This should be a great collection. Too bad about that cover. I think Atlantic Records needs a new art director. They had a good staff when I worked there, but it's been 22 years since I left and I have no idea who their graphic designers are.

Fine by me.

I love solos and Simon Kirke is criminally underrated.

His solos were usually short and to the point.

This is the first official live release from the full, original lineup-hard to believe. (Not counting the semi-official 1976 boot from New Mexico that was yanked because of legal reasons).

i didn't say if it was good or bad, i was just pointing out that there is a drum solo on each disc....i don't think, in all my years, i have ever seen 2 drum solos on one album before, ever.

That reminds me – about 15 years ago, Rhino put out some horrible covers.
They looked amateurish with cheesy concepts and awful type treatments. *shudder*

I have this one, Man it was taken off the market in flash which was "Live in Albuquerque 1976" (2006). Really an excellent live album.

Description
Live In Albuquerque 1976 is a live album by hard rock band Bad Company featuring all four original members. The recordings were made by Mick Ralphs, who regularly taped the group’s shows in the ’70s, so the band could use them to finely tune their set and performances. The album was released on Angel Air Records in 2006, 30 years after it was recorded. The band didn’t release an official live album in the 1970s. Mick Ralphs also supplied photos from the ’70s and ’80s for the booklet, taken from his personal archive.

Due to legal objections, Live In Albuquerque 1976 was withdrawn shortly after its release. It is unlikely to ever be released again.

Tracklist
[CD1]
1. Live for the Music
2. Good Lovin' Gone Bad
3. Deal with the Preacher
4. Ready for Love
5. Wild Fire Woman
6. Young Blood
7. Sweet Little Sister
8. Simple Man
9. Shooting Star
10. Seagull

[CD2]
1. Run with the Pack
2. Feel Like Making Love
3. Rock Steady
4. Honey Child
5. Can't Get Enough
6. Bad Company

Bad Company have confirmed the release of a double-length live album featuring the classic lineup of Paul Rodgers, Simon Kirke, Mick Ralphs and Boz Burrell.

It’s the only official live title to feature the original members since Live In Albuquerque was released in 2006, then withdrawn for legal reasons. Bassist Burrell died that year.

Bad Company Live In Concert 1977 & 1979 was recorded at the Summit in Houston, Texas on May 23, 1977, and at the Empire Pool, London – the old name for Wembley Arena – on March 9, 1979. In addition, the record features a cover of Jimi Hendrix’s Hey Joe, taped in Washington in June 1979.

If I am not mistaken, I believe that the Clockwork Angels Tour live album by Rush has three separate drum solos by Neil Peart !!

They're all rather short.

It was Neil's way of pacing himself rather doing his usual 8 minute piece.

It worked for the most part.

Not to offend anyone; my response to first listen is a big "MEH". The 1st album & a greatest hits does me. They were better in the studio. Live, Rodgers was better as a solo artist then he was with Bad Co. imo.

How a combo of Mott & Free ended up this mediocre still blows me away 40 years later!

Hey Geff - I agree with you 100% - Listened to this and got halfway through the second disc and thought, why am I wasting my time

I very much enjoy this live release.

Bad Company were never the most polished band live, nor did they want to be.

I'm thrilled this came out and the version of "Burnin' Sky" starts things off on a very high note.

This isn't a touched-up "live" album, it's the real, raw deal and I dig it.

Totally missed this, what's the verdict? I did see Bad Co in the summer of 1977 at MSG so this does have historical meaning to me.
