Drums: Roger Earl Rhythm Guitar: Lonesome Dave Bass: Tony Stevens Keyboards: Bob Hall & Collin Earle 1979 - London Records Collectors Series 1969 - Previously released as: "Warren Phillips and the Rockets" Art Coordination: Cyd Kilbey Cover Illustration: Steve Alexander Engineer: Roy Thomas |
| The "Before Foghat Days" LP (1979) was an unknown album to most people. According to the liner notes, during a break in the studio while recording Savoy Brown's "A Step Further" album, Dave, Tony and Roger started jamming, picking old rockabilly tunes off the top of their heads. Unknown to them, the engineer had the tapes rolling. After hearing |
| ||
|
the tapes they decided
to record a few more songs and release it as an album. It was originally released
in '69 as "Warren Phillips and the Rockets - Rocked Out." It is done in the old Sun
Records style, and the original idea was to write phony
liner notes about the
lost recordings of the "legendary" Warren Phillips. It says 95% was recorded
in one take, a few songs being "Shake, Rattle, and Roll," "Money Honey," and
"Matchbox." One song even features a kazoo solo by Dave. | |||
| Yet another version of this album was also released in 1969 as "The World of Rock and Roll: Warren Phillips and the Rockets." This version included a 13th song (High School Confidential) at the end of side one. |
