Bad Co. Legacy

Twenty million albums in the US, and the people who played them.

Bad Company formed in London in 1973 out of Free, Mott the Hoople and King Crimson, and was managed by Led Zeppelin's Peter Grant until 1982. Their first three albums all reached the top five in the UK and the US, and Bad Company, Can't Get Enough, Feel Like Makin' Love, Shooting Star, Burnin' Sky and Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy remain classic rock staples. They have sold 20 million certified albums in the US and 40 million worldwide, and were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame this year.

Bad Co. Legacy is led by two men who were in the band for years. Robert Hart was lead singer through its classic rock era, joining in 1992 at the invitation of Mick Ralphs and Simon Kirke as the third vocalist after Paul Rodgers and Brian Howe, and singing on Company of Strangers, Stories Told and Untold and three live albums. Guitarist Dave "Bucket" Colwell spent twelve years in the band, joining in 1990 at Ralphs' request, and also recorded with Humble Pie and with Paul Rodgers.
