My 2nd favorite band of all time. I've loved B C. since around 75 when I heard my older brothers 8 track tape in his 70 model nova. Now I'm an old man still loving B C.
That woodchuck said " they devoured Zepplin " i literally almost stopped watching this docu. But I love Paul to much . Clearly that guy got the knee pads out . The old San Francisco slippers .
Fun memories. My first concert ever was a Bad Company show at the LA Forum. It was their self-titled debut album tour, and my buddy and I were around 13 or 14. We were completely blown out of our minds by the whole experience. The crowd, the lights the music, the smoke, no parents, everything. Then, when we thought the show was over, the band steps back out for an encore. Great. But just then, out steps Jimmy Page from one side of the stage, and Robert Plant from the other! The whole place went insane. Since then I've probably attended 500 concerts, and forgotten most of them. But as they say, you never forget your first (;
Awesome seeing/hearing Paul with a Strat, and Mick with a Tele. For some reason I typically think of Mick with an LP. Thanks, folks, all the best, be alive in '25!! 🎉🖖🏼😂🧡🍁🧡🎶✨️🕊
When I first heard them in Liverpool at my cousin's home I thought they were American but once you heard them speak no doubt where the originate. Fantastic band with fantastic songs! Loved Simon's LUDWIG drum sound never to be replicated by his DW kit!
What band !!!They a lot of class and groove,the songs were simple but magnetically rocky-blues-country,intense,elegant,the guys looked great,and Simon+Boz,matched so perfectly together,gettin' a rhythm section,not inferior to those of Purple,Zep,or Sabbath.
I saw them at ZZ Tops First Annual Barn Dance and BBQ in Austin at the UT football stadium in the mid 70s (summer of 74 I think). Jimmy Page showed up to introduce them, they had just signed on to LZs White Swan record label.
I thought almost the exact same thing but my thought was "uuuhhhh, wouldn't go THAT far". I mean c'mon now, BC was great but LZ was MIND BLOWING TRANSCENDENCE ❤️💯‼️
...when we were coming up in rural middle Georgia in the late 70's we all loved Bad Co! Had every album and listened to them daily. They were a excellent blues oriented rock and roll band... pretty straight forward. But.... there was one more band we had all of their albums too and that was led zeppelin. Now if Bad Co was excellent well then led zeppelin were rock and roll Gods!
Love BadCo. No extended drum solos, or bloviated guitar opuses, or Celtic mythical inspirations, or concert films with inane vainglorious diversions. They lingered a little too long (Desolation Angels should have been the last record). But for a British band, they certainly knew what 1970's American teenage males wanted to hear. I believe that if you sat in the back of my 67 Mustang (wherever it may be now) a BadCo song would whisper out of the seat as you settled in. Well, that and probably Tuesday's Gone.
If there is one word that could never apply to all members of Bad Company, that word is under-rated. They were adored. Only a modern loser would use the U word of the victim mentality.
Two off my favourite bands and i saw them live had some thing in common they had great musicians the other thing was they had the best vocalist that was paul Rodgers and steve Marriott humble they could blow your socks off my other two had the same vocalist paul Rodger's free ,steve Marriott small faces if you only listened properly to one off these bands give the others a try may shock you all as good if not better than Led zep Live, and i saw them also,
Isn’t that the way it should be? Six or seven great years and Paul says no more. Nobody really wants to see 70 year olds breaking hips on stage or singers who blew out their pipes two decades ago. It was awesome. Ride off into the sunset. Don’t die in the saddle.
I saw them in the mid 90s in Merrillville Indiana at the Radison Star Theatre.They backed up Ted Nugent.Bad Company had a new frontman.Robert Hart who sounded very much like Paul.They also came out with a great new CD."Company Of Strangers".Which is a great collection of new songs.Down and Dirty.....Company of Strangers....plus many more.That one guy they had.....i think Brian Howe.....just didn't fit their sound.The song"How About That" was okay but Robert fit in better.Then i heard that Paul came back in.
15:40 (Homer Simpson scream). That NY accent took all the smart out of this narrative. Yuccchhh. It's "your love" not "ya love". Play it back. You'll see I'm correct. Because R's exist. Please never show her again.
Millions of hits and devoured Led Zeppelin? That’s total complete and utter bullshit and I love BC and Free. I do agree Paul’s voice is the best rock voice imo. Free were way underrated and they had way more than one good song too by the way.
L z is overrated! Bad company is just pure clean rock. No fancy gyrations or annoying screaming! Paul Rogers blows bob plant out of the water as a lead singer!
When creating a RUclips video, you can set it up as "clickbait" with any words and thumbnail you want. Tell any lies necessary to get your content online. BC was a decent band but seemed more like ok musicians with a karaoke singer. Definitely wasn't in the same league as Led Zeppelin. The comment " they wrote millions of hits." I must have missed 99 percent of those. 5 minutes into the video I dropped out.
over rated band. zepplin clones. i'll take the faces anyday. this is the era of million dollar contracts. most of there lyrics were written for teenagers. money time. as soon as they signed w/swan song you knew the swan song promotion machine was in gear.
This is one band I never cared for at all. I always felt that they were the most overrated, mediocre and just boring band ever. I thought Ralphs did some good stuff in Mott and Boz was great in King Crimson but never thought that Paul Rodgers was half the singer that he was hyped to be and certainly not anywhere near Plant or Jagger as a frontman. It was almost torture watching this documentary and I usually enjoy docs even on artists I don’t like.
Five Finger Death Punch does their version of the song "Bad Company".Kinda sounds okay.For a metal band to cover a great song.......Impressive if you ask me.!

What a great singer Paul Rodgers is.
One of the best bands ever, and one of the biggest influences on me as a guitarist. Also, Boz's bass playing is way underrated.
My 2nd favorite band of all time. I've loved B C. since around 75 when I heard my older brothers 8 track tape in his 70 model nova. Now I'm an old man still loving B C.
Saw then on Don Kirshners' every time... huge influence on me as a musician. Their live performance on TV was beautiful and organic.
Was so very lucky to have known Boz way back in the day before bad company and I would like to call him as a friend

I always thought he played a les paul too!!!!
And supposedly the first Zeppelin album was all done on a Telly??
@scottrock7407 yep. Not sure exactly when he got the Les Paul, I think it was from Joe Walsh .
The TELE has such a great tone !!! A truly UNDERRATED sound for sure !!!🎉
@@MichaelSiniffSounded great with Quo!
Boz was the first bassist in rock,to play the fretless Ampeg longhorn bass,keeping it,very in tune,that rarely can be noticed a little de-tune.
Paul and Mick Ralphs, WOW! One of my favorite groups of all time.
Rock Steady!
Geat band. Long live 70's RNR
long live rock , no big hair , satan vocals , diddlin , up scale ,down scale players , make up , I need it everyday .

Paul Rodgers amazing front man, Free and BC epic 70’s partying soundtrack… girls liked it👍
Saw them in Indy in '76, 77.
Not sure.
They blew me away.
Paul is the quintessential rock vocalist - one of the true super groups!
Bad Company was a good solid band.
There's no vocalist in the large rock universe,who does not like,appreciate,or love,Paul Rodgers,as vocalist and person.
He looks like Bon Scott.
Paul Rogers. The best rock singer out there. No one can touch him.
AGREED 🎉
Ronnie Van Zant’s biggest influence.
True
They devoured Zeppelin? Cmon man let’s not get confused
I thought almost the exact same thing but my thought was "uuuhhhh, wouldn't go THAT far". I mean c'mon now, BC was great but LZ was MIND BLOWING TRANSCENDENCE ❤️💯‼️

Dazed and CONFUSED !! BC was a solid band but please my brother....Devoured ?????
And dazed.
Agree ,even bc would never say that
Love BadCo. No extended drum solos, or bloviated guitar opuses, or Celtic mythical inspirations, or concert films with inane vainglorious diversions. They lingered a little too long (Desolation Angels should have been the last record). But for a British band, they certainly knew what 1970's American teenage males wanted to hear.

They were good.

I heard girls and girls - would jump on stage - in concert.
Never heard that before - from other bands.
23:00 Piers Morgan's son?
I saw them in the mid 90s in Merrillville Indiana at the Radison Star Theatre.They backed up Ted Nugent.Bad Company had a new frontman.Robert Hart who sounded very much like Paul.They also came out with a great new CD."Company Of Strangers".Which is a great collection of new songs.Down and Dirty.....Company of Strangers....plus many more.That one guy they had.....i think Brian Howe.....just didn't fit their sound.The song"How About That" was okay but Robert fit in better.Then i heard that Paul came back in.
Paul Rodgers is one of the best rock singers, but they didn't devour Led Zepplin. I love Bad Co.
i loved ..FREE..!
It's worse than saying delivered, the commentor is talking about Free, not Bad Company. Bad Company came after Free.
Is it true that all four of them boned Nancy Spungen before she lighted onto Sid Vicious?
Paul Rodgers shoulda been the replacement after bon scott died, can you imagine?
And yet . somehow...NOT in the RHoF. What a joke!
15:40 (Homer Simpson scream). That NY accent took all the smart out of this narrative. Yuccchhh. It's "your love" not "ya love". Play it back. You'll see I'm correct. Because R's exist. Please never show her again.

Someone is lost. They devored Zeppelin. Really? Lol
Devour Zep? Afraid not pal, Bad Co is a great band but not on the same level as Zep, not even close
L z is overrated! Bad company is just pure clean rock. No fancy gyrations or annoying screaming! Paul Rogers blows bob plant out of the water as a lead singer!
What's with the rubbish subtitles?

" they wrote millions of hits." I must have missed 99 percent of those. 5 minutes into the video I dropped out.
Yea I agree… I started watching it and overhyped is exactly what the band was and the video is.
We’ll good for you….
over rated band. zepplin clones. i'll take the faces anyday. this is the era of million dollar contracts. most of there lyrics were written for teenagers. money time. as soon as they signed w/swan song you knew the swan song promotion machine was in gear.
No clones! Wake up maan! Bad Company Rocks! Pure talent!
They sucked atBest
Then why are you watching?
I remember I was into rock and in my early teens when I first heard them and I thought they were boring, dull and anything but cool. Mediocre at best
@@jonesy2111 You have an ego problem…seek help.

Great band but I wouldn't say they 'devoured' Led Zep. That's more or less impossible.
Much better than led zep
Devoured 😂😂😂😂😂. Uh no
Was so very lucky to have known Boz way back in the day before bad company and I would like to call him as a friend
