Bad Company to Release 'Live in London' Album; Title-Track Video Out Now
British rock band Bad Company will release the live album 'Live in London' on Nov. 13, the group announced, with the album's second single — the title track 'Bad Company' — and its official music video released on Oct. 16. The album, issued on blue vinyl, CD and digital formats, captures the band's Oct. 29, 2016 performance at London's O2 Arena in full.
Released for the tenth anniversary of that night, the recording preserves what became founding guitarist Mick Ralphs's final live performance with the band; he suffered a stroke four days after the concert. Captured directly from the soundboard, the set features Paul Rodgers, Ralphs and Simon Kirke performing a career-spanning list including 'Can't Get Enough,' 'Feel Like Makin' Love,' 'Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy,' 'Shooting Star,' 'Ready for Love,' 'Run With The Pack' and 'Burnin' Sky.'
'Both the fans and the band were in great form that night in London. The rapport with the audience was deeply felt, and they sang their hearts out,' Rodgers said, recalling that Ralphs's own song 'Ready for Love' was particularly moving in retrospect. The complete concert is being released for the first time. (GSM, based on reporting by Blabbermouth)
