A great show with Foghat jamming with some of their heroes. Shot in a somewhat documentary style, with voice overs from Lonesome Dave Peverett. The performances are awesome, Foghat backs everyone but Johnny Winter & Muddy Waters who play with Muddy Waters' backing group, then everyone jams on "I Just Want To Make Love To You" for the finale. Foghat fans and blues fans alike need this rare show. All proceeds from the concert went to developing a Blues Wing in the New York Public Library.

The DVD itself is made from a copy of the pre-broadcast tape, there are spots where it says insert commercial here. The tape appears to be of low generation. There was a big difference in volume and sound fidelity between the first 2 tracks and the rest of the video, I tried to fix this as best I could.

My track list doesn't quite follow the cover art but seemed a more logical separation to me. 9 of the named performers at this show have passed on, to paraphrase Alan O'Day ..You know they got a hell of a band !
