Bio:

Foghat are an English rock band formed in London in 1971. The band is known for its prominent use of electric slide guitar in its music.The band has achieved 8 gold records, one platinum and one double platinum record, and despite several lineup changes, continues to record and perform to the present day.The band initially featured Dave Peverett ("Lonesome Dave") on guitar and vocals, Tony Stevens on bass, and Roger Earl on drums when they left Savoy Brown in 1970. Rod Price on guitar/slide guitar joined after he left the Black Cat Bones in December 1970. The new line-up was named "Foghat" (a nonsense word from a childhood game played by Peverett and his brother) in January 1971. Their 1972 album, Foghat was produced by Dave Edmunds and had a cover of Willie Dixon's "I Just Want to Make Love to You", which received much airplay, especially on FM stations. Additional tracks on this initial offering include a remake of the Savoy Brown bluesy ode to the road "Leavin' Again (Again!)" and "Sarah Lee", a classic blues burner featuring Rod Price's slide guitar solo. The band's second self-titled album was also known as Rock and Roll for its cover photo of a rock and a bread roll, and it went gold. Energized came out in 1974, followed by Rock and Roll Outlaws and Fool for the City in 1975, the year that Stevens left the band after objecting to their endless touring schedule. Stevens was replaced temporarily by producer Nick Jameson in 1975 when the band recorded Fool for the City. In the next year, Jameson was replaced by Craig MacGregor and the group produced Night Shift in 1976, a live album in 1977, and Stone Blue in 1978, each reaching "gold" record sales. Fool for the City spawned the hit single "Slow Ride" (which reached #20 in the US), but the greatest sales figures were for Live, which sold over 2,000,000 copies. More hits followed: "Drivin' Wheel"; "I Just Want to Make Love to You" (from the live album); "Stone Blue"; and "Third Time Lucky (First Time I Was a Fool)". Rod Price left the band in November 1980, unhappy with the group's still constant touring and the shift away from their hard boogie sound towards a more new-wave-influenced pop direction. After months of auditions he was replaced by Erik Cartwright by February 1981.On 9 July 2013, the band released a single called "The Word of Rock n' Roll", a Christmas song (an instrumental version of "Winter Wonderland") on 5 November 2013, and released a new DVD (Live in St. Pete) in December 2013.November 10, 2015 Foghat announced they would start making a new studio album and the album will be completely fan-funded through a PledgeMusic Campaign. The album will be titled Under The Influence and has a tentative release date for June 24, 2016. "We have several new songs, a couple of Savoy Brown songs, and a couple of ‘covers’ and we are very excited about this record!"

Album:

You really can't count a vintage rock band out. Surely keeping a regular presence on the radio in the 1970s with hits like "Fool For The City," "Stone Blue," and "Slow Ride," Foghat were a rockin' foursome to be reckoned with back in the day. Though these road warriors has seen some big personnel changes over the years, Foghat, led by sole original member, drummer and captain of their bluesy boogie-woogie ship Roger Earl, has an album out for 2016 called Under The Influence, which has debuted on Billboard's "Hard Rock Albums" chart at #17. Not bad for a 45-year-old institution.Under the Influence features the longest running incarnation of Foghat, a tighter-than-tight lineup featuring Earl, lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Charlie Huhn, lead and slide guitarist Bryan Bassett and bassist Craig MacGregor (who has been with the Hat since 1976) make for a damn formidable group of heavy hard hitters with high style. From the opening slide-led title track, to the swampy stomp of the longing-for-love stomper "Ghost" (Huhn sounding especially great on this one), to the blues of "She's Got A Ring In His Nose," we are in familiar territory with this rock and blues concoction.The cover of Marvin Gaye's "Heard It Through The Grapevine" doesn't quite measure up to the high bar set by Creedence Clearwater Revival, and the "Slow Ride" remake wasn't entirely necessary. But if you yearn for the riffing interplay between Huhn and Bassett, MacGregor holding down the bottom end, and Earl hitting as hard as he did in 70s ("Heart Gone Cold," with its women-done-bad-to-men lyrics, is filled with all the essential elements), Under The Influence is classic Foghat.

Line Up:

Bryan Bassett – lead, slide guitar, background vocals

Craig MacGregor - bass

Album:

Foghat is now, and has always been, an energetic live band.Sure, this band has created many solid studio efforts, but let’s face it...even their most successful LP was the one that said “LIVE” on the cover! This is a band that just can’t help ‘giving it their all’ onstage. The current lineup, featuring founding member and drummer Roger Earl, slide guitarist extraordinaire Brian Bassett, guitarist and lead vocalist Charlie Huhn and Lord Nasty- bassist Rodney O’Quinn, all deliver big. These musicians simply know no other way. It should be noted that O’Quinn is performing in this band as the permanent ‘fill-in’ while the long-time beloved member Craig MacGregor is courageously battling health problems. Rodney comes to Foghat via the Pat Travers Band where he proved he knows how to lay down a solid groove... and snort whiskey.This album was recorded on August 11, 2016 at the Belly Up tavern in Northern San Diego County. So… this is just another night on the road for the band that is always on the road. That is what I love about the ‘Hat… these dudes will play like their lives depend on it whether in a club, state fair, or in front of 15,000 classic rockers at the Moondance Jam festival in Minnesota each July. These guys simply can’t help themselves... and we are talking some damn fine hardcore boogie rock here! On this release, the track list includes “Slow Ride,” “Fool for the City” and “California Blues/I Just Wanna Make Love to You.” The latter is a two-for-one slab of rockin’ glee that shows no mercy to those with negative attitudes. This offering demonstrates all that was, is and shall ever be that is right about this band. Foghat is out on the road across our great nation promoting their latest studio effort Under the Influence. That album continues the band’s tradition of catchy hooks, fun lyrics and killer guitar solos. The Belly Up live album features spirited tracks from the new album, including the title track, as well as “Knock It Off” and “Hot Mama.” The new tunes fit right in with the old, making this a fun album from start to finish.Hell… this band is so fun when they play live they could put out a new offering each month from different venues and I’d listen! AND...check their tour dates on http://foghat.net/ and see when they will be playing close to you, as they are just as much fun to see performing live as they are listening to these great discs.

Album:

At the end of last year Rock Candy Records released their Remastered & Reloaded version of Britain’s FOGHAT classic “Fool For The City“, their first platinum album and features, along with the title track, their signature song “Slow Ride”.Foghat clocked up a considerable number of tour miles after relocating to the USA in 1970, road testing their material, looking to kickstart their career. It worked a treat...it’s on the road that you establish the body of each song, adapt and refine, then add the details.Subsequently, all but one of the band’s eight Seventies albums went gold.The band’s rocking boogie has its roots in the American south. It’s basically delta blues with its serial number filed off, then turned up to eleven, and Foghat neatly underline the result by adding rhythmic gear changes and foot stomping slide guitar.A solid line up helped: “Lonesome” Dave Peverett, Rod Price and Roger Earl were in the band from the beginning.By that fifth release, “Fool For The City”, they’d truly hit their stride. The title track and ‘Slow Ride’ were career peaks, high energy, head bobbing rock, each displaying as much a foot stomping stamp of authenticity as genre giants.Their monstrously heavy style of twelve-bar boogie and pounding musical riffs cemented them a reputation second to none.Fool for the City is the fifth studio album by English rock band Foghat, released on 15 September 1975. Featuring the band's signature song "Slow Ride", along with the title track, it was the band's first album to go platinum. It was also the first album the band recorded after the departure of original bassist Tony Stevens. Producer Nick Jameson played bass and keyboards on the album, and co-wrote the closing track, "Take It or Leave It", with Dave Peverett. Appearing in the photograph on the back cover of the album, Jameson is not known to have toured with Foghat in support of the album. A new bassist, Craig MacGregor, was recruited shortly after the album's release, but Jameson would continue to produce and record intermittently with the band over the next couple of decades.The LP was released with two different catalog numbers. The original was released as BR 6959. It was reissued as BRK 6980 in 1978. All issues from 1978–1984 used this catalog number

"We have several new songs, a couple of Savoy Brown songs, and a couple of ‘covers’ and we are very excited about this record!"

Album:

Foghat's sound has progressed a great ways since the days of "Slow Ride," as you'd expect from a band that has been around since the '70s. The band now gravitates to a blues sound, not surprising since Foghat came into being when three original members left blues rock outfit Savoy Brown. Founding member and drummer Roger Earl now helms the band accompanied by guitarist Bryan Bassett, singer Scott Holt and bass man Rodney O'Quinn. The songs are a mix of originals and covers and in a very nice tribute, three of the songs were co-written by the band and Kim Simmonds, the late founder of Savoy Brown who had remained a friend to the band over the decades. Sonic Mojo begins with one of the Simmonds numbers, an up-tempo blues rocker with a catchy hook in the chorus called "She's a Little Bit of Everything." The song has a vibe that'll be familiar to fans of early Foghat, Savoy Brown and other blues rock acts of the 1970s. The other Simmonds co-writes include "Drivin' On," a ZZ Top-like number that shows a love of John Lee Hooker and "Time Slips Away," a mid-tempo, almost Southern rock groove that lyrically is a facing of mortality (Simmonds had terminal colon cancer while writing the song) with sweet slide guitar from Bassett heightening the melancholia. Other covers include a rollicking take on Willie Dixon's "Let Me Love You Baby," an interpretation of Chester Burnett's "How Many More Years" that sounds a little like the way Pat Travers or Robin Trower might do the song, and in a surprising choice, Rodney Crowell's "Song for the Life" which works really well here. There's a B.B. King cut too; Holt clearly has a ball singing "She's Dynamite," a cut about a woman with "a pearl-handle pistol and a razor too." Holt shows another side on "Wish I'd Been There," leaving the bluesy vocal roughness aside as he sings about the days when Hank Williams was the hottest thing going. The album ends with one last cover, a take on Chuck Berry's "Promised Land" where the guys replace the original's boogie with a real swinging groove. Sonic Mojo is a satisfying set from this long-running and beloved band.

Scott Holt - lead vocals, lead guitar

Album:

Special Deluxe Collector’s Edition.Fully remastered sound shaped from 24 BIT digital technology, Features the definitive monster boogie anthem ‘Slow Ride’, 16 page full colour booklet, 3,500 word essay, enhanced artwork, memorabilia, rare photos and new interviews.Considered as one of the essential Live albums from the Classic Rock golden era, Rock Candy Records released their Remastered & Reloaded version of FOGHAT‘s album “Foghat Live“, including the celebrated lively take of their signature song “Slow Ride”.The Seventies were a precious time for Rock music. It was a period where musically anything and everything was given free rein, not least the rise of a succession of landmark live albums. Records from KISS, Humble Pie, The Allman Brothers and, especially, Peter Frampton blew the roof off sales wise, helping to elevate those acts to superstar status.Of course, if acts were great on stage then anything should be possible and those live recordings were viewed as not only career markers but also accelerants to future success.”Foghat Live” was a defining moment for both the band and their audience. It is without doubt one of the greatest live albums of all time. Its quality and contents were undeniable and the fact that it wasn’t a full blown double live offering is something of a mystery to this day.Despite that, the record is a blistering example of unrelenting bluesy hard rock muscle. Featuring six full-on live versions of the band’s finest tracks, it captures the band in prime form, blessed with the cream of the group’s compositions – no room for back peddling or inconsequential ballads with this band.Produced by their former bassist Nick Jameson, the record explodes from the opening salvo of ‘Fool For The City’ through a succession of crushing rockers such as ‘Home In My Hand’ (displaying Rod ‘The Bottle’ Price’s masterful bottle neck guitar work), the eight minute ‘I Just Want To Make Love To You’, and their frantic charge of ‘Road Fever’.Of course the ace in deck is a definitive recording of the band’s boogie behemoth ‘Slow Ride’, a track that defines everything you need to know about their style.Foghat clocked up a considerable number of tour miles before this recording, and ‘Foghat Live’ showcases how a Rock band should sound on stage. This is a document of lively energy, that incredible chemistry that few bands were able to achieve.

Energized came out in 1974, followed by Rock and Roll Outlaws and Fool for the City in 1975, the year that Stevens left the band after objecting to their endless touring schedule. Stevens was replaced temporarily by producer Nick Jameson in 1975 when the band recorded Fool for the City. In the next year, Jameson was replaced by Craig MacGregor and the group produced Night Shift in 1976, a live album in 1977, and Stone Blue in 1978, each reaching "gold" record sales. Fool for the City spawned the hit single "Slow Ride" (which reached #20 in the US), but the greatest sales figures were for Live, which sold over 2,000,000 copies. More hits followed: "Drivin' Wheel"; "I Just Want to Make Love to You" (from the live album); "Stone Blue"; and "Third Time Lucky (First Time I Was a Fool)". Rod Price left the band in November 1980, unhappy with the group's still constant touring and the shift away from their hard boogie sound towards a more new-wave-influenced pop direction. After months of auditions he was replaced by Erik Cartwright by February 1981.On 9 July 2013, the band released a single called "The Word of Rock n' Roll", a Christmas song (an instrumental version of "Winter Wonderland") on 5 November 2013, and released a new DVD (Live in St. Pete) in December 2013.November 10, 2015 Foghat announced they would start making a new studio album and the album will be completely fan-funded through a PledgeMusic Campaign. The album will be titled Under The Influence and has a tentative release date for June 24, 2016. "We have several new songs, a couple of Savoy Brown songs, and a couple of ‘covers’ and we are very excited about this record!"
