68 here. I knew people in the stage lighting business and Boz Murrell stayed at their house while on tour in Florida? Very cool guy. Even got to jam with him a bit?
I repeat this everytime I watch Bad Company and Paul Rodgers...How in the lord is Bad Company/Rodgers not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame??? Screw the Hall...
Paul Rodgers is a force of nature, possibly the greatest pure rock vocalist of all time. Mick Ralphs was always a very underrated guitarist, and this classic number proves that he is a phenomenal songwriter. Overall one of the truly great bands of the good old seventies!
Paul is and was one of the best. But The greatest? Haha Robert Plant, John Fogerty ( both opened the door for him) Glenn Hughes, Dio, Sammy Hagar, i mean...c'mon. Lucky and deservedly enough he is to be among them
@@Projects5309 hey, I have enjoyed Bad CO, since the debut album came out..saw the tour supporting it with Ted Nugent opening up in Albuquerque NM in 1975, great band....
When I was 15 yrs old i saw Bad Company in Mobile Alabama 1976. It was my first concert and it changed my life forever. That's the only way I know to describe it.
Agreed. 👈 A Les Paul through a Marshall. Just as God intended. 🤘But seriously, he was a foundational Rock guitarist in the Classic Rock Era. Never heard him record or perform a bad note in his prime. Cheers 🍻
I seen mick Ralph's when he was with mott the Hoople in glasgow in 19 73 Queen were the support group then seen mick with bad co and Paul went onto front queen
"Best Front Man"? Debatable......Roger Daltrey is right there among others, that being said Paul still sounds good today while many aged rock vocalists have lost a lot of range including Daltrey.
@@ianclarke1852 My favorite is Daltrey.......fantastic 5 octive range (used to anyway) the mic twirling/hurling and marching in place was kind of unique too.
That may be the official lyrics printed by Bad Company, but clearly Paul doesn't say 'Ain't no way that I'm gonna answer it'. He says in fact, and you can verify multiple places, including RUclips, 'Ain't no way I'm gonna answer that'. Check it out.
I think there's no better vocalist than Paul Rodgers why this band is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame absolute nonsense. This band is what rock and roll is all about their music🎸🎤☝👍
@@TessasDaddy7132 well ritchie blackmor, jimmy page, heart, freddy from queen, john cougar all say paul is th best. rob could never sing the blues like on tons of sobs or have the gruffness like on this song. or the thick rich voice on morning sun. rodgers voice is way thicker, more pleasant. dan mccaferty blows away rob. lets see rob singing miss missery. hed sound like brian johnson after a year or 2
Now this is classic rock. At. It's best man back in the day we we would party too bad company's music it all the other classic rock music as well bad company of one big yet after the other Good lovin gone this particular song takes me back in time back with my life was simple and my body did not have a dimple but that's all changed now and life does change fond memories of this song rock on bad company 🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶🎵🎶🎵🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵👍✌️👍✌️✌️✌️👍✌️👍
Rogers is one of the best singer's i ever heard. He doesn't just read the words, he feels it & belts it out. Few do that. Or can do that. Plus the attitude, great stuff.
It is quite evident to me how much of an influence Paul Rodgers had on Bon Scott. The posturing, the phrasing, the tight pants: everything. Bon was very smart to watch him perform.
Luv it ..luv it .. luv...wish I cud go bk in time to 1774...and be around 15 ...16...Wud b right the front .This looks wild ...great voice great sound great band and luv the style then....Now where's that time machine ?? Melanie 32 ❤️ 🌈
Their name is BAD COMPANY for a reason . . . they tore up the charts and our hearts . . . to one of the greatest bands ever . . . BAD COMPANY ROCK ON BROTHERS . . . ROCK ON
I didnt know Jimmy Page sang for Bad Company! In reality Paul Rodgers is IMHO the best rock singer that ever lived hands down. Mick Ralphs is way underrated on guitar. Rock n roll from the1970s is one of the greatest things god has given us.
Even though I like Paul but I believe Rob Halford of Judas Priest beats him in the vocals column.I’ve seen both of them in concerts and Rob totally blows Paul out of the water.
@@TessasDaddy7132 I too have seen them both several times. I think they are 2 different voices just like Robert Planet is different voice but still very good. In the end, it's Paul's voice I rate as the very finest in Rock n Roll.
I had the privilege of seeing Bad Co, in Calvert county Maryland a few years back and I tell you what, they blew my mind, they sounded great, just like the record's, I know, I am a musician.
This brings back memories. I saw Bad Company in 1974 at the Cape Cod Colliseum. Dave Mason and Livingston Taylor also played that night. The Good Old Days.
Glad I saw these guys a few years later in high school. Rodgers was a fucking killer singer. So many kickass bands in the '70's. Concerts like those ate gone forever.
Happy Birthday Paul Rodgers born on December 17, 1949. He is an English-Canadian singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. In the 1960's and 1970's, he was vocalist of Free and Bad Company. - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Rodgers
67 years old and here in November 2024. Rock on!!!
63 here since Nov 2024 and I've not grown up yet. Still rockin
60 here! Rocking in 2024!
68 here. I knew people in the stage lighting business and Boz Murrell stayed at their house while on tour in Florida? Very cool guy. Even got to jam with him a bit?
I repeat this everytime I watch Bad Company and Paul Rodgers...How in the lord is Bad Company/Rodgers not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame??? Screw the Hall...
I agree with you, and the same can be said for a ton of other bands. Being located in a shithole city like Cleveland only adds to the frustration.
@@edwoll The city has gotten a lot better w/ all the redevelopment. Also cleveland is the birthplace of R n' R.
Who cares we all know how good Bad Co & Rodgers voice is the Hall of Fame is a bloody joke🙄
They're in line with Grand Funk Railroad
The Beastie Boys have been in the R&R HOF for years,but yet no Paul Rogers..What a joke!
Paul Rodgers is a force of nature, possibly the greatest pure rock vocalist of all time.
Mick Ralphs was always a very underrated guitarist, and this classic number proves that he is a phenomenal songwriter. Overall one of the truly great bands of the good old seventies!
U got that right!!!!!
I saw them open for Led Zep and Mick Ralphs came out and played a song with them, SwanSong Superstars
True Story...and
Three Dog Night
Couldn't have said it any better. Great players all around. As big as they were I kind of feel that they were still underrated.
Paul is and was one of the best. But The greatest? Haha
Robert Plant, John Fogerty ( both opened the door for him) Glenn Hughes, Dio, Sammy Hagar,
i mean...c'mon.
Lucky and deservedly enough he is to be among them
Watching in 2024.....50 FKN years of this song....YEAH BABY!!!
Unlike many Classic videos, this was actually live! Luckily, they had Paul's voice dialed up nicely, front row center 🎤🎵 📢
Vocal is. Not sure about rest.
Listen to the guitar solo section...there's a rhythm guitar behind the solo... everybody did the fake shows...
@@babydaddy1930 Music is pre-recorded, Paul is live.
@@Projects5309 hey, I have enjoyed Bad CO, since the debut album came out..saw the tour supporting it with Ted Nugent opening up in Albuquerque NM in 1975, great band....
@@babydaddy1930 Awesome 👍 Wish we had a Time Machine!
I'm a diehard southern Rock guy but i gotta say this band was 2nd to none
God I so hate the south🇺🇲
@@DavidBroadley-tw7ksGood, stay the fuck away!
Rodgers is one of the greatest lead singers of all the times of rock roll history!
Völlig richtig Carlos. Leider wird Bad Company im öffentlich rechtlichen Rundfunk viel zu wenig gespielt. Zumindest in Österreich.
Agreed
Easily
When I was 15 yrs old i saw Bad Company in Mobile Alabama 1976. It was my first concert and it changed my life forever. That's the only way I know to describe it.
You should be very grateful. My first concert was nazareth and April wine. Nothing real spectacular.
@timray7066 Its all good brother. I'm sure you've seen many great shows since then. Thanks for the positive comment. Rock on !
This is some Rock and Roll here!
This is truly fantastic. Nothing fancy, no big set up or light show, just 4 guys on a tiny stage rocking out! So simple then, no BS.
Yep.Awesome.
Totally agree
Yes yes
That's Right 💯🤘
Well put !
simon kirke is so bad ass.
Paul Rodgers is the best because he sings what he feels better then any rock singer bad co.should of been in the hall of Fame long ago.
Mick Ralphs was a big influence on me as a guitar player. Such amazing tone and tasteful solos.
Agreed. 👈 A Les Paul through a Marshall. Just as God intended. 🤘But seriously, he was a foundational Rock guitarist in the Classic Rock Era. Never heard him record or perform a bad note in his prime. Cheers 🍻

Brilliant Rock n Roll! Blues Rock Riffs by Ralph’s who’s completely forgotten now but not by me.
Bad Company Rocks!
Mick Ralph's plays a lot like Paul Kossoff, the same crying tone.
Should be in the rock n roll hall of fame period!!
Dosnt matter we know who they are look at the filmstars that never got oscars
A voice like no other, love him❤️❤️
Absolutely amazing. Nothing will ever come close to this music now or in the future.
The best front man ever...
This is true
I don’t think he’s the best front man ever but he is up there though.I think Rob Halford of Judas Priest is the best.
"Best Front Man"?
Debatable......Roger Daltrey is right there among others, that being said Paul still sounds good today while many aged rock vocalists have lost a lot of range including Daltrey.
@@motorcitymanman7711 We would probably be better saying 'favourite front man'. The good news for us is theres a lot of great lead singers.
@@ianclarke1852
My favorite is Daltrey.......fantastic 5 octive range (used to anyway) the mic twirling/hurling and marching in place was kind of unique too.
The best voice to ever grace ROCK music no exceptions
I saw these guys warm up for Led Zeppelin in 75, great memories of a great time in my life.
Led zep shud be warming for bad co 😂😊
@@DavidBroadley-tw7ks Paul Rodgers should of been Zeppelins lead vocals. Love Free, Bad Co, and the Firm. Saw the firm first row in Oakland Ca. 🤘
That may be the official lyrics printed by Bad Company, but clearly Paul doesn't say 'Ain't no way that I'm gonna answer it'. He says in fact, and you can verify multiple places, including RUclips, 'Ain't no way I'm gonna answer that'. Check it out.
The best voice in the history of rock music.
A bold claim, but, it’s completely peerless.
Even though I like Paul I think Rob Halford of Judas Priest blows him out of the water.
Marriott
The quintessential rock vocalist Mr Paul Rodgers
Paul was so hot here..loved his longer hair & smooth moves. His voice is & was so amazing. These guys Rock!! 🙂🙂☮☮✌✌💕💕
Absolutely!!! He is amazing!! Brilliant!!
I love and miss those long haired, bell bottomed 70’s guys!
I think there's no better vocalist than Paul Rodgers why this band is not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame absolute nonsense. This band is what rock and roll is all about their music🎸🎤☝👍

One of if not the best voices in Rock. The hole Band is epic. As good as it get's. 🤟😎
Now this is classic rock. At.

What a blistering rhythm sections, Simon and Raymond are exquisite!!
Its why we love Classic Rock
Great song back in the day when Mick could play.
When you sound this good live…….nuff said.
Except it wasn't live...listen to the guitar solo section there's a rhythm guitar part in there...and Paul's not playing his.
Rogers is one of the best singer's i ever heard. He doesn't just read the words, he feels it & belts it out. Few do that. Or can do that. Plus the attitude, great stuff.
The finest and purest distillate of Rock and Roll!
I've seen Bad Company 4 imes in recent years and they never play this song.
I know don't know why it's not a long song and it's a absoulate humdinger
Every time I hear bad company I think of u kenny 1976 lakeland florida
Rock n roll hall of fame take heed "the great bad company"
Now this is Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Material!!!
This song has held up perfectly! One of my favs! :)
It is quite evident to me how much of an influence Paul Rodgers had on Bon Scott.
The posturing, the phrasing, the tight pants: everything.
Bon was very smart to watch him perform.
You can also recognize a lot of influence from Paul in guys like David Coverdale or Chris Cornell.
YES CLASSIC ROCK!!!! LOVE IT !!!!THE BEST 🥰
Paul Rodgers=THE VOICE!!!!!!!!!
Luv it ..luv it .. luv...wish I cud go bk in time to 1774...and be around 15 ...16...Wud b right the front .This looks wild ...great voice great sound great band and luv the style then....Now where's that time machine ?? Melanie 32 ❤️ 🌈
Bad Co...The best Rock Band all time....
Their name is
BAD COMPANY
for a reason . . .
they tore up the
charts and our
hearts . . . to one
of the greatest bands ever . . .
BAD COMPANY
ROCK ON
BROTHERS . . .
ROCK ON
easily one of the greatest bands ever
I didnt know Jimmy Page sang for Bad Company! In reality Paul Rodgers is IMHO the best rock singer that ever lived hands down. Mick Ralphs is way underrated on guitar. Rock n roll from the1970s is one of the greatest things god has given us.
Yep, we were truly blessed back then. 70’s!!
The Forum in LA in 1977 Jimmy Page came out and played a set with them absolutely awesome. And Jimmy Page's label swan song sign these guys
Even though I like Paul but I believe Rob Halford of Judas Priest beats him in the vocals column.I’ve seen both of them in concerts and Rob totally blows Paul out of the water.
@@TessasDaddy7132 I too have seen them both several times. I think they are 2 different voices just like Robert Planet is different voice but still very good.

R&s Amen to that
Best BAD CO song 🎶 and that says a lot . As they have many many hits 🎶
Go s right for the jugular great track
Great Rock and Roll singer! Great Band
Paul Rodgers and Rod Stewart were my favourites of this era
Dannnng! His voice!! He musta grown up on all the black American soul singers. His voice really, is special, man.
Chuck, Rodgers, Roger, Paul, Dan, Rory,Fogerty, Frank, Randy, Joe, Gregg. PERIOD.
Alice C, Stevie W., Govt. mule
Brings back memories.
This song blows me away!!
Hit that dance floor
Nobody could handle a fretless bass the way Boz did 'cept maybe Rick Danko..
What more can you say about Paul Rodgers? One of the best ever, and Mick Ralphs? Unsung hero of two great bands-Mott the Hoople and Bad Company…
Rodgers is a bad ass!! Love bad co!!
saw then several times in the 70's at the Forum in LA, saw them years later at the Greek, fantastic every time.
I saw them at least 3 times and never payed more than £2:50. That’s why I won’t go to gigs in huge barns today 😁
Best vocalist in rock, bad!!!!
Paul Rodgers is one of my alltime faves....going back to FREE Days......Luv HIM LUV BADCO,,,,,Rock Forever!!!!!
Nice to find the original lineup on RUclips; saw these guys in Phoenix around the same time and they LIT IT UP!
Raw omg I love it 😍
I had the privilege of seeing Bad Co, in Calvert county Maryland a few years back and I tell you what, they blew my mind, they sounded great, just like the record's, I know, I am a musician.
Mick Ralphs has been one of my biggest guitar playing influences. He and Ritchie Blackmore and Angus Young. I grew up in the 70's.
Bad Co. First piece of vinyl. Thanks for the video from 74 👍
❤🤘🏼🙌
The hall of fame doesn't make rock stars, rock stars make the hall of fame.
Lord, that is one fine voice and body...! 😍
Paul rodgers always live no bullshit fantastic the best singer ever
By far the best song Bad Company they ever did! Along with “Movin On!”. That’s my opinion and I’m entitled to it! Dean Jay Gross.
The Voice it's time to but him in the Rock & Roll hall of Fame
Best looking guy, best band
BEST DAMN SINGER SONGWRITER SHOWMAN GOD COULD EVER CREATE!! PAUL RODGERS I ADORE U NOW 4 OVER 40 YEARS. U SPEAK ROCK & ROLL TRUTHS!!🥰😘☺️🤗😇😍🤩💋💋😎
Saw them at Red Rocks Amphitheater in 20.18....AMAZING!!
Damn...that was some good shit. Paul Rodgers has a gifted voice.
Btw, thank you for posting this awesome performance and recording.
Yah dope head
Great sound. Always love Bad Co.
His move.......his voice.....!!!!!
Just over 3 mins this gem frees little bit off love is under 3 mins that's a beauty as well🤘🎤🎸🎸🥁💥👏👏👏👏
Saw them about 1976. Quintessential 70s hard rock.
Paul and Co. "Live" is unmatched ...even today
You should check out Rob Halford of Judas Priest before you say that.
That generation born 1943-1951.. Great song writers.
Who in the world would put a thumbs down for this??????? That's hilarious...
Watching this one again..Mick Ralphs is looking so very fine here! Luv his great guitar playing & sexy moves 🙂🙂💕💕
Wat a belter
Paul Rodgers is one of the best rock signers ever.
This brings back memories. I saw Bad Company in 1974 at the Cape Cod Colliseum. Dave Mason and Livingston Taylor also played that night. The Good Old Days.
The BEST. To bad the video cut short
2023 and this song is still bad ass 😁😁
No estamos en 2023, estamos en 1888...
I was 14 years old at the time it came out. Shit still sounds fresh!
🤬💩
Yeah I’m thinking it’s a Bad Company binging day😂
Wat a banger
This here is one of the best Front man in Rock history. Why isn't he in the HOF?
Holy. Fucking. Shit.
Killer Jam!!!
Glad I saw these guys a few years later in high school. Rodgers was a fucking killer singer. So many kickass bands in the '70's. Concerts like those ate gone forever.
2 mins 40 secs of A , D and G and Ralfs fkn hammers it. Sweet.

Bet this band had a Big influence on Bon Scott and AC/DC!
Like this song but just found out he lives in Vancouver now.
Before the long pause at the beginning I thought this was just a video with the recorded version layered on top.
Start of the song is missing.
Paul sounds like Ian Lloyd from the stories
