The Vinyl Countdown # 13

Little Feat, Time Loves A Hero (1977)
It was only recently that I was bemoaning the fact that I didn’t have all of the classic-era albums by Little Feat. Love that band. You read a word you’ve never read before – or hear someone say it and next thing it’s everywhere and you can’t work out if it’s suddenly in vogue or if it was always there and you just weren’t previously aware of it, right? Well, on the day I mentioned that I had to find the final Feat album I wanted that had thus far evaded me I walk into a record store and there it is. I’m not even – consciously – looking for it. But it’s the first album in the ‘L’ section on that day. Maybe it always was. Maybe it had always been there. Anyway, what an album and now I have the set that I want. Such a band!

Sample Track: Rocket It In My Pocket
The Vinyl Countdown is a document of every LP I listen to, brand new discoveries and old-old favourites; extremely pre-loved, previously abandoned or with the shrink-wrap having just been removed it’s all here at The Vinyl Countdown
