Feets, Don't Fail Me Now is the twenty-seventh album by jazz pianist Herbie Hancock. The record was released on January 1, 1979, via Columbia Records label.
It was the first of his albums to discard jazz and funk completely in favor of a more commercial (at the time) disco sound, spotlighting vocoder effects and repetitive lyrics. All LP and CD editions after the first pressing uses 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.
