“Well I take whatever I want
and baby I want you”
Bad Company was huge for awhile. Their self titled album was #1 in the US and signature song “Feel Like Making Love” is a classic rock radio staple. Bad Company was among the first so-called super groups formed by Paul Rodgers (vocals), Simon Kirke (drums) from Free, Mick Ralphs (guitar) from Mott the Hoople and Boz Burrell (bass) from King Crimson. “Can’t get Enough” was a major hit reaching Billboard Hot 100 #5. Written by Ralph, the song is the ideal companion to “Feel Like Making Love” with self explanatory lyrics. Bad Company was loud hard rock and Rodgers one of the great rock voices of the 70s.

Yeah, Paul Rodgers definitely has a one-of-a-kind voice (as opposed to so many in the subsequent years who all have one voice ). This isn't my favorite Bad Company song (I'd go with "Shooting Star" or "Oh Atlanta" [no relation to the Little Feat song of the same name, but Alison Krauss covered the Bad Company song!]), but thanks to the uniqueness of Rodgers' voice and the band's sound I don't run away when I hear it.

There's a new Bad Company documentary on Sky arts here in the UK on Friday night I think. It might be Saturday. Love Bad Company. I don't have sky sadly.
