That whole Eagles/Altmans/Doobies machine and all the collaborations it spawned was one of the best things to happen to American rock, period

If you like Free, Bad Company and Paul Rogers vocals in particular (which I do) I think you'll really enjoy this.

It's from his first solo album and I gus you could say that it's his 'Stairway To Heaven'.

In my opinion It's Paul Rogers singing at his very best.

Enjoy

Not my fave song of his but got to agree one of the best singers out there,seen him live
I never get bored of Bad Co & Free...i loved the solo stuff he did like The Law Muddy Water Blues Tribute.

And of course the Firm with Jimmy Page

Cool Artwork Ivor

The Firm seemed ahead of there time but this song rocks, and didnt the do a sountrack to a Charles Bronson movie? I can remember the name?

It was a struggle to look this one up Drew,when i type in Charles Bronson a load of pages come up about a notourious UK Prisoner also called Charles Bronson.

Ir was Death Wish 3

1985 i do not remeber the music so i may try to look this one up to watch.

Ahh yes death wish 3 that has the firm doing the soundtrack , but the movie is average at best,,

I never knew there was a notorious U.K prisoner name d Charles Bronson.

He did one movie called then came Bronson, in his early years he always played a tough rugged guy,and always saved the girl in the end

And it was Page that did the soundtrack not the Firm

I really enjoyed the film "Bronson". Fantastically acted by Tom Hardy. Really makes you think about the prison system and how it handles people like him. I highly recommend it.

Anyone remember John Sykes? Another unsung British axe god.

He had a stint with Whitesnake on the '1987' album which in my opinion was their best by far!!!!

For whatever reason he fell out with David Coverdale and formed Blue Murder. For a debut album I think he did a brilliant job.

Typical naff 80's video so just close your eyes, turn it up to eleven and (hopefully) enjoy.

Well that all went wrong as I've put a link in to Whitesnake doing 'Still Of The Night'

Here's Blue Murder

Jon · Post by **Jon** » Tue Jul 17, 12 11:32 pm

Well I just got in from watching vintage trouble...brilliant gig

a bit more bluesy soul than some of the hair metal in this thread but well worth seeing if you love live music

He was like a breath of fresh air when he took over the 'Robbo' slot in Thin Lizzy, esp after Snowy White had had his turn

Still remember being blown away by them playing 'Cold Sweat' on the late nite version of Tiswas; 'OTT'. So much heavier than anything they'd done for some time!

Also saw him in his Tygers Of Pan Tang days - one of the NWOBHM oldies

But when he took over (or tried to) Phil's place in Lizzy in the late 90's, or early '00s, he went a bit too 'metal' for my and most people's liking, so Scott Gorham pulled the plug on that line up. Havent heard much abiut him since
