Happy Birthday Lonesome Dave Peverett

Lonesome Dave Peverett was the lead singer of British blues-rock foursome Foghat. The band's musical roots were steeped in early rock, classic blues/boogie blues, and earned a reputation for exciting concerts, which lead to a loyal fan base. They're best known for the 1975 hit "Slow Ride," "Drivin' Wheel," their concert version of Muddy Waters' hit "I Just Want to Make Love to You," and "Third Time Lucky (First Time I Was a Fool)."

Born in England, Dave Peverett was an ardent fan of such rock pioneers as Chuck Berry and Little Richard. Around age nine, his father got him a guitar. During his teens, Peverett played in various bands, including Cross Ties Blues Band where he met Chris Youlden. In 1967, Peverett and Youldenjoined the band Savoy Brown. Drummer Roger Early and bassist Tony Stevens were band members. Adopting the moniker Lonesome Dave Peverett, he began singing with the band. One song that he sang lead on, "Louisiana Blues," became a crowd favorite. Savoy Brown broke up at the end of 1970.
