After building a solid core audience through relentless touring and a string of hard-rocking albums, Foghat finally hit the big time in with Fool for the City. It still stands out as the best album in the group's catalog because it matched their road-tested abilities as hard rockers to a consistent set of tunes that were both well-crafted and ambitious.

The tone for the album is set by its title track: This hard-rocking gem not only pairs riff-driven verses with an effective shout-along chorus, but also throws in a few surprising moments where the guitars are taken out of the mix completely and Nick Jameson 's bass is allowed to take the lead in a funky breakdown.

Further radio play was earned with "Take It or Leave It," an acoustic-based ballad that worked synthesizers into its subtle yet carefully layered arrangement to become one of the group's finest slow numbers. The album's other songs don't stand like the aforementioned selections, but they all flow together nicely thanks to a consistently inspired performance from the band and clever little arrangement frills that keep the group's boogie-oriented rock fresh example: the witty spoken word bit at the end of "Drive Me Home".

All in all, Fool for the City is both Foghat 's finest achievement in the studio and one of the high points of s hard rock.
