Artist:  Little Feat

Title:  Time Loves a Hero

Date:  1977

Label:  Warner Bros.   BS 3015

Cover Art By:  Neon Park

Notes:  While this may not be one of the best albums they produced there's something about it that I like. The music is consistent and the song selection is full of the boogie feeling we've grown to know. And if you look at the cast of players there's a bit of a Doobie's connection here as well. The cover painting is uncredited. The soft focus style and subject matter give it a "south of the border" feeling.
