Why This CD Matters
Sneakin' Sally Through The Alley was Robert Palmer’s 1974 debut solo album, recorded with musicians associated with the Meters and Little Feat. Its opening sequence links Little Feat’s “Sailing Shoes,” Palmer’s “Hey Julia,” and the Allen Toussaint-penned title track. Produced by Steve Smith, the album established the rock, soul, funk, and R&B mixture that characterized Palmer’s early solo work.
