I like that, will have to check that guy out more.
Here’s you some Little Feat live in Jamaica. I went to their Fan Camp and partied with them four years in a row in Negril. It was a blast with concerts on the beach every night with lots of guest pickers.
The only way to live, slow and easy! 
No shit! I have been a Feat fan since the late 70s! Lowell George wrote the soundtrack to my life! I would love to smoke a fat one with you and hear about that experience of a lifetime! Roll 'em Easy bro! 
Nice selection.
It put me in mind of another dead French
composer.
And everyone knows this piece:
Oh man! I wish you were here! You would see a 65 year old man with tears streaming down my face over a music video! You know what I mean! Thank you for that! Everyone needs a good cry now and then. Much Love…
This time it ain’t much about music, pay attention to the date in their title instead:
From “Emerald Forest and the Blackbird” (2012), as a tribute to Peter Steele.
April 14th and the sabbath is near.
The ground is trembling,
weakened by the longest winter.
These are the last steps
of the frost giants as they leave.
An April moon is rising as the trees turn to rust.
Killing season comes in shades of gray.
An April moon is rising as the spring turns to dust.
We lie down to a howling sound
as the world is slowly coming down.
Bless me, ghosts of winter,
for you have made me stronger,
to face this day and ever nights,
further north our paths will go.
South is burning, east is vast,
west is dying fast.
But as I leave,
my heart holds no fear;
I know there’s nothing from here.
An April moon is rising as the trees turn to rust.
Killing season comes in shades of gray.
An April moon is rising as the spring turns to dust.
We lie down to a howling sound…
On the altar of endless snow,
on a deep glacier’s glow,
we prepare our graves.
Here under the north star I will sleep away,
to the deep hum of your icy womb.
April 14th, and death is here,
the tide has finally turned.
The ground is trembling,
weakened by the longest winter.
These are the last steps
of the frost giants as they leave.
But my heart holds no fear;
for I know there’s nothing from here…
A few years later this brief message was found (via instagram, i think), addressed to the StS keyboardist Aleksi Munter:
doomlord.sod: « Aleksi, is the devastating news true about Aleah? » (2016-Apr-14)
Now keep in mind that Aleah Liane Stanbridge (who died on April 18th of 2016) actually worked with Swallow the Sun that same year when Aleksi played “April 14th” with his band…
Honestly i feel most clueless as i can only imagine his disbelief when informed in 2016 on his iPhone that she was critically ill, presumably. It must have been a serious shock to the survivors as it turns out mister Munter left the band around that sad period…
Sad but fascinating.

Another schematic showing the connections between Juha Raivio and his bands would have helped as well.
The truth which i initially felt transpiring through that music finally proved to exceed my expectations. Apparently i’d have to comment there were auto-biographic elements from 2 significantly different creators who mutually enhanced each other’s art, eventually, until one of them received a cancer diagnostic late in 2013, but not before they became a couple. To me this sheads light on their mutual transmutations and yet it remains a complicated situation. Not to mention it’s as if they teased death and it took them by surprise when it happened to bite them back…
Alone i wouldn’t find neither of them utterly exceptional, but together their brute talents matured to a point it causes me to miss that which i ignored before. Looking at a recent video i suspect the widower may be doomed to loose his way - exactly as he wrote in his last song on the Hallatar album, possibly inspired by Aleah’s sense of beauty in shape and words.
Their common symbolic universe emerged as a frosted forest, where tears turned into emeralds and sirens deceived lost sailor to eat them, etc. The loss seems immense in every way, i’d recommend having some background on Aleah’s early vocation:

Take note of the date Aleah’s team album was finally ready, enjoy these samples:
[ treesofeternity.bandcamp.com/ ]
Trees of Eternity, Hour of the Nightingale (2016-Nov-11)
Hour of the Nightingale (5:35)
A Million Tears (7:13)
Black Ocean (7:01)
Then her lover’s tribute, with his guiding light gone forever…
[ hallatar.bandcamp.com ]
Hallatar, “No Stars Upon The Bridge” (2017-Oct-20)
Mirrors (7:09)
My Mistake, with Heike Langhans (6:44)
Dreams Burn Down, with Aleah (6:32)
Use with caution as it could risk “cracking your shell” where it bleeds…
I miss guys like Lowell George, Guy Clark, Tom Petty, Townes Van Zandt, Blaze Foley, all so important in my life. Thanks @ganjajuana, you got me in a groove that makes me feel sooooo old! But I like it!
I find it rather off putting when lyrics are posted here. One can assume that the poster is familiar with lyrics as that is the “message” of the music. If the lyrics are not distinguishable by listening to the composition, then hold on to your interpretation as your own and spare us.
I also enjoy the work of Little Feat, and especially that of Lowell George…so much so, that I named one of my St.Bernard puppies after him.
Here is my Lowell as a puppy:
Sadly, big Lowell is no longer with me.
I miss my good boy.
RIP Lowell.
Oops, forgot!

Some enjoyable tunes from the Human Lowell:
Salutations OleSkool830,
Too bad. I’m assuming it’s more convenient to ignore than having to search for it: i’ve always favoured inclusive scenarios.
Personally i don’t normally appreciate much being imposed a scenery neither, but this is part of what those groups do and i certainly respect the widower’s own determination to honour the work of his lost companion.
E.G. more frustrations coming your way…
Good day, have fun!!

Touche my brother! Nothing personal of course. My comments aren’t exclusively directed toward you my friend. Just a generalisation. Much love and respect…
Hi again Oleskool830,
Well i’d certainly share the opinion that lyrics would fit best after being wrapped as “spoilers”, to help clean the output as displayed on portable devices. What happens is that relatively to the contributions of Aleah Stanbridge i’m still trying to disperse my own confusing perceptions around what’s supposed to be her influence/legacy to StS, for example.
It’s not even clear if some recurrent hints are rooted in real past dynamics or simply a result of synergies and coïncidence. Hence i was thinking i might wish to post more of what i find in an eventual future…
Good day, have fun!!
start sifting…
