'Bring back Bad Company'.....! Rock On! Good luck, fella...

Nah not Russel Brand, the geezer with the westcountry accent and a undeniable amount of pure enthusiasm for anything he does.....fair play to him, can't knock that! P.S. Russel Brand is going out with Kate Moss - fair play to him as well!

The guy in question is Justin Lee-Collins, the annoying twat

Nabbed my copy finally last week after too long waiting for it!


/me strokes his BC vinyl collection

Fave track (first BC track I ever heard): Ladies of Spain, and while we're on the subject of Bad Company, I did a BC mix a while back which is basically nearly entirely composed of tracks off the Book Of The Bad Pt. 2 LP with a few extras, mainly because I hated listening to the tracks without gaps and thought they'd fit well together (they do). Therefore, 45 minutes of baaaaaad classic BC if you're thusly inclined can be found at http://mixset.leeching.totallysucks.co.uk/xen/05_07_31-xen-bc_mix-vbr.mp3

You bastard. You had me going on that one.


Best BC tracks?

Nitrous
Torpedo
Snow Cat
Grunge 3 remix
Night Train

also, the BC remix of Ed Rush & Optical's Sardines is fucking immense. Defo in my top 10 DnB tracks ever.

 

[xen]

Grunge 3 how could I forget that? it's one of my favourite BC tracks, and the remix just takes it to another level of coolness

/me strokes his original pressing of that which he found amazingly on Juno not too long ago

I liked most of the shot down on safari album, hell I bought it on CD (yes, CD, not for Fresh's mix, that was bollocks) - but their older stuff is what made me fall in love with em

This guy fuckin knows it!

I got Shot Down on Safari off eBay for a tenner last week. 6/8 good tracks. The other two are OK. Classic DnB album, if you ask me.

imo it's the last properly decent material Dan Stein (Fresh) wrote before he finally crossed to the dark side of the force (totally jumpup dnb), he's done a few listenable tracks after that but the influence that D Bridge and the others had on him whilst he was in BC really made that crucial difference I feel - same as how Liam Howlett's music changed after he left the Prodigy fold and just produced music entirely on his own. He always produced all of the Prodigy's music, but the influence that Keith Flint, Maxim and Leeroy (plus the other live musicians) just gave his music that rave edge. But fair enough, he wanted to go breakbeat that badly whereas I feel with Fresh it's kinda one of those 'drifts' into jumpup, which is a shame because I always preferred his more techsteppy stuff

ask this question on the Dogs On Acid Forum, they love people like you there.

 

[00000001]

i don't have an account there.
i don't really know dnb history either, it'd be cool if i could be filled in so i won't be so lost when things like this pop up =P

Bad Company was originally Fresh, Vegas, DBridge and Maldini, they were all producers working in duos or solo before (Future Forces and --- I forget).
Then they all hooked up to do The Nine, The Pulse, and some other classics in the late 90s/early 00s, check em out.
As far as I know Vegas and Maldini continued to use the BC name after DBridge and Fresh left a few years back, but many dnb heads refer to 'BC' as the work the four of them did, which was undoubtedly amazing.

And probably wont be happening again.

deadaelus, dont send people to DOA while we've got the chance of saving souls here.thanks.

www.rolldabeats.com is good for checking artists or label names you may have heard about, other than that a search of this forum will turn up plenty o' useful facts mate.
