Featuring “Can’t Get Enough”, “Rock Steady”, “Movin’ On”, “Ready for Love”, “Seagull”, and the timeless theme song”Bad Company”, Paul Rodgers, Mick Ralphs, and Simon Kirke are In the Studio for the fiftieth anniversary of one of the most popular debuts ever the week of May 6.
Bad Company ended the Seventies decade strongly on the wings of “Desolation Angels” forty-five years ago, and Paul Rodgers, Mick Ralphs, and Simon Kirke join Redbeard In the Studio to recall making “Rock and Roll Fantasy”,”Oh Atlanta”, and “Gone Gone Gone”.
