BadCo fans can soon enjoy more than one “Hell of a Night” this year. Hot on the heels of the band’s announcement of its summer tour with Joe Walsh (see our news item here), they also have announced the first-ever official live album to spotlight the original Bad Company line up: Paul Rodgers, Mick Ralphs, Simon Kirke and Boz Burrell. Titled Bad Company: Live In Concert 1977 & 1979, the set features two shows from the group’s prime.

It will be available on April 29 as a double-CD set and digital release with a 2 LP vinyl release to follow later this year. The 30-track package features more than two-and-half hours of unreleased music taken from 24-track tapes in the Bad Company vault. It was recorded on May 23, 1977 at The Summit, Houston, TX and on March 9, 1979 at The Empire Pool, Wembley, London (with one additional track, the rock standard “Hey Joe,” tracked at the Capitol Center in Washington, DC on June 26, 1979.
