BOOSTER

At the point of their foundation in 1973 "Bad Company" assembled of three main band fragments. Boz Burell on bass, who left "King Crimson" after being unsatisfied with the tricky and complex harmony structure of the compositions by his boss Robert Fripp. Next was guitarist Mick Ralphs, formerly of "Mott the Hoople". The band fronted by the dominant singer Ian Hunter, who pushed the band into the new Glam-Rock trend. Mick disliked the new direction, so he left as well only to team up with Simon Kirk and Paul Rodgers from the famous British band "Free", who he met several times when "Mott the Hoople" opened for "Free". "Free" was -and still is- nowadays well known for their guitar player Paul Kossoff with his irreproducible soulful finger vibrato, his clever chord-inversions and his pure earthy sound.
