Little Feat will release a deluxe edition of their classic 1978 album Waiting for Columbus, in honor of the live LP’s 45th anniversary.
The new eight-CD box set, which features previously unheard live recordings, is scheduled for release on July 29 and will include a newly remastered version of the original double album, plus material from three 1977 concerts: Manchester at Manchester City Hall on July 29, London at the Rainbow on Aug. 2 and Washington D.C. at the Lisner Auditorium on Aug. 10. The super deluxe edition of the collection also includes a reissue of the Japanese 7” single for “Oh Atlanta.” The set is currently available for preorder.
You can view a complete track listing below.
Waiting for Columbus was originally released on Feb. 10, 1978, and featured music from all six studio albums the band had released from 1971 to 1977. Backed by the Tower of Power horn section, the classic live record was one of Little Feat’s best-selling albums, reaching No. 18 on the Billboard 200.
Little Feat are currently on the road with the Waiting for Columbus 45th Anniversary Tour. A full list of their show dates can be found on their website.
