Phish will cover Little Feat’s 1978 live album Waiting For Columbus this evening, according to a Phishbill handed out to fans. The double album includes “Time Love A Hero,” a song Phish covered regularly in the 1980s. The band revived the song in 1998, 2002 and, most recently, in 2010. The album also features favorites like “Dixie Chicken” and “Spanish Moon.” Phish has also covered Allen Toussaint’s “On Your Way Down” – a song Little Feat made famous – many times.

In the program, written by rock critic David Fricke, Trey Anastasio explains, “We may have learned more from Little Feat than any other band.” Little Feat drummer and co-founder Richie Hayward died this past August. and Phish drummer Jon Fishman offers a tribute to him in the Phishbill. The album’s classic jam mixture of boogie and funky rock-and-roll fits with Phish’s current style.

Joining the group will be the Antibalas horns, who are in the same extended family of players as Sharon Jones who joined Phish last Halloween.
