Wow, didn't know about this Feat/EWF connection (from FB):
With 2023 and all that portends for the hope and promise for Little Feat, we were reminded recently of our past by the passing of one who brought a lot of joy to our lives. Freddie White played drums with us for a brief while in the 70s. He brought a great feel to the band, along with some memorable jams he and I had that provided a musical form for “Day At The Dog Races.” Freddie went on to play with his brothers in Earth, Wind and Fire. And while Little Feat morns his loss, we also salute him as having been one of our brothers, too. With all love and respect to Freddie White (67 years old). Bill Payne
