 Speaking of bad...

| Foghat caught my attention with their HIT song, "Slow Ride". So, I thought to myself, if they have on good song, like other bands, they will have other good songs on their album. This is one of the few times I will admit that I am wrong. And I was wrong in the worst way. I not only wasted my money to buy this album, I wasted my time listening to each of those songs at least once. I would recommend this album to ANYBODY who wants to spend $10 on one good song. |

| In my opinion, "Slow Ride" is Foghat's crowning achievement. And the cherry on top of this cake is Nick Jameson's funky bass solo. The omission of this, along with some nice lead guitar work, on this abbreviated version of "Slow Ride" is truly the "fly in the ointment". Very disappointing! |

| Foghat is cool, but this collection didnt really have any good ones, they were dumb enough to put the shorter version of slow ride in there instead the full version. |

 Foghat - Decnt Career Overview

| Back in the day I owned quite a few of Foghat's studio albums on vinyl. When CD's came along I decided to pick this (and Volume 2) up to get at least some of their stuff on CD. This CD covers material from their first album up through 1979's "Boogie Hotel". It contains all of the Foghat AOR and top 40 hits along with several strong album cuts. As a compilation the album contains all of their best known stuff and is for the most part good. The one big criticism for this collection is that in on at least four songs the "single" version of the song is included instead of the "album" version. For many bands this would not make that much of a difference, but with Foghat it is a big deal especially on longer cuts like "Slow Ride" and "Stone Blue". Both tracks were cut up significantly for radio airplay and the singles versions are vastly inferior. Other than that this is a nice compilation. Foghat always mixed up their originals with boogie based covers. If you are a newbie looking to explore Foghat I would recommend "Foghat Live" over this, but as an introductory compilation this album is a decent effort. |

Good But Lacking

This compilation disc was produced for the music fan who either doesn't have any Foghat albums, or just one, maybe two at the most. There are live versions of songs included when the studio version was better, and vice-versa. Home In My Hand should be the studio version, I Just Want To Make Love To You should be live. Road Fever would have been a nice inclusion as well. I am glad Eight Days On The Road is here, it's a great song that is too often overlooked. I was really bummed when I heard Slow Ride, it's the single version, edited and shortened. Either the album cut or the live version is more appropriate, especially considering Foghat's legacy is they were a great live band and did a lot of jamming.
Lonesome Dave and Rod Price aren't with us anymore may their rock and roll souls rest in peace. Hopefully, someday, some company will put out an anthology that covers all the right bases. |
