Bad Company (album)
''Bad Company'' is the eponymous debut album by hard rock band Bad Company.
The album was recorded at Headley Grange with Ronnie Lane's Mobile Studio in November 1973.
The album peaked at #1 on the Billboard's Pop Albums chart (North America). Since then the album has sold in excess of five million copies according to the RIAA.[http://www.riaa.com/gp/database/search_results.asp]
The singles "Can't Get Enough" (which was to feature in an advertisement for Levi's jeans in 1999) and "Movin' On" peaked at #5 and #19 respectively. "Rock Steady", "Bad Company" and "Ready for Love" (the latter originally recorded by BadCo guitarist Mick Ralphs during his tenure with Mott the Hoople) are also "classic rock" radio staples.
In 2006 a limited edition CD of 24K Gold was released. It had taken over a year to find the original master tapes, then the analog masters were put through proprietary A/D converter which adds true "breath of life" to the music. Another remaster was previously released in 1994.
