Foghat Live Performance of 'Drivin' Wheel' - Two Centuries of Boogie

Foghat was well-established by the time of their live recording of "Drivin' Wheel," which showcases their energetic blend of rock and blues. The performance likely took place in the mid-1970s, following the release of their breakthrough album "Fool for the City" in 1975, which features the hit single “Slow Ride.” This album solidified their reputation and helped them reach a wider audience. Additionally, at this point in their career, the band was noted for their distinctive sound characterized by powerful guitar riffs and a prominent rhythm section. Roger Earl, the drummer, and Lonesome Dave Peverett, the lead vocalist, were key figures in the band, contributing to their dynamic live performances. The recording captures the essence of Foghat's live shows, which were marked by their enthusiastic engagement with audiences and a commitment to showcasing their boogie rock roots.
