NEW YORK, NY (September 18, 2026) Iconic rock band Bad Company will release Live in London on November 13, 2026, on blue-colored vinyl, CD, and digital formats. Arriving in celebration of the 10th anniversary of the band’s October 29, 2016 performance at London’s O2 Arena, the previously unreleased album captures a remarkable night in the band’s history and stands as a tribute to founding guitarist Mick Ralphs, whose appearance that evening would be his final live performance with Bad Company.
The album is available to pre-order beginning today, alongside the release of “Rock ’n’ Roll Fantasy (Live: O2 Arena, London – October 29, 2016)” and its accompanying official music video.
Captured directly from the soundboard, this historic recording finds Paul Rodgers, Mick Ralphs, and Simon Kirkedelivering a career-spanning set drawn from one of rock’s most enduring catalogs. The performance includes classics such as “Can’t Get Enough,” “Feel Like Makin’ Love,” “Rock ’n’ Roll Fantasy,” “Shooting Star,” “Ready for Love,” “Run With the Pack,” “Burnin’ Sky” and “Bad Company.”
“Both the fans and the band were in great form that night in London. The rapport with the audience was deeply felt, and they sang their hearts out. Thinking back to that evening in retrospect, Mick’s song ‘Ready for Love’ was particularly moving, singing ‘Walking down this rocky road wondering where my life is leading’; little did we know that Mick would suffer a stroke just four days after this concert.” – Paul Rodgers
Nearly a decade after that night, the complete concert is now being released for the first time. What began as another major Bad Company performance has taken on deeper significance in the years since, preserving Ralphs’ unmistakable guitar work alongside Rodgers’ iconic voice and Kirke’s powerhouse rhythm in one of the band’s final defining performances together.
“When Bad Company last played in London, it was at the O2 Arena. We had enjoyed a great tour of England, and it would culminate in this final show. We were all in good spirits. Paul performed brilliantly every night, and Mick was playing with his usual taste and panache… It was the last time I ever played with Mick…had I known that at the time, I would have hugged him a little tighter and a little longer.” – Simon Kirke
The evening culminated in an encore performance of the acoustic classic “Seagull,” bringing the concert to an intimate close that now serves as a poignant final chapter to Ralphs’ live history with Bad Company.
