My comment doesn't just pertain to Foghat there are a lot of so called underdog bands that never made it big but they could blow all the bands that did, and lost there way, out of the water
Just because you just happened to know who he was & you're a fan of Foghat doesn't mean he got that recognition like others of his time Price was great but he didn't get that same recognition that others got & he should have... so the guys right... @@mitchgawlik1175
@@gregtennessee8249 you really let him live rent free in yer brain huh? Really sad, I feel really sorry for you! Really, I do. Let it go man, let it go. There is more to life than Trump hating. Well, for most of us anyway. LMAO
These English boys had soul. Love me some Foghat. They were right smack dab in the middle of that golden era of Rock music. Drew heavily from American blues and R&B, while adding their own style of British edge. Thanks for these great old clips!
I don't understand, was everybody just freaking cool in the 70's?! I grew up with this kind of music on the radio and my aunt's awesome record collection but seeing these performances I'm just blown away! Music like this reminds me why I don't listen to the radio anymore. Great stuff and amazing performance here!
I know what you're saying but you should try listening to spanish stations that play latin music. That stuff's not bad when they're not playing the autotune club garbage.
Right around this time I saw them they were the headliners at the Aragon Ballroom in Chicago! With backup bands UFO with Michael Schenker and Thin Lizzy with Gary Moore! All three bands on one night!
I must say, I really enjoy reading the comments. Especially from knowledgeable people who were part of the action back then. Learning a lot and having fun with all the magic from days gone by. Thank you again, and again, TMS folks for the incredible job you are doing with this! 🥰
both songs are versions of Johnny Burnette covers (via Tiny Bradshaw and Big Joe Turner), so there's that. Must have been having a nostalgia moment for the Rock and Roll Trio in 1974
Agree 101 % i saw Lonesome Dave, Roger Earl and Tone Stevens the last year when the ywere with Savoy Brown i was 15 going to shows in Boston man i saw hundreds of great music, then the next year Savoy Brown was on Boston Common with the new line up doing "Street Corner Talking" LP i was lucky enought to see the original line up of Foghat when the ydid the "Return of the Boggie Men " tour at Mama Kins in Boston a small venue and they tour ip up i mean the place was vibrating afte 3 songs Lonesome Dave says " Yes I'm getting a sweat going thats good"
Used to listen to "Foghat Live" when I went running along the Charles River. Forty five minutes and not a nano-second of low energy. Couldn't run without it. Rod Price and I had an internet friendship/bond(we both had just learned how to use computers😂😂! We both got cut open, on the same gurney, by the same Doc for our hernias within days of each other in NH. Small world. He was British and a funny guy. This woulda been about 2001, and I expressed concern about the future of music and he said not to worry and that "music is cyclical". He was nice enough to respond to me, as, I agree, he was a premier World talent.
I got to sit and have dinner with Foghat in the mid '90s when they first came back on tour, playing a small county fair on Whidbey Island, WA, where I was doing parrot shows. Roger Earl sat and played with my cockatoo some time before going on stage. I was a huge Foghat fan at the time was an amazing experience for me. I've been able to see them a couple more times since. Foghat 2 are awesome live, even with music I am not familiar with. Great band!!
I wish foghat would been able to of kept rod in the band ! But I understand the road can get to ya and musical style changing in the band! It would of been good if they could of kept the 70’s line up into the 80’ and kept the boogie goin! Space ace Ron⚡️⚡️⚡️
Circa 1975 my buddy Tommy's older brother had the giant advent projection TV that he would rent to bars, but most of the time we would watch DKs rock concert on it along with if I can remember stereo on WHFS, we thought life couldn't get any better than this. Peace
A LONG Time ago, when I was a much younger man, staying up late to watch MIDNIGHT SPECIAL, in black and white was very cool,, GOOD BANDS, GOOD MUSIC ..... rock and roll for Life...\m/
LONESONE DAVE AND ROD PRICE amaizing guitar player .one of my favorite rock groups.I love the LIVE ALBUM .This version of HONEY HUSH is incredible .thanks for uploading this performance .GREETING FROM MEXICO .
Saw them in 97 in Jaxx Springfield VA. Infukingcredible! I was in the front. I caught the drumstick that I still have. Thx Rog! I had a 35 mm camera. I got fantastic pics! One of my fav bands in the 70's!
YES!!!Thanks for posting,been waiting to see this. One of the great covers of a song. They took the original to a whole other level. Rod Price never got his due as s guitar player.
This band blew the roof off the old Garden, always in perfect tune; psychedelic flower-power blues, cranked up to 11. We were young, and foolishly believed that the beautiful music would never die. I'm a fool for the ol' city.
Hi yo Silver, I remember cruising in January one day in my pals old convertible, blasting Slow ride with the top down, goodtimes, yes, the 70s people were -are very cool
Sometime in the late 70's my girlfriend and I stopped for lunch at a country pub. Had the place to ourselves until a bikie gang rolled in. Halfway through my meal I hear them hanging crap on one of their number: "What do you know about music? You and your bloody Foghat records! Who's ever heard of Foghat!" I couldn't let that go unchallenged. Girlfriend wanted to hide under the table when I jumped up and yelled "Did somebody say Foghat?" "Maaaate! What's your favourite Foghat album? Mine's the Live one!, But Energized is close second!" We then compared record collections for a few minutes and his mates shut up.
Do you know who did that riff first? I've been looking, but still not sure. Honey Hush predates Train kept a rollin by a few years, but neither originally used that riff. With the blues people never got hung up on who took what from who. It's just how music progesses. It wasn't until lawyers got involved that it mattered to anyone. Maybe that's why music kind of sucks now. You can't do anything that even vaguely resembles something else. The first guy to play either song with that riff was probably someone no one remembers. Or maybe the riff came from something else altogether, and just got used by players later for these songs. It all comes from somewhere.
“Good artists copy; great artists steal”…in this case these great artists have taken two songs from Johnny Burnette Trio’s 10” Coral album (Honey Hush and Train Kept A Rolling), mixed them together, they’ve lifted the Yardbirds’ rock sound for Train Kept A Rolling/Stroll On, and added some cool embellishments of their own. That’s how to create a classic.
They played our LI High School circa 1975. As I recall, it cost us 5K. Loving FH, I thought it money well spent. Though I don't think we recovered the $ in ticket sales. I have always liked "Honey Hush" and thought it eerily similar to Aerosmith's "Train-Kept-a-Rolling".

Lonesome Dave and Rod Price made an incredible guitar front line. Rod is so underrated! RIP to both of them.
"Underrated". Here we go again. If you were rockin' in the '70s you knew exactly who Rod Price was, and "underrated" wasn't part of the equation.
@@mitchgawlik1175100 percent. Just because you haven’t enjoyed them with the masses doesn’t give them the title of underrated

And LOVIN' It. 🎸🎸🔊🤘

One of the BEST live bands PERIOD!!!! True rock and roll in your face. Midnight Special/ Don Kirshners Rock Concert, those were the days.
THAT's the Foghat I was introduced to 50 years ago..!!!

I wore this 8 track out!
💯🔥
Superb band 🎸 🎤 🎸
Saw them with STYX & Head East in Lake Charles, LA in'77. One of the best shows ever! For $7. Thanks for Posting
That was when it didn’t cost you a week’s pay for a ticket. ✌️🎸
That run of Rock and Roll, Energized and R&R Outlaws was a tremendous trilogy!
Amazing Archive.
There is nothing quite like the sound of the Boogie Men at their best! What a great time to be alive and a fan of rockin' blues!
First time seeing FOGHAT. Thanks for sharing Midnight special 👍
Our pleasure!
I was lucky enough to see them in Dec 73, opening for J Geils, with Montrose opening the whole show. Those were the days.

Train kept a Honey Hushin’
First solo is incredible...secondo even more incredible...no words 🔥
Thank you for the awesome video, TMS.
Just incredible, I saw some of them, so many good ones!
I saw Foghat twice in the 1970’s. First time as opening act for Johnny Winter. Second was headlining with Boston as opener. Both great performances.
Johnny Winter and Foghat Hollywood Paladium 1974 unbelieveable never forget...

Man this needs more views badass song God bless us all
I had this song on a Foghat album i bought when was a sophomore in High School .
Energized
Love It!
Foghat is a red hot band who can rock rock rock and they know it

My old boss at an ice cream store in Cincinnati used to play Foghat a lot. He eventually got arrested for fraud.
Wow how cool is this 💗
Love song and Band!!!
I didn't know they performed this song on that show. I got the Energized vinyl album.
One of my favs for running. I feel the power really
Great song, by a great group.
Still one of the best, pure Rock & Roll bands that ever took to the stage...

An excellent example of pick-bass!! Dead tight and with a great tone!
Would have love to see both Foghat and Humble Pie on a double bill. Two great bands back from those good old days.
Sammy Speare and his Orchestra, ladies and gentlemen!!
If you can remember their concerts back in the day, you might have not been there
If your wife hears this and says "Yardbirds!" when she hears the intro she's a keeper.
