Stone Blue, Foghat's seventh studio album, rolled out on Bearsville in May 1978, and it's the sound of a boogie band getting shoved around by its producer and coming out swinging. Eddie Kramer, the engineer behind records by Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin, ran the sessions, and he and the band clashed in the studio. That friction may be exactly what gives the thing its extra bite.
Following Foghat Live, the lineup of Dave Peverett, Rod Price and Roger Earl, with Craig MacGregor on bass guitar, keeps it stripped down and hard-charging, blues rock with the electric slide guitar snarling on top. The centerpiece is a savage run through Robert Johnson's "Sweet Home Chicago", which they play like the blues owes them rent.
