Rod Price

Roderick Michael Price (22 November 1947 – 22 March 2005) was an English guitarist best known for his work with the rock band Foghat. He was known as 'The Magician of Slide', 'The Bottle', and 'Slide King of Rock and Roll', due to his proficiency on slide guitar. Price joined British blues band Black Cat Bones at the age of 21, replacing guitarist Paul Kossoff. They recorded one album, Barbed Wire Sandwich, which was released in early 1970, when British blues was being supplanted by rock. The album was a critical success but a commercial failure.

Black Cat Bones disbanded, and Price joined Foghat when it formed in London in 1971. He played on the band's first ten albums, released from 1972 through to 1980. His signature slide playing ability helped propel the band to be one of the most successful rock groups in the United States during the 1970s. His slide playing was featured distinctly on Foghat songs "Drivin' Wheel", "Stone Blue", and the group's biggest hit, "Slow Ride", Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Willie Dixon, and David "Honeyboy" Edwards.
