An album of incredible intensity from the most straightforward English rockers of the 70s.

Bad Company brought back a stripped down, no-frills approach to blues-based rock 'n' roll and their second studio album, Straight Shooter was certified gold a month after its 1975 release reaching No. 3 on the Billboard charts. The album spawned a handful of FM radio staples and Top 40 hits starting with "Feel Like Makin' Love" (named by VH1 as the 78th best hard rock song of all time), "Good Lovin' Gone Bad," "Deal With The Preacher" and the wistful "Shooting Star" revealed a softer side to the band's usual hard rock dynamic. The British supergroup features Free bandmates, Paul Rodgers on vocals and rhythym guitar and drummer Simon Kirke, King Crimson's, Boz Burrell on bass and guitarist Mick Ralphs from Mott the Hoople. By this album's release Paul Rodgers was firmly established as one of the premiere rock vocalists of the '70s. Straight Shooter refined Bad Company's irresistibly commercial melodic hard rock into perfectly consumable bite-size chunks. The album's classic art work was designed by Hipgnosis.

If you've already purchased the Bad Co. debut on AF, you owe it to yourself to get this one as well. Gorgeous job. Sonics better than one could expect.


Superb!!

AF has hit one right out of the park with the release of Straight Shooter, to my ears this classic title sounds phenomenal! Steve Hoffman has done a great mastering job, & there are no signs of any QC issues that plagued some of AF's earlier releases. The soundstage is excellent, the mid range fantastic & overall I rate this release a solid 9.5/10. Essential for BC fans.
