Bad Company 10 from 6 is one of the best records of all time.

^I still have the original vinyl purchased in 1975 as the debut album to initiate the first decent stereo equipment I ever owned, a Marantz receiver.

Party time. Excellent.

Damn... I hate when that happens...

I wanted to watch it to see if it was their "anthology tour" on video. Does it have the 4 original members?

PR was pretty damned good alongside Jimi Page in the Firm, too. Only a couple albums, but I got to see them play in Seattle. We had great seats and scored a free bottle of Cuervo Gold for three guys to share.

Nice way to spend an evening.

Saw Paul Rodgers and Queen at the Center a couple of years back. I knew he couldn't replace Freddie but damn that was a great show.

And yes, Bad Co. is a great band. One of my wife's favorites.

I guess I gotta be the turd in the punch bowl. Despise his voice and completely sick of every BC song. Him playing with Queen is an abomination.

Silver Blue and Gold is ok, though.

#11...He's not a replacement for Freddie Mercury.

There's nothing wrong with that song.

Or this one...

If Queen wanted that they wouldn't have called themselves Queen w/ Paul Rodgers. What was the band supposed to do with themselves? They're one of the most prolific bands out there. Just hang it up and never make any more music? If Queen wanted to get a replacement (for which there is none!) for Freddie then I'm positive they would've grabbed someone like

Mika

or

Gerry McGhee

Both would be solid and fit like a glove. Brian May obviously didn't want that. Paul Rodgers is a wandering soul with his musical career. While I feel Bad Company was his home, Free before them and The Firm proved he could fit with a "super group" and hold his own.

Don't go into the collaboration with a preconceived mindset that it's Queen, a Freddie replacement but rather its something something different. A new direction or something that Queen wanted to share with their fans. Queen can't help if their sound is so unmistakable.
