 MY FAVORITE BAD COMPANY RECORDING November 28, 2004
13 out of 23 found this review helpful
This recording holds a special place in my heart. As a teenager, I remember spending nights at the beach with my girlfriend and in the morning we would watch the sun come up over our heads from a sleeping bag in the sand. And BURNIN' SKY was always on continuous play in the cassette deck of my car. Ahhhh... The crashing of the waves, the cry of the gulls, a brunette by my side, and BAD COMPANY blasting out of the back of my '66 Mustang. THE SKY IS BURNIN', indeed. Try getting away with that on the beaches of Southern California in this day and age. The memories are PRICELESS. BEAT THAT MASTERCARD!!
I love the first BAD COMPANY and of course, STRAIGHT SHOOTER, but for some reason this tape was always playing in my car at the beach. I think my girlfriend liked this one the best. I know I did.
DON'T PASS IT UP. I HAVEN'T OWNED THIS SINCE THE 70'S. THE MAGNETIC PARTICLES FELL OFF MY CASSETTE A LONG TIME AGO. I'M BUYING IT NOW. CAN YOU GUESS WHY?

Here's where they got real formulaic.The title track is the only real standout and since it is not available on 10 From 6 I had to get it.Sorry, but this one is strictly for the dedicated fan.
Great voice, great mood, great album. August 5, 1999

This is the album that got ignored when they made a compilation of the early Bad Co's best work, so why did it get ignored when it's so good. The title track alone is reason enough to buy this album as it showcases the best aspects of the band and especially Paul Rogers' voice. Knapsack is the only departure from a soul filled album that makes a classic rock fans mouth salivate and drool profusely, and thats only because its a bit of a lark about put in to show the band still had a sense of humour. All Bad Co fans should have it in their collection and its worth a listen for anyone else who appreciates classy rock music.
BACK TO THEIR ROOTS RHYTHM & BLUES ROCK & ROLL/SOUL January 28, 2002

If you liked Paul Rodgers first band FREE, then there's more than enough blues based simple rock & roll on BURNING SKY to satisfy. In fact the song "Like Water" was originally composed by Paul Rodgers band PEACE after the first break-up of FREE. You can find that version of "Like Water" on the UK only box set "FREE - Songs Of Yesterday". If you only like BAD COMPANY's radio singles like "Can't Get Enough" and "Feel Like Makin' Love", then you'll like the song "Burning Sky", but you may not like this entire CD as well as you would like their albums BAD CO. & STRAIGHT SHOOTER. I myself, think this is one of the best albums BAD COMPANY ever did. It contains songs in a simpler blues style and is overall a more mellow listening experience than are their other albums.

Bad Co.'s fourth release finds the band becoming far more mature as well as more talented. (A shame that they seemed to go downhill after this high water mark.) This cd scans the spectrum of American influenced music, from the 50's sound (Everything I Need), to Soul (Peace Of Mind), to Jazz and Blues (Master Of Ceremony), to Pop (Heartbeat), as well as Bad Co.'s forte, straight shooting, hard driving Rock 'n' Roll (Too Bad, Man Needs Woman, Leaving You). A surprise is the Monty Python sounding "Knapsack", which is inconsequential to the cd, but makes for a unique intro to "Everything". Deserving of 5 stars if only I hadn't heard the title track a zillion times on the radio (I hate when that happens).
