Night Shift was the first Foghat album to include bassist Craig MacGregor, who had toured with the band in support of Fool for the City. The album was produced by Dan Hartman.
MusicHound Rock: The Essential Album Guide called the album "a consistent serving of meat-and-potatoes hard rock." Record Collector wrote that "the title track is Foghat boogie at its very best, while their version of 'Take Me To The River' is one of the best you'll ever hear."[5]
