Long Distance Love: A Sweet Relief Tribute to Lowell George

£15.99

Released: 26th July 2024. Lowell George was the guitar virtuoso, vocalist, and songwriter for Little Feat. In this collection of 25 songs, artists such as Elvis Costello, Ben Harper and Dave Alvin interpret and perform his diverse catalogue. George, born in Hollywood, California, was a member of Frank Zappa's Mothers of Invention before leaving that band and forming Little Feat with Bill Payne. Lowell's tenure in the band was for seven years until his death, and during that time they released eight albums. While George died in 1979, his legacy lives on through this album. Sweet Relief, the organization who provide financial assistance to all types of career musicians and music industry workers who are struggling to make ends meet, have come up with a gem. This comprehensive compilation rigorously explores the profound musical journey of Lowell George, offering an in-depth retrospective of his work, featuring some of George's most iconic tracks, remastered for exceptional audio quality.
