drive faster than 25 then
Rick Davis I wad strapped in a Bonneville salt flats car getting ready to stand on the gas for a land speed record listening to" let it roll "
Now you tell me, SUCK!!!! LOL

Little Feat mastered boogie!
Classic evolution of Boogie and Rock 4:33 isn't enough, Rock On!
The percussionist with that deep voice using it like an instrument to mirror the bass - pure gold! (Doo bop bop)
Sam Clayton, oh yeah!
I can't get enough of these guys! And as I'm new to the table, there's so many brilliant songs to discover!
teenage nervous breakdown... I was doing ninety in a volkswagon at the end of the song before I realized it... the boys could play!!!
Check it ALL out brother. Lowell George with that slide guitar. Make your head spin.
Rest in peace Mr. Paul Barrere. May the fair winds fill your sails.
Lowell would be so happy to see how this band has evolved over decades since he left the building. High standards then, and even greater now.
a perfect arrangement, harmonies, bass,and you name it!
What a tight band ! I love the brass and the Video rocks too
Love Lowell George, love the Feat and especially love the Feat with Craig Fuller !
There are certain songs that take me back to a specific place in time, Let it Roll is large in my memory for that point in time and memory for me. God bless Little Feat for the sound track of my life
Great Song! Great Band!
Best of the best of the best. Let It Roll, boys, my all time, ALL TIME, favorite. Yeeeeeeah!
You left out a "best" ;0)
I am old school , Oakland Cal. The bay 1970s. Lowell and Brothers. !!!!!!!! Man these Cats were SOOOOOO FUCKING GOOOOOOD/ HOT!!!!!!!!!
These guys are great. What a band!
Bill Payne is amazing - playing both Hammond organ and piano well. It's a rare musician who can do that; the technique for each instrument is completely different
3:45 that piano bass walk is epic
Saw them at.Universal Amphitheatre with the Allman Bros. In 1988, the years this album was released. Unforgettable
You know if this was played live in a club the dance floor would be full.
What Southern Rock is all about
If this song doesn’t get your head boppin and your blood pressure up.. time to call the coroner!
When I was driving convoys in Iraq, this was one of the songs that kept me rolling.
At that time hope you were riding in style M1 Abrams.
Whaaat. Thought Think Under STL Arch
@@michaelkalinoski7998 Nope, driving all over Iraq in a Mercedes cab over with no armor. Fun times.

Let it Roll wherever you are Paul! Thanks for the great ride. RIP🎸
DAMNNNNN!!!!WHO plays like that anymore??
You gotta Love Dixie Chicken, and Fat Man in the Bathtub, OH so good,❤
This my friends is one hell of a good tune.
Tight band...kind of tune that gets you blood pumping and your feet tapping. Drop the top, crank it up, hit the road....end up SMILIN'.
Is this a killer cruisin' tune or what people?!!!!
THE BEST LIVE BAND EVER! I dare anyone to challenge ....
They were even better with the great Lowell George leading the way with his bluesy voice, awesome guitar work and songwriting...!

such a fun band to watch live
such a fun to have partyed with at shows,1977-84
saw little feat at byron bay bluesfest around2003 or 4 they were fantastic ,and they played twice during the festival on seperate days, ! superduper!
A musician’s band! Doesn’t get much better than this in terms of musicianship!
RIP Paul...Great talent and Great man !
The music from 70‘s, 80‘s and 90’is something else. Obviously
Just beautiful. I love the way the piano takes the dominant bass part.
Saw this tour. Neville Bros opened to boot. Too young to see them with Lowell. But the show, this tune, and the album showed LF had life after LG's death. Craig Fuller admirably filled big shoes for the comeback. Their brand of Southern boogie-and-blues rock remained vital, at least for this disc and tour.
Richie Hayward,their drummer,would have been 75 today.Let it Roll is off of their 1988 album,Let it Roll.I'd put them on par with the Grateful Dead,the Band and the Allman Brothers Band-throw in the Eagles,too-that's Paul Barrere[R.I.P.] doing the singing on this.
Band members:
Paul Barrère - guitar, vocals
Sam Clayton - percussion, vocals
Craig Fuller - vocals, button accordion and sometimes guitar (first album with group)
Kenny Gradney - bass guitar
Richie Hayward - drums, vocals
Bill Payne - keyboards, vocals
Fred Tackett - guitar, mandolin, trumpet (first album as group member)
Makes me always nod my head to this, great tune great band.

They ain't and that's just wrong
They ain't. And there is.

I moved the Oz, one thing i missed was little feat in SF every NYE
Side 1, Track 1 of my Desert Island CD !!
Until now I haven't shared any LF videos that didn't have Lowell in 'em. That changes now. Feat is still going strong and still one-a my favorite bands....since about 1974. Let it Roll!!
One of the baddest jams ever Recorded, Little Feat Wow
I was actually at Little Feat's most recent concert- at the State Theater in Portland, Maine just ten days ago. There, Bill Payne announced that Paul Barrere was absent because his doctor advised him to take a load off. And lo and behold, he died just a few days later. Such a shame. It made me want to check this video out again as it was the song that introduced me to the group. Rest in peace, Paul.
Thanks for sharing THIS one...Prolly my alltime fave!
We'll miss you, Paul. You guys kick it!
Put this cd/song in my Blazer... 800 watts of JL on saw... Let's go cruise!
