Summary: The Original Bad Co.
Comment: This is a great compilation. Paul Rogers has one of the greatest voices in the classic rock era. This offering is packed with essential hits and will leave you singing along the whole time.

Summary: Original Bad Company Anthology
Comment: There's a reason why this is called "Original"; it's the Bad Company with Paul Rodgers as the vocalist. Which means it's the only Bad Company that counts. I mean, it's like Black Sabbath without Ozzie or Van Halen without David Lee, it's just not the same. Call me a purist.
This Anthology just about has it all from the original group, including four new songs. This two disc set has outstanding songs including "Can't Get Enough", "Rock Steady", "Ready For Love", "Bad Company", "Good Lovin' Gone Bad", "Feel Like Makin' Love", "Burnin' Sky", "Rock and Roll Fantasy" & "Tracking Down a Runaway" (a new cut that sounds like it could've been from the era of their debut album). There's some previously unreleased tracks & b-side 45 tracks but nothing very revelatory. The track "Smokin' 45" (previously unreleased) has lyrics by Pete Sinfield who did the same thing for King Crimson & Emerson, Lake and Palmer.
The liner notes are good & has the lyrics to all the songs. The only reason I didn't give this album five stars is because there is too much filler here. I know, that's MY problem.

Summary: Could've been better
Comment: Bad Company as a band certainly deserve a 2-disc compilation, but I'm not sure if the 'Original' lineup does. Believe it or not, but the late-80s lineup without Paul Rodgers had 15 charting singles, more than the 'Original' lineup. I would've preferred one disc with the classic lineup and a second disc with the late-80s lineup.
Anyway, "The 'Original' Bad Company Anthology" is missing a few hits: "Electricland", "Live For The Music" and "Young Blood". The new tracks, are very good, however.

Summary: the best of bad co
Comment: the oringinal bad co anthology is all the casual bad co fan could ever want all the hits, good deep cuts, and some new tracks that aren't half bad. but like the title says this is the "original" bad co anthology so it only covers the oringinal group which wrote the groups first six albums. but odds are that wont bother any but the most hardcore fans. so if its bad co you want and you only want to make one purchase then this is the one for you
