About this album

Rock And Roll Outlaws finds Foghat leaning hard into their blues-rock muscle, tightening the boogie-heavy formula that made them a fixture of 1970s hard rock. Issued in 1974, the album builds on the band’s early London roots and their reputation for road-tested, riff-driven playing, with covers and originals alike pushed by muscular guitars and a heavy rhythm section. Songs such as Rock & Roll Outlaw and Chateau Lafitte ’59 Boogie show Foghat’s knack for turning straightforward material into grinding, high-energy barroom rock. It is a solid snapshot of a band refining its identity during a productive run in the mid-1970s.

Genre: Pop & Rock
