A great interview with Roger Earl on the washingtontimes.com!
"When you think of classic rock, no band personified the term more than Foghat, with tunes like “Slow Ride,” “I Just Wanna Make Love to You” and “Fool for the City” the epitome of the genre. Four decades later Foghat still rocks on.... Question: Can you believe that...
Thank you Heraldstandard.com for the great review of “Under the Influence”!
"For “Under the Influence,” the band rallies to punch out 12 tracks that sport quite a bit of bite. The album opens with the raucous title track before leading into the AC/DC swagger of “Knock It Off.” The boys deliver some infectious rock blues on tracks like..."...
Great review of “Under the Influence” on annecarlini.com!

Review of ‘Under the Influence’ on classicrockrevisited.com!

A great CD review by 100percentrock.com of “Under the Influence”

Review: Some Diurnal Aural Awe: Foghat – “Under the Influence”
Short, Sweet and Cool Review! Thank you! "A couple of years in the making and many more in their own rock-lineage gestation, this classic rock album is as generically solid as one could hope. There is a stellar Stones-esque stomper in Heart Gone Cold - certainly in...
