Bad Company was a British rock band founded in 1973, consisting of band members from Free (Paul Rodgers, Simon Kirke), Mott The Hoople (Mick Ralphs) and King Crimson (Boz Burrell), making it one of the early supergroups. The band reformed in 1986 with ex-Ted Nugent vocalist Brian Howe, in place of Rodgers. Throughout the 1990s, the band continued with various musicians with drummer Simon Kirke the only original member. The 2003 line-up of Bad Company includes Mick Ralphs and Simon Kirke along with Dave Colwell (keyboards), Rick Wills (bass guitar), and Robert Hart (vocals).
