Precious Little is an album by British blues musician Jeremy Spencer, who was a member of Fleetwood Mac from 1967-71. Released in 2006 (see 2006 in music), this is his fourth official solo album (his first since 1979) and was released on the Bluestown Records label.
The album was recorded in five days in Norway, and local musicians were used to back Spencer on all tracks, because he believed that "they have retained the 'purity' of the old blues in their playing." Most of the tracks were self-penned, with the addition of covers of songs by Elmore James and Slim Rhodes.
