Deluxe Edition 180g Vinyl Double LP Includes Previously Unreleased Material!

Original Album Remastered from Original Production Masters! Half Speed Mastered at Abbey Road Studios!

Straight Shooter, the second studio album by Bad Company, was released in 1975. The album proved to be successful in America making the top ten on the Billboard 200 and certified gold by the RIAA only a month after its release. The album produced two singles, "Good Lovin' Gone Bad" and "Feel Like Makin' Love," both of which charted on the Hot 100.

One of the most acclaimed bands of the classic rock era, England's Bad Company has put its indelible stamp on rock 'n' roll with a straight-ahead, no-frills musical approach that has resulted in the creation of some of the most timeless rock anthems ever. Led by the incomparable singer and songwriter Paul Rodgers, arguably the finest singer in rock 'n ' roll and a huge songwriting talent.

Formed in 1973, Bad Company came to life when Rodgers was looking to start anew after the disintegration of his legendary band Free. His powerhouse vocals and songwriting were a main ingredient during Free's impressive five-year run; a period of time that saw the release of seven extremely influential albums that featured Free's minimalist blues-rock approach. Included among Free's dynamic body of work is the 1970 smash, "All Right Now," one of the most recognizable rock anthems ever recorded. Lyrics and melody by Rodgers. He was Free's main songwriter.
