Arguably out of gas a few albums ago, the Foghat camp soldiered on with this, essentially a covers record which is notable for its lack of presence just as much as Tight Shoes was. The 80's faux-modern production really works against the group now in a number of ways - the worst one being, the majority of the covers are in an old R&B vein, so the re-makes feel cheaper here. Also, I can't get over the feeling Peverett and crew were simply grinding this out to get it done. At least Tight Shoes had a certain feel of tense anguish going for it, and the previous album brought back a bit of the good times - this In The Mood hogwash does nothing in particular for anyone, sad to say.
