Rooster Rag is the fifteenth album by American rock band Little Feat released in June 2012, on the Hot Tomato label.

Four of the songs were written by former Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter in collaboration with keyboard player Bill Payne, now the only musician to have played with every line-up of the group.

Surprisingly, Paul Barrere, the group's main writer/singer, was only credited with writing on one track, although his usual co-author Fred Tackett contributed four songs, all of which have appeared on his solo albums, but not all of which he sang lead on here.

Still, with help from Grateful Dead lyricist Robert Hunter, they’re solid enough and the veteran band sounds fresh, inspired and revived if not exactly young and hungry on their first studio album of original material in twelve years and after losing irreplaceable founding drummer Ritchie Heyward.

The blanket presence of Paul Barrere's underrated slide guitar causes this disc to reveal that these seasoned musicians can still draw from their peers.
