CD Reviews

Odd Choices for a "Best of" CD - NOT IMPRESSED
S. Riley | Chicopee, MA | 05/09/2010
(2 out of 5 stars)

"This CD should especially have "Silver, Blue & Gold" (which i think is really their best song) as well as "Bad Company" (their namesake song from their first album). For $28.49, this truly is not worth the price. Their Greatest Hits CD BAD COMPANY - 10 FROM 6 is almost as good, and it's only a few bucks used on Amazon (including shipping). I recommend you buy that and their Run with the Pack' CD - used, in 'good' condition (with has Silver, Blue & Gold as well as other pretty songs like 'Love Me Somebody' and 'Simple Man' (not Lynyrd Skynyrd's) and you'll get a much better value. or for $22 new you can get Original Bad Company Anthology *Only if you like the "FREE" songs on this CD will you find this to be a good value."
Decent Rodgers Career Overview for One Disc
Hissyspit | Raeford, NC USA | 07/18/2010
(4 out of 5 stars)

"The point of this CD is to cash in on and celebrate the most-current reunion and revival of Paul Rodgers and Bad Company, and their touring of the U.K.and U.S., by offering an overview of Rodgers career with his biggest two bands, which would include Free, not just Bad Company. Free was much bigger in England than in the United States and most of the Free songs presented here were decent size hit singles there, not so much in America. In fact, in some ways, Free was more successful in the United Kingdom than Bad Company was. For instance, "Movin' On" was never even released as a single in Britain and "Rock and Roll Fantasy was not a hit there, while most Americans have no idea what "My Brother Jake" is, a decent radio hit in the U.K. So to complain about absent Bad Company songs is to miss the point. To complain that this really should be a two-disc set would be more on the mark. I just put together my own Rodgers career overview and it filled up six CDs.



Still, keeping in mind that this is a mostly a Brit thing, for a look at what Rodgers was up to from 1968 through 1978, this does an o.k. job, giving those who want or need to bone up on their "Free awareness" the radio high points. Nice cover graphic, too. As few albums as the original Bad Company put out and as readily available at budget prices they are, you might as well buy all five (pretend 'Rough Diamonds' doesn't exist or download "Electricland." And you really should have all the Free British reissues, because they have a plethora of great bonus tracks and will be out of print (probably) some day."
