That's a drawback only in retrospect - it's hard not to wish that the last album George completed had more of his own songs - but Lowell was a first-rate interpreter, so even covers of Allen Toussaint ('What Do You Want the Girl to Do'), Ann Peebles ('I Can't Stand the Rain') and Rickie Lee Jones ('Easy Money') wind up sounding of piece with the original songs. Out of the nine songs on the album, only three are originals, and they're all collaborations. George wasn't in good health during the sessions for Thanks, which you wouldn't tell by his engaging performances, but from the lack of new tunes. Instead, he picks up where Dixie Chicken left off (he even reworks that album's standout 'Two Trains'), turning in a laid-back, organic collection of tunes equal parts New Orleans R&B, country, sophisticated blues, and pop. Lowell George never cared for jazz-fusion, so it should be little surprise that there's none to be heard on Thanks. Thanks I'll Eat it Here is strikingly different from the fusion-leanings of Little Feat's last studio album, Time Loves a Hero. The label even released a reissue of the obscure Glory album and offered deluxe vinyl pressings of most of the CDs as well.

The Italian reissue imprint Akarma re-released all of the Damnation of Adam Blessing's albums in the early to mid-2000s as either straight-up re-releases or with additional bonus tracks.

In 1973, the group renamed itself Glory, releasing a self-titled LP on the UA subsidiary Avalanche before disbanding. Second Damnation followed a year later, generating the minor hit 'Back to the River' with their third album, 1971's Which Is Justice, Which Is the Thief, Schwark was replaced by Blessing's drummer brother Ken Constable. After months of relentless local gigging - often as the opener for hometown heroes the James Gang - the Damnation of Adam Blessing signed to United Artists and issued their self-titled debut LP in 1969, followed by a tour in support of the Faces. Cleveland acid rock combo the Damnation of Adam Blessing was formed in 1968 from the ashes of a pair of local garage bands, the Society and Dust led by frontman Adam Blessing (Bill Constable), the group also included guitarists Jim Quinn and Bob Kalamasz, bassist Ray Benich, and drummer Bill Schwark.
