Breaking
away from Savoy Brown to form this band, the members of Foghat knew
from the start what sort of record they wanted to make. With heavy
emphasis on the hard boogie, Foghat got down to work with the help of
Dave Edmunds and crafted a hard rock gem. Covering Chuck Berry's
"Maybellene," they goosed the beat up until it was almost a precursor of
the heavy metal yet to come. Interspersing covers with original
material, they immediately found a place for themselves in the rock
world.

The band initially
featured Dave Peverett ("Lonesome Dave") on guitar and vocals, Tony
Stevens on bass, and Roger Earl on drums, after all three musicians left
Savoy Brown in December 1970. Rod Price, on guitar/slide guitar, joined
after he left Black Cat Bones. The new line-up was named "Foghat" (a
nonsense word from a Scrabble-like game played by Peverett and his
brother) in January 1971. There is a cartoon drawing on the back cover
of the group's first album of a head wearing a foghat.
