Feets, Don't Fail Me Now is the twenty-seventh album by jazz pianist Herbie Hancock. The record was released in February 1979, on the Columbia Records label.

Overview

This was the first of Hancock's albums to discard jazz and funk completely in favor of a more commercial (at the time) disco sound, with vocoder effects and repetitive lyrics. All LP and CD editions after the first pressing use an alternate version of "Tell Everybody". The original version was included as a bonus track on the disc in the Complete Columbia Albums Collection box set.
