Heavy Metal Roots & Branches Post #4

Muddy Waters, B.B. King, Howlin' Wolf etc, were very instrumental in the genesis of Hard Rock & Heavy Metal. The Blues is the foundation for Rock & Roll and all it's children. If you want a little proof just listen to any Hard Rock group from the 1970's, Free, Bad Company, Led Zeppelin, Mountain, The Jeff Beck Group, Humble Pie, and more played a Heavy Blues/ Hard Rock that morphed into the Traditional Heavy Metal of bands like Thin Lizzy and UFO.

With a very quick search, I couldn't find any info on B.B. King's piano player Kato, if any one could elaborate a little please leave the info in the comments section.

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 !
