Born to Be Bad is the seventh studio album released by George Thorogood. It was released in 1988 on the EMI label. The album peaked at #32 on the Billboard 200, and was on the charts for 24 weeks. The album is unabashedly a party-hearty serving of Chicago blues (a convincing version of Howlin' Wolf' "Highway 49"), rockabilly (a smart revamp of Chuck Berry's "You Can't Catch Me"), '60s R&B (Roy Head's horn-driven "Treat Her Right"), country (Hank Snow's often covered "I'm Movin' On"), and more.
