Foghat-Live (1977)

In 1971, after the publication of the album "Looking In" by the British blues rock band Savoy Brown, three of its members, singer and guitarist Dave Peverett, bassist Tony Stevens and drummer Roger Earl, left to found one of the best and more charismatic Hard Rock & Boogie Rock bands.
It goes without saying that Foghat's influences and roots are more than evident, especially in his first albums.
However, this new band shows a style harder and more energetic than its mother band, with high voltage rock and hard rock.
In their early years they achieved a great reputation in the United States thanks to albums such as "Rock and Roll", "Energized", or "Rock and Roll Outlaws", which were published in the period from 1973 to 1975.
In 1977 the one that will become his best and most sold work, the direct "Foghat Live", is published, with more than two million copies sold only in the USA.
An album which only consists of six songs, becomes one of the essential live shows of rock, with an anthological repertoire of their successes and some versions, such as the fast-paced "Fool for the City", the anthology "Slow Ride" or the rhythmic version of Willie Dixon's track "I Just Want to Make Love to You".
