The tribe, which lives in a remote corner of Ethiopia's Omo Valley, is home to an unusual ritual which sees young men gorge on cow's blood and milk in a bid to be crowned the fattest man. Six months after starting the regime, the men emerge to show off their newly engorged physiques and for a winner to be chosen.
Death Comes for the Fat Man
The champion fat man is then feted as a hero for the rest of his life. Now the little known rite is the subject of incredible photos taken by French shutterbug Eric Lafforgue - who spent time with the Bodi while travelling through south-western Ethiopia during the run up to the Bodi New Year or Ka'el ceremony. Hero: Every child wants to become one of the fat men, according to Lafforgue, who are feted as heroes by the rest of the tribe for their incredible feat.
Competition: On the day of the Ka'el ceremony, the tribe's fat men walk for hours around a sacred tree, watched by other men and helped out by the women. Challenge: The feat begins six months before the Ka'el ceremony when participants retire to their huts where they stay, while the women bring them food. Too much! A Bodi man finds that his morning bowl of blood and milk is a little too much and is ill outside his hut - watched by a baffled-looking herd of cows. Regime: Each competitor is nominated by his family who then spend the next six months helping him to fatten up on a diet of cow's blood and milk.
Sadly, the Ka'el ritual and the Bodi's traditional way of life is under threat from the Ethiopian government who plan to resettle , people from all over the country on their lands. For now, the tribe continue as they always have, and still celebrate Ka'el in traditional style each June. The contest begins six months before the ceremony.

Every family is allowed to present an unmarried man for the challenge, who, after being chosen, retires to his hut and must not move or have sex for the duration. Food comes in the form of a cow's blood and milk mixture, served regularly to the men by women from the village. Because of the scorching temperatures, the men have to drink the two-litre bowl of blood and milk quickly before it coagulates but as Lafforgue reveals, not everyone can handle drinking so much at speed. The place is invaded by flies.
The man must drink it quickly before it coagulates but some cannot drink everything and vomit it. On the day itself, the men cover their bodies with clay and ashes before emerging from their huts for the walk to the spot where the ceremony will take place. Payne began working some rollicking syncopated licks into his keyboard playing and Hayward reined in his drumming to leave space for Clayton's conga embellishments and Gradney's superbly understated bass lines Lowell wasn't kidding when he wrote in the liner notes to Feats, Don't Fail Me Now, "do not be deceived by nor take lightly this bit of musicianship that one describes simply as bass".
The sound is heavily textured, the music locked into the same loping mid-tempo backbeat and the lyrics primarily sagebrush sagas of a lonely dude trying to get laid down below the borderline. There is an overall sameness to the record that makes it work as a total entity but only"Long Distance Love" and"All That You Dream" are really distinctive songs that you could walk around humming to yourself. So, in keeping perfectly in tune with Little Feat's peculiar sense of logic, "Time Loves A Hero" is as stylistically scattered as its predecessor was unified.
What is ThatMan on Fatman?
This is really first time that the band has failed to develop a cohesive group sound out of the diverse elements that make up their music. The other unusual factor is that Lowell George, probably due to working on his solo album, seems curiously out of place here. Some of his musical trademarks--notably the atmospheric slick guitar and double-tracked vocals--simply don't fit in and the entire album bears the creative stamp of Payne and Barrere far more than the man most people identify with Little Feat.
That said, "Hero" is yet another in a long succession of excellent Little Feat albums. The album's twin highlights provide the best example of the wide range of musical sources the Feats are capable of drawing from. It's probably that very ability to jump from one end of the musical spectrum to the other that has kept the Feats from getting their just due, popularity-wise.
Their creative muse is simply so restless that they never stay in one place--the trades still haven't figured out what to call them-- long enough for people to catch up with them. If you've been along for the entire ride, the constant creativity is one of their most endearing features but it does make it a bit difficult for people to hop on along the way.
