Guitarist Erik Cartwright, who rose to prominence after joining Foghat as a replacement for founding member Rod Price in 1981, has died at the age of 66.
In the aftermath of the carnage at Ariana Grande's Manchester concert last night, some of rock's most widely respected artists have taken to social media to share their stunned responses.
What’s in a name? Well, nothing and everything, if the subject is legendary blues-rockers Foghat, since their curious moniker meant absolutely nothing. Still, their prophetically named third studio album truly ‘Energized’ their career, when it was released in January 1974.
'Energized' was Foghat's third studio album an one that explodes with the blues/heavy metal sound. Lonesome Dave the lead singer also one of the founders of Savoy Brown.
The latest movie in MTV's 'Jackass' franchise, 'Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa,' features the usual mess of nut shots and gross-out gags. But this one's a bit different than the three movies that have preceded it; this one actually has a plot. Plus some classic rock from Foghat and Warrant in the trailer.
After more than 40 years together, the members of Foghat have developed a special bond with their fans. So when it came time to add lyrics to their latest single, they knew exactly where to look.
In this song, "Drivin Wheel" the electric slide guitar of the late Rod Price, is priceless and he didn't earn the title 'Slide King of Rock and Roll' for nothing.
