He made a guest appearance on their 1996 live album Live From Neon Park. He is one of several guest artists on Little Feat's 2008 album Join the Band duetting with percussionist Sam Clayton on the Lowell George classic "Spanish Moon."
Fuller reformed Pure Prairie League in 1998. This incarnation recorded one album, All In Good Time, released in 2005.
Fuller opened for and sat in with Little Feat on New Year's Eve 2011 at the Fillmore in Silver Spring, Maryland, when the band performed their live album Waiting for Columbus in its entirety.
