Run With The Pack

Description
During a rare break from touring, Paul Rodgers, Mick Ralphs, Simon Kirke and Boz Burrell got together in France to record new songs using the Rolling Stones mobile recording studio. Those sessions produced Run With The Pack, a 10-song album that came out in early 1976 and rose to #4 in England and #5 in America, where it sold three million copies alone. Radio stations embraced the title track along with a cover of The Coasters' Young Blood, while Silver, Blue & Gold became one of the band's signature tracks, even though it was never officially released as a single.

The bonus disc that accompanies RUN WITH THE PACK: DELUXE EDITION includes unreleased early mixes for Honey Child and Simple Man, as well as an extended version of the title track. There s also the previously unreleased Let There Be Love, an outtake from the recording sessions. In fact, the acoustic version of Do Right By Your Woman, previously only available as the B-Side of the single release of Run With The Pack, is the only song on the bonus disc that has ever been previously released.

Burnin' Sky

Description
During the summer of 1976, the band returned to France yet again to record 12 songs for what would become Burnin' Sky. They chose Château d'Hérouville as the studio, which is where David Bowie would record Low later that same year. Burnin' Sky was released in March 1977, and broke into the Top 20 in both the U.K. and U.S.

The BURNIN' SKY: DELUXE EDITION bonus disc features unreleased versions of nearly every song on the album, including alternative takes and mixes of Man Needs A Woman and Morning Sun, plus the full version of Too Bad. The session tapes also unearthed Unfinished Story, a song that was completed, but never released.

Yes!

Man, I was told about these and posted here about them at least a year ago.

Things do take time.

I think DanO mentioned Run With the pack on Facebook very recently and I mentioned these as well.

How very ironic...

I'm so glad these are finally coming out, but they missed Smokin' 45 from the Burnin' Sky sessions. I don't know anything about the outtake Unfinished Story.

Yes, "Smokin' 45" should be on there unless it ends up on Desolation Angels which makes little sense.

"Unfinished Story" as far as I know is an incomplete song idea.

As promotion for the Bad Company Deluxe Editions, Rhino has created a new lyric video for the title track of "Burnin' Sky":

Don57 · 01 Feb 2008

I had a day off today so I finally got to listen to both of these. The bonus tracks are excellent , not as good as the bonus tracks on BadCo and Straight Shooter imo , but still excellent. I just hope we don't have to wait another 2 years for Desolation Angels and Rough Diamonds.

Don57 · 01 Feb 2008

I was just listening to Burnin’ Sky today and was wondering about Desolation Angels and Rough Diamonds. Any word if these will be getting the DE treatment in the near future ?
