Summary: Champions Of Cool!
Review: Never having seen a "live" concert of Bad Company's, this DVD is probably the closest I will ever get to such an occasion. Having been a Bad Company addict since the days of Free, this DVD has not disappointed in the slightest. The production is extremely professional and every song is a personal favourite. Including a couple of Beatles' numbers in a medley was also quite interesting. Although the signs of advancing years are there, Paul Rodgers' voice is still brilliant and the band's energy is there for all to see. Definitely one of my more satisfying DVD purchases.

Summary: Merchants Of Cool?
Review: Paul Rodgers should make this concert video a training film for other 70's rockers who want to continue making a possitive influence and impact in the Rock genre today. I've been 'Runnin' with the Pack' since my middle and high school days back in the mid 70's and since this concert I still 'CAN'T GET ENOUGH.' Paul is Magnificaent, Kirke is definately a 'Captain', and Lochrie and Colwell, whoa - what can I say? ABSOLUTELY GREAT! The audience participation alone (in this DVD) should define not only the loyalty and commitment of BAD COMPANY fans, but also the incredible sincerity and leadership of Paul to get this right. If there were ten stars in this rating - this DVD would have gotten it from me.
How this band failed to receive the recognition of the other power bands of the 70's (The Stones, The Who, Aerosmith, Led Zeplin, Pink Floyd, Bob Seger and the Silver Bullett Band, Lynard Skynard and even Genisis) I'll never understand. I suppose Paul Rodgers and BAD COMPANY just decided to methodically cut great tune after great tune for their true fans without worrying about the polls - just remember who won the race between the tortoise and the hare. BC - just like your rainbow in Silver, Blue and Gold - this DVD was overdue - don't let this be the last and don't ever break up.
WOW!!! This is a must buy! This is the best concert in my collection!

Summary: Syracuse 1974 to Tucson 2002
Review: There never was any available footage of Bad Company that I could find. I tried for a decade or more at least. Low and behold one day a few months ago in Tucson, there it was "The Merchants of Cool". I first saw BadCo in Syracuse, NY in 1974. I was an Air Force brat from Griffiss AFB).Damn-good-times! They blew me away then, and they blew me away again on "Merchants of Cool". How about a 6 Star rating for BadCo's "Merchants of Cool". Peace, Mark E. Pike

Review: They're back! Rock your big screen with two of Bad Co's original founding members Paul Rodgers and Simon Kirke as they perform hits of yesterday and today with new members "Bucket" Caldwell and Jaz Locherie on the 2002 tour. Sound quality and camera footage are top notch in this live production. A must have for any Bad Company or classic rock fan

Summary: Fantastic DVD
Review: This is a great collection of classic music played flawlessly and enhanced by the quality a DVD recording gives you. You won't believe how good it sounds.
I saw Bad Company when the original lineup toured in '99 and frankly, they got blown off the stage by the opener, David Lee Roth. This may seem wrong, but the new lineup had much more passion when I saw them this summer (6-02). And that's what you get on this disc. All the hits, including the new tunes and All Right Now by Free are great. The highlight has to be Rock 'n Roll Fantasy, with the very cool twist they put in the end. Check it out...The extra stuff is cool, but I could have done without hearing from ...Jounrey.

Summary: I was there..Anaheim CA
Review: This is a great DVD. I was at the CA show when the DVD and CD were recorded. They did a great job of relating what it was like to be at the show. I've seen Paul Rodgers 3 times now in the past 2 years and his voice is better then ever. What you get on the DVD and CD is what we heard at the show. This is a must have for Paul Rodgers and Bad Company Fans.

Summary: Still One of the best !
Review: Well I was not sure what to expect from this new version of the band without Mick Ralphs, but I must say they were as good as I have ever heard them here. I have seen the band twice, once in their hayday and once a few years ago.Paul Rodgers was in top form sounding bluesy and soulful as ever. The sound and video production were top flight, really what a concert DVD should be. The song selection could not have been better in my opinion, every single classic song was played in this show, I was as happy with this DVD as I have been in a while with any DVD. If your a BAD COMPANY FAN in any way shape or form get this DVD, even if you never really heard them and you love rock and roll give this one a try!
