Since their formation in 1969 Little Feat have played an eclectic blend of rock and roll, blues, R&B, boogie, country, folk, gospel, soul, funk and jazz fusion influences. They still tour constantly, and still play songs from these albums, notably the title tracks, New Delhi Freight Train and Old Folks Boogie .

These two albums from 1977 and 1979, were Little Feat s last two studio albums with Lowell George, Down On The Farm
being completed after George s death in June 1979.
