No doubt Alex. I played that f#cking record so much I cut the grooves through the vinyl and blew out a few stereo speakers!

Everytime I saw Foghat they mastered the stage it didn't matter how big or small the stage was

[@MrRockStarzification]

First Foghat concert I saw they were the warm up for Humble Pie. Too this day it was the greatest rock show I ever saw. Both bands brought their “A” game.

[@Scott-t5c]

same here, saw them early 80's, still the best sounding and overall performance ever, and I went to at least 50 from early 1980-present, me and my friends were blown away, sounded just like this!!!

[@NathanSamples-ge1lo]

These cats were the ULTIMATE boogie band! I got to see them so many times, and in Savoy Brown as well back in the day. One night at the Hollywood Palladium I was watching Savoy Brown on the "Jack The Toad" tour, and Kim Simmonds brought on Lonesome Dave, Rodger, and Tone, and they played a mini set of SB tunes from back in the day, it was awesome! So SAD that so many of these boys are gone now but take it from somebody who was there for so much of this era, it really WAS a great time for straight ahead four on the floor BOOGIE!

[@StandingStones1776]

This band never Quit ! So lucky to have seen Dave, Tone,Roger back with Savoy Brown in 1970 i was 15 then saw the band on their Return of the Boogie Man tour~ that was the ballz

I wish there was more video clips of live performances of the original line up like this, but of course better quality. It is strange to me that there isn't more. If anyone has any, I sure wish they would upload it. Foghat was such a great boogie band. So underrated and never got the attention they deserved. Energized is their "Abbey Road" IMHO.

Stretch this band got me through the days and nights of Vietnam, thanks to Dave and Rod, rest in peace, I know you're both rocking out in heaven

Certainly miss this band! In 1994, I saw them live here in Boston, at the Hard Rock Cafe. The guys in band walked right though the middle of the place and picked up there instruments and started playing! They were incredibly loud and they sounded amazing! What a show!

[@tigerbird7423]

Saw this tour live in Denver Colorado. They brought the house down. They absolutely rocked our freaking butt off. It was unreal. I’ve never been able to find a picture of the pair of “snake pants“ Dave wore that night, very cool, very unique. You had to be there. Decades later, I was running sound for a band in Golden Colorado, when Foghat came through. We didn’t play that night, and I managed to get Dave’s autograph on a copy of their first album. Treasure it to this day. RIP Dave. You are freaking amazing! The whole band is world class. I used to try to play the bass along with Tony Stevens. Everyone of them were total world-class musicians.

In 1973 I heard their first two albums and was hooked. Then in 1974 saw them with Climax Blues Band at the Chicago Auditorium Theatre. Would end up seeing them several more times through the seventies. Why they don't get more mention as one of the great seventies bands I don't know. For a Rock/ Blues/ Boogie band they were hard to beat.
