Fool For The City (50th Anniversary Edition)
Celebrate 50 years of Foghat with this special anniversary edition of their platinum classic. Featuring iconic tracks like “Slow Ride” and “Fool For The City,” plus never-before-released live recordings from their 1975 shows at Chicago’s Aragon Ballroom. The 2CD version also includes bonus live tracks and a vintage interview with Nick Jameson and Roger Earl discussing the making of “Slow Ride.
Some songs are so ingrained in our consciousness that they are immediately identifiable upon hearing one or two notes. Featuring one of the most indelible riffs ever played, Foghat's air-guitar anthem "Slow Ride" is such a tune. The hit single turned the British band into stars and catapulted 1975's Fool for the City up the charts. And what a ride it is. We hear a lot of yearning today about the good-old, glory days of rock and roll, the simple kind that just locked into a good beat, turned out a raunchy groove, and simply kicked you in the butt. The no-pretence type meant for kicking back, letting loose, and surrendering to the melody. Bare-bones music that doesn't need image or looks as a crutch.Well, this is it, friends, classic meat-and-potatoes 70s rock that comes with killer slide-guitar solos, crunchy leads, driving rhythms, and soaring vocals. No need for any further instructions or explanations. The pact between artist and audience is understood. Here, the band trusts that you know what to do and is ready to rock out with anyone in earshot.
