Foghat absolutely deserves to be in the Hall of Fame! They should have made it when they were alive. Disgraceful!
Of course so many agree with you but sadly so many greats once and IF they are inducted it's when the voice is weak, changed or blown out after 4 decades of performances. Ever notice how Paul Shaffer happens to be there acting part of the band ? He is a board member of the Rock-n-Roll hall of shame.
@@1Rockdad I THINK ITS AN HONOR NOT TO BE IN THE R&R HALL OF SHAME, LOOK AT SOME OF THE ACTS THEY LET IN WHICH DOESN'T HAVE HALF THE TALENT THAT FOGHAT HAD. THEY ARE A BUNCH OF LIBERAL WACK JOBS ANYHOW, WE THE FANS KNOW BETTER WHEN IT COMES TO THIS INCREDIBLE ACT, ROD THE BOTTLE PRICE IS PERHAPS ONE OF THE BEST SLIDE GUITARIST OF ALL TIME, I WOULD PROBABLY PUT DUANE ALMAN AS THE BEST EVER , LONESOME DAVE KNEW HOW TO MOVE THE MUSIC AND THE AUDIENCE, I GOT A CHANCE TO SEE THEM IN 83 AND 93 , 83 THEY OPENED FOR TRIUMPH AND THEY BLEW TRIUMPH OUT OF THE OMNI IN ATLANTA, THEN I GOT TO SEE THEM FOR THE RETURN OF THE BOOGYMEN TOUR WHICH UNITED THE 4 ORIGINAL MEMBERS
The R&R hof is a disgrace, too many joke bands who were never rock and don't belong are in, Foghat, UFO, etc belong
Roughly 5 months left to live and Lonesome Dave was up there smiling and working the crowd like a man with 1000 more years of life ahead of him... Let us all strive to be more like Lonesome Dave...R.I.P Legend.
Yeah man,,,Lonesome Dave was the driving wheel of that band,,,RIP Lonesome Dave🙏🏻
Hurts so bad to see Dave so close to the end. What a magnificent fighter - the living embodiment of rock'n'roll....
Going out rockin'. RIP Dave and Rod. Great live band!
What a fighter Dave was to not let his illness stop his love of playing live. God please take care of Dave and Rod. RIP
damned straight...Dave was the TOPS
This band wuz absolute gold! How they aren't in the R&RHOF in Cleveland is disturbing. But it really don't matter...they are one of the best hard rocking blues bands of all time. Lonesome Dave Peverette, Rod Price, Tony Stevens, and Roger Earl - the best!!!
Joseph McGrath I agree: the best ever, good!!!!
Joseph McGrath dood, not other, man
utterly heartbreaking to see Dave at the end of his life like this, especially since he is giving his all here. RIP buddy.
Brian Bassett can flippin' PLAY! 😊
This guitar riff is awesome.
Probably the greatest live R&R band of all time. I saw Foghat, Mountain and Blackfoot, all in their prime (1970+) for $5.00.
+Von Ehman Von Ehman - I agree totally. I saw Foghat about a half a dozen times in Seattle during the 70's. In my book, nobody tops Foghat. Nobody!
Saw Vanilla Fudge, Jethro Tull and Zepplin for $5 in 1969 just before I left for Vietnam.
Saw them in Memphis at 616 about 30 years ago for five dollars.
Damn,what a show that would have been,lucky you.
Dave sounded better than ever here
Only 5 months before his death and he's rock'in out! You are missed Lonsome Dave. And Rod too. Man he could play that slide!
thats not Rod
JAMES monagon No, it's Lonsome Dave. And Rod TOO, as in ALSO.
seattwa no thats is not Rod the bottle it is his replacement
JAMES monagon read the lineup
JAMES monagon Yes I know, I was just adding Rod's name. He died a couple of years later. What a shame huh?! 2 talented musicians.
My first concert was Eddie Money opening for Foghat on the Stone Blue tour. Amazing!!!
I saw that same show at the cow palace S.F.
Yeah you're right. Stone Blue was an amazing album.
Got me through some tight spots in '79' (?). I was still '8-trackin'
"Blues (were definately) knocking on my back door; I can't (didn't) jump off the 2nd floor (figuratively). Love that band still to this day
THIS is REAL ROCK and ROLL!! Lonesome Dave rocked THAT HARD months before his death to cancer! What a spirit! Rod was too big for that guitar and tore it up! FOGHAT TORE IT UP!! For another great treat, look up Lonesome Dave with Savoy Brown. Killer!!
He did what he loved to the end. If you do what you love for a living, you'll never work a day in your life. He was blessed ➕💕
Lonesome Dave would die 5 months later, in February, 2000.......rockin till the end and his spirit lives on!
I remember they had tour dates booked into the next year so he had no intention on stopping.
@@mojorisen74 your right. They were going to play at the Turning Stone in New York in January before he died.
.*you're
Couldn’t make it big in England but that’s their loss. Foghat huge in USA.
Love ya, Lonesome Dave! Wherever you are, thanks for a lifetime of musical memories, friend.
for a guy battling cancer, he did give this concert his all. I bet Dave is rockin and rollin the guys and gals in heaven
Always loved Savoy Brown and whoever teamed up with Kim Simmons but when Lonesome Dave left and started Foghat it was magnificent. Foghat one of the best bluesy rock bands ever.
Lonesome Dave Peverret You're a magnificent champion. Given me so much enjoyment over the years. You always seemed like a really good bloke and a decent man.
A friend of mine was a DJ and met the original members and said they were the nicest group in rock. Down to earth and not arrogant.
Tone thick enough to cut with a chainsaw. Lonesome Dave rockin' all the way to the end. RIP!!
I've loved Foghat since I first heard them in 1973. I bet Lonesome Dave's rockin' God's souls in heaven.
Rod and dsvr unbelie vibl
Dave killed it . Period
One of the best of all best bands of all time; been listenin now since the 70's & never tire of em.....
One of my favorite tunes I never heard on the radio is "Nervous Release" off the "Boogie Motel" album.
DUDE, PARTY ON THE PLAZA WAS MY THURSDAY NIGHT PARTY EVERY THURSDAY DURING SUMMER!!
We go to Longhorn Saloon for Happy Hour then scoot to the plaza for some girls, booze, joint, and great rock n roll.
Thanks for the memories Dave!
Just under 5 months before Dave's death. He had to be hurting here but he'd never let you know. RIP Dave....arguably the greatest rock voice FM radio ever knew.
What a great, hard driving Rocking Blues song! One of their best!
RIP Dave and Rod- No one can replace you guys! You rocked hard until the end!
God Bless you both! You can Rest now cause you gave your Best!
Check out a tune by them called "Nervous Release" its on their "Boogie Motel" album
God what heartbreaker. Saw them several times. Got an autographed bass drum head from Roger. Miss you Dave. What a crowd pleaser. He went out like a rocket.
Met Roger and the guys in the band back in 1978. We have been good friends ever since. One of the most down to earth guys you will ever meet
God Blees ya Dave.........Miss ya!
My favorite Foghat tune!
Mine too!!
And mine too!
RIP Lonesome Dave Peverette he still had it just like he was in the 70's
Excellent band FogHat! Excellent concert in 1981, Driving Wheel , remember this song in particular, excellent music at the "Pit" and my brother too, (RIP, Dewey)
That gold suit should be in a hall of fame somewhere......
Mother of God that was great! My favorite Foghat song right up there with 8 Days on the Road.
Love Daves voice. Love the song. Love Foghat. RRHOF FU!
Oh Lonesome Dave..we hardly knew ye lad. Rest in peace ya rocking bluesman. God bless ya.
Great post mate! That say's it all!
BK Montoya Well bless your heart and continue to rock on Sir BK!
bbqeatinbuckeye right-on! Ucken Faye!
the best boogie band the world has ever seen!!!!!!!!!!!!!...RIP Dave and Rod...
So my h power in one song! I feel sorry for the generations that have never heard this before. In a way I want to be selfish and keep it all to myself. Long live the boogie bands.
man they were on fire that night, dave sounding amazing, drivin wheel, off "night shift" right after fool for the city. these guys killed it for a long time.
Rockin to the End doing what he was meant to do making us tap our feet bobing.our heads and playing that air guitar Thanks Dave where ever you are
This song gets better with every measure!
They rocked because they had too! No choice in the matter. God had destined Dave and Rod to become Foghat! First seen 1976!
Just awesome!!! Raw, in your face, jumping up and down on a tight rope over a thousand foot drop, because they know they are in full control. Foghat has always been tight as tight gets in their live performances. Just awesome!!!
Rip brother just awesome old school kick ass rock n roll i had there lp i wore it out 👍
First Album I ever bought...Foghats Debut Record...My Alltime Favorite Singer...LONESOME DAVE R.I.P.
this brought tears. I loved Dave and Rod Price. man they could play. and Rogers still jamming God bless him....
God bless you Lonesome Dave, rest easy rock n' roll man. We miss you, and Rod Price too, thanks for all the great tunes.
Ever know anyone who didn't like Foghat??
Tis a rare breed of rock n roller. Rare breed of humanity. These guys gave it all till the end. Nothing but love for 'em.
Yessss RIP Lonesome Dave!!! You still gave it your all hun
Saw em in Dallas TX at the Bronco Bowl.Wanna say it was 94 They kicked ass lemme tell ya.
Had the pleasure of seeing them at the Spokane (WA) coliseum on their Night Shift tour. It was one of the best concerts I ever attended.
Such on underated band. These boys knew how to kick ass and leaving the crowd saying saying that was fkn awesome
Agreed
One of the most underrated love songs of all time!! Thanks Dave!!!!
Oh Man. This is THE version!
Been watching for it.
Thank You Much. Rock & Roll!
I saw Foghat with Slade front row in Mpls back in the 70's.
Love it!
holy crap i was at this show party on the plaza downtown houston. They tore it up
Lucky you! :-) Happy Easter!
Yes party on the Plaza !!!
I worked at UofH, I'd drive over there every Thursday after work and was at this one also. Usually I could get close to the front for most shows, not this one! I was somewhere in the middle this night and it was great.
I wasn't sure but Yeah I was there also . I had just gotten Married to my still current wife . She's 7 yrs younger then me and didn't know Foghat except for Slow Ride which most only know that song when they have so many more great songs . Great Rockin Blues band !! Memories preserved on video my wife is gonna flip . Thanks for posting !
Boys and Girls, this is a real rock band !!!!!! RIP Lonesome Dave and Rod Price.
Except it wasn't Rod Price it was Brian Bassett
wow again, my 3rd FogHat song tonight, make's me want to go back to the late 70s with the wife in the old camaro
Great singer, great slide and just a great band. One of my favorites, saw them at least ten times.
Last time i saw foghat was at val du lakes in michigan. Can't even remember who else played but i definitely remembered foghat. I think it was in the early 90s. Hell i went to so many concerts i barely remember half of them.
Absolutely incredible...I love it Dave was the best
Thank you so much for posting! Always a fan of Foghat. Saw them live at the Spokane Coliseum in the mid-70s during their Night Shift tour--awesome show!
I love seeing folks having fun, and Lonesome Dave sure does here! So wonderful.
So fantastic best live group of their time
i saw savoy brown once- can't believe i missed these guys! what a sound...
Great version of the song.
FYI for those who do not know, that's Brian Bassett more than aptly filling the shoes on slide guitar.
Brian is flippin' amazing!
Bassett from Molly Hatchet fame I believe,,Rip Dave,Rod,
Brian knows what is required and kicks maximum ass. :)
@@David33333able and Wild Cherry.
"If you aint sweatin it aint rock n roll"..Lonesome Dave..He had the energy of a teen till the end..God bless him
From Savoy Brown to The bitter end the best rock ever by that is first man ever see of course I thought he was looking at me ☘️☮️
no one ever rocked harder.
Foghat Millenium Tour dvd opening tune. Awesome show if you can find the dvd. Outstanding performance by the entire band, especially Lonesome Dave. A noteworthy exhibition by Brian Bassett on lead & slide guitar.
I saw the Fog back in the day with the Jonny Van Zandt band and the Outlaws in the old Boston Gardens.
I love Foghat.
Here's the best part every member of. I think it's true rock and roll band that played live
Man, what an inspiring video! Everyone's entitled to their own opinion, and there's no correct one, but I couldn't see anything heartbreaking about this video. What hit me, after the pure rock-n-roll beauty of his ass-kicking performance was knowing that Lonesome Dave crossed over to the other side only months later.
And what's all this about "rest in peace"? Reminds me of a remark I remember Ted Nugent making between songs: "I hope nobody came here to get mel-low...anybody who came here to get mel-low better get the fuck outa here!" Dave was all about rockin' at high volume. Somehow I can't picture him accepting an offer to rest in peace--and good on 'em.
No one gets out alive. Dave was a world best crazy rocker until he dropped dead. No better example of having to be dragged kicking and screaming into that good night, just like I'm sure they had to drag him off stage after Foghat's performances. Right on, Dave! Thanks for always leading by super-human example.
Might be better to say Rock In Peace.
I saw the originals in the 70's. I wasn't a fan of all there tunes, but free ride and this one were classic. One of the great bands in the 70's
Good to see Tony Stevens on bass.
RIP Rod and Dave.
Best version of the song..❤🔊🎵🎶
DAVE YOU WERE THE BEST
You guys still rock !
they still got it!
Lonesome dave was the best and the guitarist, not playing, is the best slide guitar in the world. I believe he died by accidentally falling down his stairs at home in florida, I read. Wish he had a book on how to play slide that damn good. RIP.
Dave died from cancer. Rod fell down the stairs and died.
We lost both, too damn soon. My Respects.
Rod Price was a fine slide player...however, the two best ever are...and you may have heard of these guys...George Harrison and Joe Walsh...
No, Dave died from Kidney Cancer.
He was getting treatment here hence the hair loss, also looks frail.
This was only a few months before he died, probably one of his last shows.
I was mistaken, ROD PRICE, fell down his stairs at home in florida and died, I believe. These two were great musicians and a great great loss to the world. RH DSD
Definitely in my top 10 of favorite songs...probably top 5.
Sounds great.
Lonesome Dave was the man, and what a good guy he was. What a trooper, Rocking until the end, even when he was having bad days towards the end, still were better than most peoples best days!!!
awesome rocking record only wish I could play guitar like this guy.
GREAT post. THANKS for sharing. R.I.P. Lonesome Dave.
Great Great Great Great
9/9/99 in Houston in the middle of hurricane season. Must have been hot and humid! Dave and Tony had to have been sweltering in those suits!
This show was a little over a mile from where I worked in Houston, they had them every Thursday night in the summer, Steppenwolf, Iron Butterfly, Delbert, Savoy Brown etc would show up for these shows, this was one of the most fun , I usually would be able to get up on the front row but there were so many people at this one I was at least 30 rows back, I didn't realize Dave was so sick at the time and you never would have been able to tell at this show, probably the 7th time I ever got to see Foghat live, in the early days they would open shows (and sometimes steal those shows) for bigger bands, these guys knew how to put on a live show.
Great times in St Louis
I saw these guys live in 1977 and of course by then I knew all their songs inside and out. These guys were pretty far off the hook as a band and they were hard rock in sound but got a lot of mileage out of the older rock and blues traditions. The dueling electric guitars where one player would mirror the other but then try to roast his opponent is something Foghat did, but they also became skilled at using two guitars within their songs like Aerosmith was doing, focusing on making all the killer riffs mesh together. Every one of their songs sounded better in the live recordings whether it was Slowride or Fool for the City. Their live album was a huge seller and Foghat did a lot to convince people that live recordings were often better and they should both go to the show and buy albums of real performances.
Rock On! 🤘🤟🤟
Wow, sounds great!
verry verry underrated
Thank you
Kicking ass to the end.
Mon premier album de foghat ❤
Awesome miss em..
Everyone should know that Rod Price is not in this video, but it's Bryan Bassett. Rod had left the band.
