History
Bad Company formed in London in 1973 as a hard-rock supergroup: singer Paul Rodgers and drummer Simon Kirke (both from Free), guitarist Mick Ralphs (from Mott the Hoople), and bassist Boz Burrell (formerly of King Crimson). They were the first act signed to Led Zeppelin's Swan Song label and were managed by Peter Grant. Their sound was bluesy, riff-driven arena rock built around Rodgers' powerhouse voice. Their first three albums, Bad Company (1974), Straight Shooter (1975), and Run with the Pack (1976), all reached the top five in both the UK and US, spawning hits like "Can't Get Enough," "Feel Like Makin' Love," and the title track "Bad Company." The band has sold over 20 million certified albums in the US alone. A memorable piece of trivia: the band's name came from a spontaneous phone call, when Rodgers said the words "Bad Company" out loud, Ralphs was so startled he dropped the phone. Bad Company were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2025.
