Bad Company---Can't Get Enough (1974)

     You don't hear the word, "supergroup" thrown about much anymore, but at one time it was thought to be a hope that if you bring guys from successful groups and put them together that it will automatically produce great music (or even less likely good chemistry...i.e. see Blind Faith). Most put together like that don't last for long for lack of a spark. Which just goes to show that what makes up a  good group is more than just good musicians. There are a few exceptions to the rule, and Bad Company is one of those.

     Lead singer Paul Rodgers and drummer Simon Kirke had just left the band Free, and along with Mott the Hoople guitarist Mick Ralphs and King Crimson bassist Boz Burrell recorded their debut album in 1974. Rodgers gritty vocals and Ralphs blues based licks solidified their sound quickly and it rapidly moved up the charts. "Can't Get Enough" was the groups most popular single, but the album itself, along with it's follow up, "Straight Shooter" could be seen as classic albums of the 70's
