THIS BAND:
Foghat is an English rock band formed in London in 1971. The band is known for the use of electric slide guitar in its music. The band has achieved eight gold records, one platinum and one double platinum record
The band initially featured Dave Peverett ("Lonesome Dave") on guitar and vocals, Tony Stevens on bass and Roger Earl on drums, after all three musicians left Savoy Brown in 1971. Rod Price, who is featured in this episode, was the specialist on guitar/slide guitar. Rod joined the band after he left Black Cat Bones in December 1970.
The new line-up was named "Foghat" (a nonsense word from a Scrabble-like game played by Peverett and his brother) in January 1971. There is a cartoon drawing on the back cover of the group's first album of a head wearing a foghat.

There was some really great music in the 1960s&70s. I loved FogHat!

[@CL-we8tn]

Never heard of them but they got a new fan today

You'd think there would be more to his burial plot. He was a rock legend.

[@jaybeatty2182]

I grew up listening to Foghat. Thank you Ron for posting this.

[@MrKim56]

Foghat must have toured non stop throughout the 1970’s…saw the original lineup many times …never disappointed. Thanks for paying tribute Ron

[@Sulzie65]

Love Foghat. Still listen to their music. Was fortunate enough to see them in the 70’s.

[@TommyTheCat42]

And yes that’s Rod’s main guitar pictured on his grave, his Gibson Les Paul Jr which was highly modified!

[@tammymullins5240]

Awesome music 🎵

[@willymccabe6602]

Take It or Leave It was one of the greatest 70s songs of all time. RIP Mr Price. You are very missed.

[@lootsnuthouse9462]

Love the intro and the whole video Ron. You can't beat the music of the 70's. Thanks for sharing,

[@tiffarturo5879]

I LOVE Foghat! I'm only in my 30s but Im lucky to have parents in their 60s who had me grow up listening to all the amazing bands of the 70s and 80s. Nothing beats the music like back in those days that's for sure!

[@lisad476]

🤟Foghat was awesome 🤟

[@wendywarrior2264]

I remember roller skating to Slow Ride in the late 70’s & 80’s! Loved Foghat!

[@ciararyan9370]

Man, this one makes me really sad! Growing up in Boston, I remember this band playing in clubs. That would have been in the 80’s, probably with the new guitarist, but they played a lot of the original stuff. It’s sobering to look at that memorial stone and think about how much this guy once rocked out, but now it’s only silence. Rock in peace. 🎸

[@corysmith5228]

I met Rod and all the other original members from Foghat .They were awesome and fun to hang out with . RIP Rod and Lonesome Dave ♡

The london native was instrumental in foghats rise to stardom remember me dad tell us he had died in a fall at home wasn't that old either thank's for sharing this ron.. RIP 🙏 Rod!

[@raystevens1458]

The first time I saw them in concert was in 1977 at the Springfield Civic Center in Springfield Mass, the billing went, Foghat, Rush and the James Gang, and I've been hooked ever since. In 1988 I saw them after the split at a small place around Enfield Connecticut, and came home with the set list, drum sticks, a monogrammed guitar pick and traded my limited NASCAR Winston Racing hat that only us drivers received at Stafford Speedway for a Foghat '88 Tour hat, and still have them all. I'm pleased that the band still performs today with new faces keeping all of the iconic music alive, I only hope to see them one more time while I'm still on this earth. Thanks to all of the original members for giving us so many years of great music and memories, Rest in Peace my friends and perhaps I will get to jam with you all some day.

[@FacesoftheForgotten]

glad to help bring back the memories, thx for sharing, cool!

[@susanblauss1530]

As a teenager in the 70's I grew up listening 🎶 to Foghat- great band! 70's had the best music,still listen to it today! RIP Rod. Thanks,Ron,for bringing us his story.

[@brendarandolph504]

Nothing will ever beat classic rock.

[@FacesoftheForgotten]

indeed!!!!!

[@susanna3]

Brings back some good memories Ron, my first car was a beat up Mercury Comet and I "borrowed "my brother's Foghat 8 tracks among others to crank up in that thing. Thank you for paying respects and taking us back to a simpler time!

[@crisslastname9417]

"Fool For the City" is such an iconic album.

[@sherrydaniels5060]

wow expected a fancier headstone for a rock star loved foghat growing up! thank you for this video!

[@nancyguillette7283]

That brings back some memories. I graduated High School in 1976! That was great times, great music and great fun!

[@Urbicide]

Growing up as a teenager in the 1970's, my second concert I went to, in order of their appearance, consisted of Ronnie Montrose, Foghat, & Black Oak Arkansas, at Bell Auditorium in Augusta GA. Foghat blew them all off of the stage. This was during their Fool for the City tour. I still have my 8-track tape. I believe that it is Rod Price holding the fishing pole on the cover of that album. I didn't get to see them again until the original members had re-united in the 1990's. Saw them at a little venue in Cincinnati, called Annie's. We were no more than 25 feet from the stage, & once again, they rocked the house down. They were no longer the long-haired skinny young men, but the music still had the power to pull you in & move you. Over the years, I've probably spent hundreds of hours listening to the band, especially while out cruising around at night as a young man. "When I was stone blue, Rock-n-Roll sure helped me through!" Thanks for the music.

[@traciasmith1542]

brought back memories with this one. about lived on their music when I was a kid

[@patbowman6723]

I turned my computer on and the music I heard immediately reminded me of a beautiful young man who died of Leukemia. His mom told me but didn't want her son to know just yet. We were sort of going steady and my heart jumped a beat hearing this music. Funny how music can remind you of thing I did so many years ago. Thanks for the memories Ron.

[@shirleygiordano7627]

Trips to grammas, jamming to this in our corsica, mom and dad dancing to this song.......

A wonderful band, a wonderful memory of dancing ourselves to exhaustion to FOGHAT!!! High school &music in 77! Couldn't ask for much better! Thank You

I saw Foghat in 1973"1978 three times in Cincinnati and Dayton and they were ALWAYS top notch. They were soo good. It broke my heart to learn of all them passing. Thanks for this.

One of best intro to any rock song was on “I Just Wanna Make Love To You” You brought a million memories back. I saw them in ‘71 ... they were beyond great. I am sure they contributed to my hearing issues. 🎶

[@flocosta]

I loved the 70's because it was the melting pot of music. There was something for everyone. Rock, pop, blues, folk and country. You could find it all...... and we still had jukeboxes! Even today I like most music. About the only thing I'm not crazy about is opera. I do have Mario Lanza albums stashed away though because they belonged to my dad, and I just can't let them go. If I could return to a time in my life, it would definitely be the 70's. I badly need a do over. I do love the wording and guitar on Rod's stone!!
