FOGHAT: Live (Limited Edition 180-Gram LP Release)

It’s one of the greatest rock ‘n’ roll live albums of all time, and one of the greatest rock ‘n’ roll albums of the ‘70s, period. And it (deservedly) vaulted one of the best boogie bands ever to superstardom. But, even in this golden era of classic rock vinyl reissues, Foghat: Live has not seen its killer twin guitar jams recommitted to wax…until now! Rhino Records has brought this legendary live album back to vinyl where it belongs, with a limited-edition package that pulls no punches: Orange vinyl, with painstaking replications of the original die-cut jacket and of the 4-color cardboard inner “Eurosleeve” that peeks out through the die-cut. This record brings out every note in such stomping songs as “Honey Hush” (taken at twice the speed of the studio version), “Home in My Hand” (check those a cappella harmonies), the big hit “Fool for the City, ” “Road Fever” and, of course, the frenzied boogie favorites “I Just Want to Make Love to You” and “Slow Ride.” The quartet “Lonesome” Dave Peverett and Rod Price, bassist Craig MacGregor and drummer Roger Earl were as tight as any rock band before or since—38 minutes of blues-rock bliss.
