Great to hear when someone as unique and skilled as Paul continues to sound great. I saw him in 86 and he did not disappoint!
This is one AMAZING album!!! Paul came back even stronger and STILL sounds fantastic!!!
Paul Rodgers one of the all time greats.Will be picking this one up
Brandon!!! Thank You for your review !! I can't stop listening to this cd! It is just AWESOME!! Paul Rodgers is still " THE VOICE"
Always appreciate the Great Info. 😄
Thanks Brendon for the review. I also appreciate how on top you are with new releases.
Nice review! Got to get this one!
Great review, Brendon! Also worth mentioning is that Paul Rodgers has been to Hell and back during the last few years with healthscare upon healthscare. He had nine minor strokes, and two big ones, went through surgery that could have killed him, recovered and once again sounds like Paul Rodgers!
Yes to all but that doesn’t change the inactivity of Bad Company. He could have said “oh yes we’re still working on an album it’s just taking longer because of my health” but that’s not what was said. Just alerting those that keep saying Bad Co is working on an album that in fact they are not and the process has stopped with the bad being inactive at the moment.
Great review, Brendon. I am really enjoying this album.
Great review of a legend! You have a very knowledgable take on his career and current skill set. Put this man in the Rock Hall!
Once again I was hesitant about buying a new release with this album and the Andy Taylor one but you convinced me because of reviews and thoughts on these.
Thanks
My pleasure! I hope you find the new album as enjoyable as I have.
I've seen Bad Company 5 times. Hoping he'll tour again.
I’ve seen them twice but this was in the 90’s with Robert Hart fronting the band. But I’m a big fan of both the Brian Howe and Robert Hart eras.
I’m lucky enough to seen Bad Company back in 2016 with Joe Walsh. Show was amazing and Paul Rodgers was amazing
I ordered the vinyl LP of this which is to be autographed by Paul himself. Hopefully it arrives soon so I can enjoy the music as well as the signature. Thanks for the video.
Melting is also my favorite track on the Album
Thanks for this review was in two minds about getting this.I like the way it has been packaged.I still have my original vinyl from the day of Cut Loose which is awesome.On a new release note the new Baroness release sounds great.
Hopefully the review helped sway you one way or the other so now you know if you want it or not. 👍
Brendon, after watching your excellent review I immediately ordered the Paul Rodgers CD. I love Rodgers and that review prompted me to order it quickly. I only saw him live once [front row though] and his voice is so powerful. Unlike yourself, all the music stores around here are vinyl only. You can't find CDs around here anymore. I am writing to point out that you have expressed how you prefer jewel cases over digipaks. I am 50/50 on that because there are bad jewel case packages and great digipaks. I think it is all over the board. I would think that you have to agree that this may be the perfect physical format and presentation for a CD. It has so much included. I was really pleased opening it. Thoughts?
Rodgers is nowa Canadian citizen, lives in BC and could be the connection to fellow Canadian Bob Rock ..one of the coolest shows I attended was Rodgers touring his Muddy Waters Blues release in the mid 90's .. in a small club in Toronto.. he has like 10 feet away .....
👍
After this video I will have to Give it a quick listen to!
In few.days I'll receive mine looking forward to it,just few days ago find cut loose on vinyl.
You missed the Best album Paul has done : Paul Rodgers - Live: The Hendrix set with Neil Schon from Journey. He also had a great Blues album - Paul Rodgers - Muddy Waters Blues.
😎👍
I really like this album. 8 really good songs!
As they say…all killer, no filler
I love Paul Rodgers just like everyone else here but after, what, 22 years, all we get here are a mere 29 minutes of new music. I would imagine this would be it as far as new music is concerned as Paul is now 73 and I can't see a whole lot more coming and with music the way it is today turning a profit on any music release, especially from a classic rock artist is a stretch. It's still great to have a new solo release from him but I would have expected at least an album's worth.
@@pas6856 True and from what I heard it sounds great but was just expecting more as far as length.
I am a huge Paul Rodgers fan and have pretty much everything he has ever sang on. i really like this disc, I think its a reflection of where Paul is now in his life, not the young cocky blues belter of free and bad co. There is some of that on the disc but I feel this really is a mature album, I like that he has Keith Scott (bryan adams lead guitarist) playing leads on it. A great guitarist who really plays for the song and not just riffing away. A very solid disc and one of his best solo albums of his career.
BTW nice G&L guitar in the background reminds me of Jerry Cantrells from alice in chains!
That’s because it’s the same model as his. It’s a G&L Rampage.
Paul Rodgers is only one of the greats ih his seventies, besides Hughes and maybe Plant, who is able to perform, create and sing music as equaly good as in their prime. This album confirms that and God bless him.
Any story about the guitar that has magically appeared in your last couple of videos?
No. It’s my guitar and I placed it behind me. 🤷♂️
Nice review, but how do you not mention the Muddy Water Blues album? I know you didn't mention all his records, but Now, The Hendrix Set and Muddy Waters Blues didn't get mentions and Muddy Waters Blues is amazing. Blues classics with a who's who of guitarists: Jeff Beck, David Gilmour, Brian May, Steve Miller, Buddy Guy, Gary Moore, Trevor Rabin, Neal Schon, Richie Sambora, Slash and Brian Setzer.
It was just an overview hitting key point. It wasn’t about covering his whole career album by album and it certainly wasn’t about which albums were best that he released. It was all in an effort to set up the review of the new album. Since the new album didn’t have anything to do with cover albums I omitted the two cover albums. I wanted to focus on his original work. 👍
@@BrendonSnyder Fair enough.
Produced by Ray Roper (of Stonebolt) and Bob Rock
No actually it’s produced by Cynthia Rodgers and Bob Rock. Then it’s executive produced by Ray Roper & Todd Ronning. So when I said that Bob Rock co-produced it, he did but he did it with Cynthia Rodgers.
I just had a listen to the opening track, and it's great! I can't wait to listen to the rest. I got his last album, "Free Spirit," which was a live tribute to Free, and that was a great record as well. Rodgers sounds better now than he did when he was younger, and having seen him live in 2015, I can tell you that he has lost none of his vocal and performance powers.
the kids would probably only know him as the guy singing the chorus in that Eminem song “Beautiful “
Because of Eminem they know who he is. It’s like Post Malone introducing his fans to Ozzy. Now Ozzy has a boost and a second resurgence. How young people get into music shouldn’t be the issue. Just the fact that they have been exposed is what’s good.
that "heart" looks like something else besides a heart, if you know what i mean. 😆😛
I thought the same thing
I was about to post that myself...looks less like a heart and more like a c0ck and balls
Paul's hangy ol' balls, perhaps?
Its a decent album. I've only listened to it once. But he's one of the best vocalists in rock n roll
Please do more Glam Metal Gems!
Wrong video to request that on
It’s pleasant, maybe a bit too safe. I bet Anthony hates it.
I attended 2 concerts on subsequent tours by Paul some 20 + years ago. Each time he managed just 1 hour (including the 'obvious' encore) whilst for some reason holding up the microphone stand for most of the concert. I don't know if this was a display of machismo but we all felt short-changed. Well this album cost me £33 for the vinyl version which equats to £1 per minute of music and again i feel short-changed. After 23 years surely Rodgers has garnered more material than this? The voice still stands up well and the material is quite good (with Melting being the stand out track) but this is, in essence, an extended E.P.
Paul sounds great but the album sounds to polished and boring sorry just could not get into it. And im the biggest Bad Company fan.
Sorry this one missed the mark for me. The vocals sound too processed.
nope
That is one terrible album cover. That ain't no rose, 😂
No…but as I pointed out the “Midnight Rose” painting makes up part of the heart.
