Roderick Michael "Rod" Price (22 November 1947 – 22 March 2005) was an English guitarist who was best known for his work with the rock band Foghat. He was known as 'The Magician of Slide', and 'Slide King of Rock And Roll', due to his slide guitar playing.
Career
At the age of 21, Price joined the British blues band Black Cat Bones (replacing Paul Kossoff), which recorded one album, Barbed Wire Sandwich. The album was released at the end of 1969, when British blues was being supplanted by rock, and though artistically successful it was a commercial failure. The band dissolved, and Price joined Foghat when the group was first 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 being 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", which was a top 20 hit in 1976. Price's final performance with Foghat before he left for the first time was at the Philadelphia Spectrum on 16 November 1980. He was replaced by guitarist Erik Cartwright.
In telecommunications, a long-distance call or trunk call is a telephone call made outside a defined local area, usually to another city. These calls are typically characterized by their higher per-minute cost ("national rate" or "overseas rate" instead of local rate), by terminating at a destination served by a different local telephone exchange or by being carried over intercity trunks or interexchange carriers instead of a direct line between two adjacent exchanges.
A long-distance call is not necessarily synonymous with a call to another telephone area code.
Before direct distance dial (first introduced in a handful of markets in 1951), all long-distance calls were operator assisted by a special long-distance operator even in exchanges where calls within the local exchange were direct dial. Completion of intercity calls was time-consuming and costly as each call was handled by multiple operators in multiple cities. Record keeping was also more complex, as the duration of every toll call had to be manually recorded for billing purposes.
A boy named Billy communicates with his father's mother using a toy telephone that she gave him on his birthday before she died. His parents become concerned when Billy spends all his time having "pretend" phone conversations with his deceased grandmother. He says that she tells him she is lonely and misses him.
One day, Billy runs out in front of a car. The driver, who barely manages to swerve out of the way, reports that Billy said someone told him to do it. Later, his mother grabs the phone out of his hands and hears breathing on the other end, convinced that the telephone is a direct link to the dead grandmother. His father still thinks Billy is pretending. His mother takes the phone away, and Billy attempts to drown himself.
An ambulance attendant informs the parents that Billy's chances are not very good. Billy's father goes into Billy's room, picks up the toy phone, and begs his mother to give Billy back and allow him to experience life. The attendants successfully revive Billy as his parents embrace.
The album was later re-released in Mexico as a tour edition with four bonus tracks recorded live in Oslo the 20 April 2006.
It's Never Been Like That was rated number 13 in Pitchfork's Top 50 Albums of 2006 and 38 in their Top Albums of the 2000s. The album has sold 36,000 copies in the United States according to Nielsen SoundScan.
Mexican tour edition / 2006 Virgin Music (France) edition bonus tracks
This edition of the album is referred to as the "New Edition". It was released in France and on tour in Mexico back in 2006, but is now being sold as a 2009 release in the US.
The live tracks were recorded in Oslo on April 20, 2006.

There is a wayThat seems right to a Man But in the end leads to destruction There is a means A means set to it's end Fulfilment found finds destruction. And there's no other way Within distance of our Reasoning And there's no other way Save sweet surrender, Every tower that we build In the name of Mind and power of Man Will be levelled to the ground Leaving us render, a call for sweet surrender. Remember the thoughts of yester-Man
