Indeed, Jonas. Free was never able to expand on their incredible potential before they broke up - but Bad Co. took full advantage of one of the best vocalists ever in rock - Paul Rodgers.

I agree with that statement about Paul Rodgers. He is amazing and worth seeing whenever he comes around in any form. Interesting bit of trivia about Free's All Right Now. When Free were nearing the end of the recording sessions for their album Fire and Water they needed one more song. Paul Rodgers had learned in the sessions that he would earn more money if he wrote a song, rather than record someone else's composition. He went to a stairwell in the recording studio to try to write a song. 15 mins later he had written All Right Now. Not a bad first song.
I was 13 years old, playing drums in a bar... The 2nd guitar player couldn't quite get the rhythm, though we had played every zeppelin song recorded. I can still see myself sitting on the drum throne trying to guide into the right direction........ Andre the guitar player was Jimmy Page incarnate. He was poor dude living in a complex... He would come up to play at my white boy house -- a loft with enough room... Last time I hooked up with him we were playing Alice in Chains covers --- he on lead, me on vocals and drums...

Bad Co was one of the only Swan Song label bands. Page knew that with Paul Rogers that band would kick ass... He didn't know just how much.
