Foghat’s Fool For the City is an iconic 70s album — and in this episode, drummer and founding member Roger Earl returns to VRP Rocks to celebrate its 50th anniversary. From the legendary anthem Slow Ride to deep cuts that helped make Foghat a household name in the U.S., this is a full deep-dive into the record that changed everything.

In this extended conversation, Roger reveals the stories behind the songs, the recording process with producer Nick Jameson, the creation of that unforgettable album cover and what it felt like to finally crack the American market. If you're a fan of Foghat or classic rock history in general, this episode is packed with insights, laughs and rock 'n' roll tales you won’t want to miss.
