Foghat

In early 1974, Foghat was on the rise, having released their self-titled debut album in 1972 and their sophomore effort, "Energized," in 1973. Their performance on "Don Kirshner's Rock Concert" on February 2, 1974, occurred just after the release of their third album, "Rock and Roll Outlaws," which came out in late 1974. This live recording highlights the band's blues-infused rock style, featuring tracks like "I Just Want To Make Love To You," showcasing their energetic stage presence. An interesting fact about Foghat during this period is that they were gaining recognition as one of the prominent bands in the rock genre, known for their powerful live performances and the distinctive guitar work of Lonesome Dave Peverett. The recordings from both dates in 1974 exemplify the band’s commitment to delivering high-energy rock, which would propel them further into stardom, particularly in the latter half of the decade.
