Some live albums are just souvenirs. This one is a document. Bad Company is releasing Live In London on November 13, on blue vinyl, CD, and digital, and it was recorded on October 29, 2016 at London's O2 Arena. Nobody in that room knew what was coming. Four days later, Mick Ralphs had a stroke. He passed away in June of last year at 81. So this is it. The final show with the founding guitarist, Paul Rodgers, and Simon Kirke all on stage together, and it is finally coming out almost ten years later.
The setlist is a greatest:
hits run: Can't Get Enough, Feel Like Makin' Love, Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy, Shooting Star, Ready For Love, Run With The Pack, Burnin' Sky, Bad Company. They already put out a preview single of Rock 'N' Roll Fantasy from that night with a video, and it sounds like a band that had nothing left to prove.
Get the blue vinyl. Records like this are why we buy blue vinyl.
