In this episode of Brad & Lex, We're actually in good company....This 1974 banger lead by Paul Rodgers creates the "oooh factor" for Lex and Brad has no shame in his game admitting he was caught off guard and praising the structure and guitar work exhibiting his signature "side to side sway" as his counterpart lets the jam give her a "drug bop".

Bad Company are always overlooked when it comes to best rock bands of the 70's lists. Never regarded for inclusion into the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame, and just generally forgotten. But whenever they make the reaction rounds, people are always surprised by the quality of the music, and of course by the powerhouse vocals of Paul Rodgers. They were a really good band who deserve more recognition.

Guys, Bad Company were one of the UK's finest rock/blues bands of the seventies, with Paul Rogers on lead vocals. They evolved from anther band called 'Free' who also rocked a whole generation with great hits like 'Alright Now' and 'Wishing Well' and 'My Brother Jake'. Bad Company's hits were 'Feel Like Making Love'' which you've just reacted so beautifully to, and the title track of their album 'Bad Company' which was another fantastic track. Hope you give that one a listen to soon as well. Thanks guys!

BTW this first Bad Co album has a bunch of great songs on it, and it was one of the first albums put out by Zeppelin's new label Swan Song (Pretty Thing's Silk Torpedo might have been the first).
