PAUL RODGERS Interviewed On Palm Springs' 93.7 KCLB ROCKS

July 21, 2010

On July 14, Tyler Russell, the night DJ at 93.7 KCLB Rocks in Palm Springs, California, conducted an interview with legendary vocalist Paul Rodgers (FREE, BAD COMPANY, THE FIRM, QUEEN + PAUL RODGERS and solo). You can now listen to the chat using the audio player below.

The original, founding members of BAD COMPANYPaul Rodgers, Mick Ralphs and Simon Kirke — kicked off a North American tour on July 16. BAD COMPANY has also partnered exclusively with Abbey Road Live to record and sell live concert CDs onsite at each venue throughout the tour.

Having recently completed its first U.K. tour in over three decades — a sold-out run culminating with a sold-out show at Wembley — BAD COMPANY's concerts across the pond were star-studded affairs, attracting the likes of Sting, Robert Plant, Tony Iommi and former bandmate from THE FIRM, Jimmy Page, who proclaimed, "Paul Rodgers has been, and still is by far, one of the finest talents of our musical genre…absolutely brilliant."

"Our last show, at Wembley, was unreal, truly amazing," said Rodgers. "I can't remember a BAD COMPANY gig when everything from sound, lights, fans, music to musicians all peaked at the same show. That has left us all naturally high and primed to play more shows. The upcoming set list will be hit heavy with a few surprises. We have hit our stride."

In March, Warner Music released "The Very Best Of Free And Bad Company Featuring Paul Rodgers". The set debuted on the chart at No. 10 and became BAD COMPANY's first Top 10 U.K. chart appearance in over 30 years, and FREE's first since a "best-of" set released in 1991, remaining on the charts for several weeks. The album has since been certified gold in the U.K. for sales in excess of 100,000 copies.
