I dont often reach for the typical classic rock stuff but this album is well worth a listen despite hearing a couple tracks a few too many times in the seventies,
The album has a couple members from the group Free most impotantly it included one of the best vocalists of all time Mr Paul Rodgers;
With Mick Ralphs on Guitar and Boz Berell on bass they created a masterpiece that was never topped by them but several later attempts came close.
With mel collins on sax and engineered by Tom Nevison and being on the Swan song label it meant that the production was going to be top notch and it sure was.
Incuding the crowd favorites, Cant get enough and the title track, 'Bad company' there is Ready for love, and Movin On and Rock Steady all classic vintage tunes from this groups initial effort.
i even like the look of the cool black album cover with just the name of the band in big white letters.
Finally I have to say that I love love love the last song on this album "SEAGULL" which to me is one of the most beautiful acoustic guitar and vocals from Mr Rodgers I ever heard almost brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it.
I put this on after a long time of not hearing it and fell in love with the album all over again......played it twice today!!!!!
