Fans will soon be able to experience the high energy of a Foghat concert from the comfort of their living room, with the DVD release of their performance at Jannus Landing, \u201cLIVE IN ST. PETE.\u201d\u00a0 While most classic rock bands have made it due to monster selling studio albums, Foghat has always been an exception to that rule with their 1977 \u201cFOGHAT LIVE\u201d album being their biggest seller! (Double Platinum).\u00a0 And this holds true to this day as Foghat still tours relentlessly\u00a0 with their thunderous blend of blues, boogie and rock n\u2019 roll. They hit the stage with all cylinders firing and still remain one of the best live bands today with not only as much energy but with 40+ years of additional experience.<\/p>\n

One concert review stated\u00a0 \u201cThere is so much talent in this band it is ridiculous\u201d.\u00a0 The man who we have to thank for keeping Foghat going and never stopping is founding member Roger Earl who treats the fans to a wicked drum solo.\u00a0 Incredible bassist Craig Macgregor has been a Foghat member since 1975 and played on some of their most successful albums in the 70\u2019s including \u201cFOGHAT LIVE,\u201d \u201cNIGHT SHIFT,\u201d and\u00a0 \u201cSTONE BLUE.\u201d\u00a0 Lead\/slide guitarist Bryan Bassett is an alumni of both Wild Cherry and Molly Hatchet, while vocalist\/guitarist Charlie Huhn played with Ted Nugent, Gary Moore and Humble Pie.<\/p>\n

All of Foghat’s classics are included in this DVD – “Fool for the City,” “I Just Want to Make Love to You,” “Stone Blue,” \u201cDrivin\u2019 Wheel,\u201d \u201c My Babe,\u201d\u00a0 and of course, “Slow Ride, \u201c among many others.<\/p>\n

Starting today, fans can get an exclusive first look at the DVD by checking out the band\u2019s performance of \u2018I Just Want To Make Love To You\u2019 over at UltimateClassicRock.com – http:\/\/UltimateClassicRock.com.<\/p>\n

A stellar review of this show states: \u201cWe were in the front row which proved to be a dangerous situation as we were directly in Bassett\u2019s \u201cshred zone\u201d and our faces were completely melted off.\u00a0 He played a cherrywood Gibson SG and was a Jedi Slide Master. Overall, the concert was exactly what you would expect from Foghat.\u00a0 Lengthy guitar solos, mostly the hit songs that they are known for, playing to the crowd and a 15 minute Slow Ride encore!\u201d<\/p>\n

Perhaps the editor of the popular Classic Rock Revisited website, Jeb Wright, sums it up best in the DVD’s liner notes – “Brilliant Simplicity is the term I use to describe the music of Foghat. As a band, they do not try to dazzle you with their virtuosity, or baffle you with their bullshit.\u00a0 Instead, as this DVD proves, they simply rock you to your core and put a smile on your face. “<\/p>\n
