Bad Company is an English rock supergroup founded in 1973, consisting of two former Free band members — singer Paul Rodgers and drummer Simon Kirke — as well as Mott the Hoople guitarist Mick Ralphs and King Crimson bassist Boz Burrell. Peter Grant, who, in years prior, was a key component of fellow British rock band Led Zeppelin's rise to fame, managed the band.

Bad Company: Live in Concert 1977 & 1979

Rumor has it that in their prime, Paul Rodgers and Bad Company rivaled even Led Zeppelin as hard-rock’s biggest hedonists, so it was only fitting that they called Zep’s own Swan Song label home. As songwriters, the band didn’t exactly tackle the deepest subject matter—“Ready for Love,” “FeelLike Makin’ Love” and “Can’t Get Enough” (of, you guessed it, your love) are just a few of the classics—but, as a live unit, they brought the wood, so to speak, in a primal display of bludgeoning riffs that gave Rodgers ample room to show off his silk-and-sandpaper vocal chops. Strangely enough, this is Bad Co.’s first official live album, and it offers up some hidden gems that shocked Rodgers himself when he heard the tapes. Of the two dates spread over two discs, the Houston show from ‘77 stands out; guitarist Mick Ralphs gets a punchier sound and trades gutsy licks with Rodgers, especially on the extended vamp that closes “Live for the Music.” Relative rarities are the outstanding “Leaving You” (in a higher key, with more fire than the original Burnin’ Sky version) and “Simple Man,” which finds Rodgers testing his limits over the muscular rhythms of the late Boz Burrell on bass and Simon Kirke on drums. Back when an arena full of rock fans—some pleasantly stoned, some decidedly otherwise—would spark their lighters and sway as one, this is the music that brought them together.

Bad Company is a british hard rock band with strong blues influences. They rose to prominence in the mid 70s, but have a career, which spans over 4 decades. The band derived it’s name from a 70s Western film and are in many ways considered a supergroup.

Bad Company’s roots spread across 4 different bands. Two of it’s members Paul Rodgers (singer) and Simon Kirke (drummer) made up half of Free, the group’s guitarist Mick Ralphs was previously in Mott the Hoople and their bassist Boz Burrell was recruited from King Crimson. Their manger Peter Grant also managed Led Zeppelin, a group who is one of Bad Company’s greatest influences. Bad Company also drew inspiration from proto-metal bands like Steppenwolf as well as formative electric blues figures such as Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf; however, their sound was more akin to acts like Nazareth or Thin Lizzy.

The group formed in 1973 and shortly after signed to Led Zeppelin’s Swan Song vanity label, making them the first group to do so. Their self-titled debut came out in 1974 and did exceptionally well in the market. It topped the US Billboard 200 and since it’s release has been certified platinum 5 times over, becoming the 46th best selling album of the 70s. The album also made a big impact in the UK, staying on the charts for 25 weeks peaking at No. 3.

This album boosted Bad Company into stardom and seemingly spawned a growth of creativity as they produced 3 more albums at a yearly rate. Their sophomore release “Straight Shooter” entered both the UK and US charts at No. 3, their 3rd album “Run With the Pack” peaked at No. 4 in the UK and No. 5 in the US and their 4th album “Burnin’ Sky” did significantly worse comparative to it predecessors but nevertheless entered the charts at an impressive No.15 in the US and No.17 in the UK.

The group’s 1979 album “Desolation Angeles” abandoned the hard edge sound and grit of their previous releases, swapping sharp distorted guitars for string arrangements and synthesizers. This marked the band’s return to chart domination as the album rose to No. 3 in the US and No. 10 in the UK.

Bad Company had a rough start in the 80s. They lost interest in touring and their longtime manager Peter Grant quit managing after the passing away of Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham. The group took a break from recording, but returned 3 years later with “Rough Diamonds”, which would be the last album they recorded together as the original lineup. Despite the audience’s anticipation of their return “Rough Diamonds” was the worst selling album the band had yet released.

Not long after this release, Rodgers and Burrell left the band. It was later revived by Ralphs and Kirke and featured a new lineup, featuring Ted Nugent’s vocalist Brian Howe. It took a while for the revisionary group to catch on. Their album “Fame & Fortune” was commercially unsuccessful, sporting a title that seemed to mock them. However they picked up momentum with their follow up album “Dangerous Age” and were back on track with their 1990 release “Holy Water”, which featured the top 20 hit “If You Need Someone”. Bad Compony’s success seemed to be on an exponential incline as their next album “Here Comes Trouble” reached platinum status and produced the hit “How About That”. A year later the band added bassist Rick Willis and rhythm guitarist Dave Coldwell.

After the group issued their live album “Best of Bad Company Live...What You Hear Is What You Get” they put out 2 more studio albums in the 90s: 1995s “Company of Strangers” and 1996s “Stories Told & Untold”.

Though Bad Company has not released any albums in the 2000s they continued touring, many dates alongside acts like David Lee Roth, Styx, Billy Squier, and Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Live reviews

In full disclosure both Joe Walsh and Bad Company are a little "before my time" by just a bit.

As I came up thru the 80's more so than the 70's heyday.

I'm very familiar with both Musicians/ Bands body of work but they were not necessarily ingrained in me as much let's say?

That being said. There is something about the music from that period that was/ is just "better"?

Better song writing, better hooks, better vibe, better musicianship in general etc etc... and though you may have heard "Jukebox Hero" or "Rocky Mountain way" a few hundred times on the Radio you still find yourself clapping and singing along when the opening chords strike like greeting an old friend!

The problem with Bands that have been around for damn near 40yrs (or longer) is that sometimes, they can turn into a mockery of themselves or some deranged "lounge Act" version.

Not the case with Joe Walsh who not only has put together a top notch back up Band, including among others long time Stevie Knicks guitarist Waddy Wachtel, but also is a very funny (if sometime incoherent) storyteller!

Hearing him intro "Rocky Mountain Way" as "a love song I was writing on a beach in Jamaica that went horribly wrong" and "that if I knew I would be playing this the rest of my life I wouldn't have finish it"! was comedic genius!

And He doesn't rest on his back catalog either with the fantastic "Analog Man" from his latest album fitting perfectly into his classic set without missing a beat.

throw in some James Gang gems like "Funk #49 & Walk Away" plus some Eagles in the form of

"Take it to the limit" (dedicated to the late Glen Frey) and "Life in the Fast Lane"

You got a pretty well rounded career spanning set.

And the man can still play guitar like nobodies business don't worry!

Bad Company was a bit tricky for me.

The show was solid and the sound was mixed very well and basically BAD Co. was a Radio hit machine so... the songs!

And everyone was on no question!

Simon Kirk is still a Monster drummer and pushes the songs forward the most live.

Paul Rodgers still has a great voice but I felt He was maybe holding back a bit here and there?

Todd Ronning who replaced original Bass Player Boz Burrell who passed away in 2006 does a fine job and was the most energetic on stage I thought.

Howard Reese has been with Bad Co since 2008 and does a fine job on Guitar.

Rich Robinson who is filling in for original guitarist Mick Ralphs due to medical issues is a great guitarist but really is not a "showman" and I think smiled twice all night?

On the face of it Bad Company gave a great performance but, for me anyway, I felt like they were maybe playing it a bit too safe? You could use the age excuse I guess but I have the feeling that really isn't it and I felt they could have turned it up one or two notches in the energy Dept is all (off night maybe).

All and all it was a great night out listening to classic rock songs from the Golden era of Rock N' Roll so... Money well spent.

Report as inappropriate

Well, I have seen BAD COMPANY last year @ the Fantasy Springs Resort and Casino and no doubt about it that Paul Rodgers is one amazing singer and his band is truly remarkable. This is perhaps the third time I have seen a concert in an open setting. The only problem is that you have to walk half a mile to get to the venue. I ended up listening to 5 songs and almost did not make it for the bus that was to take me there was about to leave. From where I was dropped, here comes the walking a half mile that felt like it was a never ending one and to top it all, I forgot to bring with my lighter and had to ask people a favor if they had one. The weather was great and I was able to find the right spot to watch this awesome band. The highlight of them all is that when Paul introduced his grandchildren to all of us jam packed crowd. With that being said it reminded me of my grandchildren too. A great concert and I will never stop watching BAD COMPANY every time they are here in the desert. The lesson of this message is that if you are watching a concert in an open area like PGA, make sure you make it on time and give yourself an extra hour for parking and walking. More power to your music Paul and BAD COMPANY. Hope to see you again next year. God bless BAD COMPANY.

Check out Bad Company while you still can. Last year they celebrated their 40th anniversary tour and killed it. They dusted off a string of hits including 'Moving On', Feel Like Making Love', Can't Get Enough' and more. They have energy, their chops and can rock a crowd like back in the day. Paul Rogers' voice has earned its way into Rolling Stones' Top One Hundred Best Rock Vocalists, and for good reason. He still has and has always had a golden voice with an incredible dynamic range. Mick Ralph's guitar is as impressive as ever and Simon Kirke's drumming is as rock solid as the first downbeat of their debut album in 1974. The first band to be signed to Led Zeppelin's newly formed Swan Song Records, they were solid rockstars that came from Free and King Crimson and were out on a mission to get back to simpler more driving rock music. I love these guys!

Sad to say i didn't attend .Bad Company is my FAVORITE all time band ! And so i know they were Awesome as Always ! Being a Grandmother, my grandson had a appendicitis attack 2am Friday morning,so couldn't leave him . Gave 2 tickets away...ate the other 2.So only thing i can suggest...get Insurance on ur tickets ! My friend suggested it to me...but i said hell No...Nothing is keeping me from seeing Bad Company !!! Who wud have known...so my Suggestion...think about getting Insurance on ur Tickets...u Never no ....! I LOVE YOU BAD COMPANY TO THE MOON and Back!!!

I went to The Joint in Catoosa, Oklahoma on the 26th of October to see Bad Company. The venue was great and the show was FANTASTIC!!! Paul Rodgers sounds as good as he did the first time I saw them back in 1974. He sang all of their hits. It brought back so many memories. I would highly recommend to anyone to go see this show. It will be worth it.

Connie Allen

I took my brother hadn't sen a concert in a long time.. Yet alone be town town on the lake front.. We had the most amazing time the sound was amazing the music was hot on a nice cool lake front breeze.. Bad Compamy once again had my heart pounding.. Paul Rogers has the voice if a god!!!! Next stop hall of frame for that awesome man...

The show was so good, I just had to write another review. I enjoy going to concerts. And this one is right up there on top of my list. Paul Rogers still sounds exactly the same. This show is worth seeing again and again. Thank you Bad Company for making me feel young again. So many memories!

All I can say is wow! Bad Company is still amazing. Paul Rodgers is an exciting entertainer who has one of the best voices in rock n' roll. Simon Kirke plays the drums with power and passion and is a joy to watch perform.

Their 80 minutes set was full of non stop music and kept us on our feet the entire show.

I LOVE BAD COMPANY!!!!

I have seen A lot of concerts and this one was by far the best I had seen. Paul Rogers you are so multi talented and a voice of a King..

You as a band only get better and better. I seen them in Lincoln CA.

Thanks S.B.:)

Show started on time and they came out hot and rocking. The show was up tempo and the band sounded great. Paul’s voice was strong and awesome, music was spot on And fans were kept standing all night. Bad Company still tops for pure rock and roll.

Now Available: Bad Company, Live in Concert 1977 & 1979

Rock ‘n’ roll reigned supreme in the ‘70s, and of the bands that made the rounds and regularly tore the roofs off arenas, Bad Company was among the best of the best. That’s why it’s a little surprising that the band never released a live album during their original reign over the charts. Fortunately, a dig through the archives has provided us with the opportunity to remedy that situation. In fact, we’re not only remedying it, we’re delivering two Bad Company concerts in one handy collection, and they’re both from the band’s ‘70s heyday.

LIVE IN CONCERT 1977 & 1979 is a double-CD set featuring over two and a half hours of previously-unreleased live material taken from 24-track tapes in the band’s vault, and it’s absolutely a “what you hear is what you would’ve heard is you were there” situation. Yes, the set is available digitally. No, it’s not available on vinyl yet, but it’s coming...or, rather, they’re coming, as the two concerts are being released individually.

The first disc was recorded on May 23, 1977 at Houston’s Summit House. The second disc was almost entirely recorded on May 9, 1979 in London. Why the “almost entirely” caveat? Because there’s one track – a cover of “Hey Joe” – that was recorded on March 9, 1979 at the Capitol Center in Washington, DC. Call it a bonus. You’re welcome.

Here’s the full track listing for your viewing pleasure, and after you’ve viewed it, be sure to go pick up a copy and enjoy some listening pleasure as well.

Disc One: Live at The Summit, Houston, Texas (5/23/77) 1. "Burnin' Sky" 2. "Too Bad" 3. "Ready For Love" 4. "Heartbeat" 5. "Morning Sun" 6. "Man Needs Woman" 7. "Leaving You" 8. "Shooting Star" 9. "Simple Man" 10. "Movin' On" 11. "Like Water" 12. "Live For The Music" 13. Drum Solo 14. "Good Lovin' Gone Bad" 15. "Feel Like Makin' Love"

Disc Two: Live at The Empire Pool, Wembley, London (3/9/79) 1. "Bad Company" 2. "Gone, Gone, Gone" 3. "Shooting Star" 4. "Rhythm Machine" 5. "Oh, Atlanta" 6. "She Brings Me Love" 7. "Run With The Pack" 8. "Evil Wind" 9. Drum Solo 10. "Honey Child" 11. "Rock Steady" 12. "Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy" 13. "Hey Joe"* 14. "Feel Like Makin' Love" 15. "Can't Get Enough"

* Recorded at Capitol Center, Washington, DC (6/26/79)

Bad Company: Live 1977 And 1979

First-ever official live lp from genial 70s stadium rockers..

Listening to Paul Rodgers’s in-between song patter on this album, the feeble sex joke with which he introduces Morning Sun, you feel that Bad Company belonged not so much to heavier, metaller times but gentler, simpler times.

Yet they could really play; ex-Mott The Hoople guitarist Mick Ralphs probably deserves to be better known for the immense, dazzling fluidity of his playing. Meanwhile, Feel Like Making Love , which ends the 1977 disc, still breaks bad.

All the same, Bad Company felt like they’d have been more content in a barroom than in a stadium. By 1979, they were still in demand, despite New Wave and its new era. Rhythm Machine , however, is not a reference to synth pop but to R&B, of which the song in question is a prime slice, though it’s their grimly humungous version of the ubiquitous Hey Joe which stands out on this collection.

'One Hell Of A Night' Co-Headlining North American Tour Kicks Off On May 12

LOS ANGELES - Despite its reputation as one of the most exciting live bands to ever rock an arena in the Seventies, Bad Company never released a live album during its meteoric rise to the top of the charts. That will soon change when Rhino introduces the first-ever official live album to spotlight the original Bad Company line up: Paul Rodgers, Mick Ralphs, Simon Kirke and Boz Burrell.

LIVE IN CONCERT 1977 & 1979 will be available on April 29 as a double-CD set for a suggested retail price of $19.98. The collection includes more than two-and-half hours of unreleased music taken from 24-track tapes in the band's vault. The music heard on this live collection features absolutely no enhancements or overdubs, nothing but the band as they performed live on the night of the concert. Vinyl fans take note: the concerts will also be released individually as double-LP sets later this year.

LIVE IN CONCERT 1977 & 1979 includes two previously unreleased concerts - with one additional track taken from the group's June 26, 1979 show in Washington, DC.

The first disc captures the band's show at the Summit House in Houston, Texas, which took place on May 23, 1977. It was recorded during Bad Company's tour supporting its fourth studio album Burning Sky. After opening with the title track from the album, the band went on to play selections from all its previous albums: Run with the Pack (1976), Straight Shooter (1975) and Bad Company (1974). Among the crowd-pleasing highlights are strong performances of "Shooting Star," "Ready For Love," "Good Lovin' Gone Bad" and "Feel Like Makin' Love."

The next disc fast-forwards two years to the band's March 9, 1979 show in London, which was recorded during the band's tour for its multi-platinum album, Desolation Angels. Several songs from that album were performed during the show, including "Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy," "Gone, Gone, Gone" and "She Brings Me Love." The group also performed several songs from earlier albums that weren't part of the 1977 concert, like "Run With the Pack," "Rock Steady" and "Can't Get Enough."

LIVE IN CONCERT 1977 & 1979 also includes the band's stellar cover of "Hey Joe," which was recorded on March 9, 1979 at the Capitol Center in Washington, DC.

LIVE IN CONCERT 1977 & 1979 Track Listing:

Disc One: Live at The Summit, Houston, Texas (5/23/77) 1. "Burnin' Sky" 2. "Too Bad" 3. "Ready For Love" 4. "Heartbeat" 5. "Morning Sun" 6. "Man Needs Woman" 7. "Leaving You" 8. "Shooting Star" 9.

Complete List Of Bad Company Albums And Songs

Feature Photo: Glynnis Jones / Shutterstock.com

This Complete List Of Bad Company Albums And Songs presents the full discography of  Bad Company studio albums. The band Bad Company was first formed in 1973.  The group Bad Company hails from the area of Albury, Surrey, England.  This complete Bad Company discography also includes every single Bad Company live album. All these spectacular Bad Company albums have been presented below in chronological order. We have also included all original release dates with each Bad Company album as well as all original Bad Company album covers. Every Bad Company album listed below showcases the entire Bad Company album tracklisting.

BAD COMPANY STUDIO ALBUMS

Bad company.

Released 1974

Do you remember when this album came out? Do you remember your jaw dropping when you saw the Swan Songs Led Zeppelin label?  Bad Company was one of the first acts signed to Led Zeppelin’s own label. This was big news back then. Bad Company’s eponymous debut album established them as one of our favorite bands of all time. The album featured hits like “Can’t Get Enough” and “Movin’ On.” The album soared in the charts, achieving multi-platinum status.

The original lineup consisted of Paul Rodgers on vocals, Mick Ralphs on guitar, Simon Kirke on drums, and Boz Burrell on bass. The album was produced by the band themselves and was released on Swan Song Records. It was recorded at Headley Grange, Hampshire, England in November 1973.

CD Track Listings:

• “Can’t Get Enough” – 4:16
• “Rock Steady” – 3:46
• “Ready for Love” – 5:01
• “Don’t Let Me Down” – 4:22
• “Bad Company” – 4:50
• “The Way I Choose” – 5:05
• “Movin’ On” – 3:21
• “Seagull” – 4:06

Straight Shooter

Released 1975

Continuing the momentum of their debut, “Straight Shooter” displayed the band’s aptitude for blending mellow tracks like “Feel Like Makin’ Love” with hard rock anthems like “Good Lovin’ Gone Bad.”  Again, the original lineup took charge and produced the album themselves. Released on Swan Song Records, the album was recorded at Clearwell Castle, Gloucestershire, with Ronnie Lane’s Mobile Studio, in September 1974. While we loved the first Bad Company album, we liked this one even more. Everybody went crazy over the song “Shooting Star.”

• “Good Lovin’ Gone Bad” – 3:35
• “Feel Like Makin’ Love” – 5:12
• “Weep No More” – 3:59
• “Shooting Star” – 6:16
• “Deal With the Preacher” – 5:01
• “Wild Fire Woman” – 4:32
• “Anna” – 3:41
• “Call on Me” – 6:03

Run With the Pack

Released 1976

“Run With the Pack” marked Bad Company’s third consecutive platinum-selling album, showcasing the band’s knack for creating robust and appealing rock staples such as “Silver, Blue & Gold” and the title track “Run With the Pack.”

Maintaining the original lineup and self-producing, the album was released on Swan Song Records. It was recorded in France using Ronnie Lane’s Mobile Studio in September and October 1975. Hands down, this is our favorite Bad Company album. The title track just blew our minds when it came out. This one wore our record player needles out.

• “Live for the Music” – 3:58
• “Simple Man” – 3:37
• “Honey Child” – 3:15
• “Love Me Somebody” – 3:09
• “Run with the Pack” – 5:21
• “Silver, Blue & Gold” – 5:03
• “Young Blood” – 2:37
• “Do Right by Your Woman” – 2:51
• “Sweet Lil’ Sister” – 3:29
• “Fade Away” – 2:54

Burnin’ Sky

Released 1977

While not replicating the chart-topping success of its predecessors, “Burnin’ Sky” was a commendable effort, offering listeners a matured, yet spirited sound, with tracks like “Everything I Need” and “Burnin’ Sky.” This was a cool album.

The lineup and self-production approach remained consistent, and it was released on Swan Song Records. Recording took place at Ridge Farm Studio in Surrey, England, from November 1976 to January 1977.

• “Burnin’ Sky” – 5:09
• “Morning Sun” – 4:07
• “Leaving You” – 3:24
• “Like Water” – 4:27
• “Everything I Need” – 3:22
• “Heartbeat” – 2:36
• “Peace of Mind” – 3:22
• “Passing Time” – 2:30
• “Too Bad” – 3:47
• “Man Needs Woman” – 3:43
• “Master of Ceremony” – 7:10

Desolation Angels

Released 1979

“Desolation Angels” exemplified a more mature Bad Company with a deeper exploration into their sound, adding subtle twists without losing their foundational rock edge. The album brought forth classics like “Rock ‘n’ Roll Fantasy” and “Gone, Gone, Gone.” This is probably our second favorite Bad Company album. Those two songs stand as some of the best material the band ever released. I can still remember hearing them being played on the radio so many years ago. The good old high school days in the 1970s.

Musicians included the foundational lineup of Rodgers, Ralphs, Kirke, and Burrell, with production by Bad Company. The album was released under Swan Song Records and recorded at Ridge Farm Studio in Surrey, England, in 1978.

• “Rock ‘n’ Roll Fantasy” – 3:19
• “Crazy Circles” – 3:31
• “Gone, Gone, Gone” – 3:49
• “Evil Wind” – 4:19
• “Early in the Morning” – 5:45
• “Lonely for Your Love” – 3:28
• “Oh, Atlanta” – 4:07
• “Take the Time” – 4:14
• “Rhythm Machine” – 3:46
• “She Brings Me Love” – 4:41

Rough Diamonds

Released 1982

“Rough Diamonds” would be the last album that featured the original lineup until four members reunited in the late 1990s. The record encompasses a variety of styles and tempos yet still channels the iconic Bad Company rock vibe, with notable tracks like “Electricland” and “Untie the Knot.”

Produced by Bad Company and engineered by Chris Kimsey, “Rough Diamonds” was released on Swan Song Records and recorded at Ridge Farm Studio in Surrey, England, in early 1982.

Fame and Fortune

Released 1986

“Fame and Fortune” introduced a fresh line-up and a noticeable shift in Bad Company’s sound, embracing a smoother, more polished production with a contemporary 80s twist. The album carries its weight with melodic tracks like “This Love” and “Fame and Fortune.”

Musicians on this album were Simon Kirke, Mick Ralphs, and new members Steve Price (bass), Greg Dechert (keyboards), and Brian Howe (vocals). It was produced by Keith Olsen and Bad Company, and released under Atlantic Records. The recording took place in 1986 at The Sol Berkshire and The Farmyard Buckinghamshire, England.

• “Hold on My Heart” – 4:40
• “Valerie” – 3:28
• “When We Made Love” – 4:14
• “If I’m Sleeping” – 4:22

Dangerous Age

Released 1988

“Dangerous Age” exhibited a further immersion into the 80s rock sound, typified by sharper production, synth layers, and a generally more upbeat, commercial approach. Tracks like “One Night” and “No Smoke Without a Fire” carry the record’s dynamic spirit.

With a stable lineup from the previous album and production managed by Terry Thomas and Bad Company, the album was released under Atlantic Records and recorded at various locations including The Sol Berkshire and The Farmyard Buckinghamshire, England, in 1988.

• “One Night” – 4:38

• “The Way That It Goes” – 3:30

Released 1990

Into the 1990s we went not realizing that grunge music and a band called Nirvana would turn the rock music world upside down making it tough for classic rock bands like Bad Company to survive.

Musicians on the album included: Brian Howe (vocals), Mick Ralphs (guitar), Simon Kirke (drums), Felix Krish (bass), and Greg Dechert (keyboards). Produced by Tony Harris and Bad Company, and released under Atco Records. It was recorded at various locations in England in 1989.

Released 1996

The album “Stories Told & Untold” brought a unique concept to Bad Company’s discography, featuring re-recorded classic hits along with new material, providing fresh takes on legendary tracks and introducing gems like “Where I Belong” and “Hold On My Heart.” I never liked albums like this, it’s one thing to change songs in a live setting, but studio songs should stay forever as they were originally released. You cant change history.
