Joe Elliott & Phil Collen to Appear on Star-Studded Tribute Album to Bad Company

Posted on by James Janocha

Joe Elliott and Phil Collen are proud to be part of CAN’T GET ENOUGH — the first-ever official Bad Company tribute album, honoring one of rock’s most iconic bands as they celebrate their long-overdue induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and 50+ year career.

Pre-order & Pre-save album on limited-edition silver colored vinyl, CD and all digital formats and special merch bundles HERE

Their contribution is a powerful and unexpected reinterpretation of “Seagull”, featuring none other than Bad Company legends Paul Rodgers and Simon Kirke. Their version of “Seagull” is unlike anything fans might expect, it’s a standout moment on a project full of surprises.

“I’ve loved Bad Company since the very beginning — a phenomenal combination of two of my favourite bands, Free & Mott The Hoople, what’s not to love?! What a privilege it is for myself & Phil to cover one of my favourite Bad Co songs WITH Paul & Simon! Wow!” – Joe Elliott

RIP Ozzy: A Message From Joe

Posted on by James Janocha

“Kinda lost for words here… we toured with Ozzy in 1981 & he, the band & Sharon were SO supportive… he always had time for a chat, took us under his wing & showed us how & how not to party… & played us the 2nd album months before it came out… he was funny, charming & I for one am eternally grateful to have had the chance to spend precious time with him over the years… all my love to Sharon & the kids… God bless you Ozzy x” – Joe
