A second single has emerged from Can’t Get Enough: A Tribute to Bad Company, the upcoming album featuring new recordings from Slash, Halestorm, Black Stone Cherry, The Struts, Dirty Honey and more.
Run With The Pack – originally the title track of Bad Company's third album – is the follow-up to The Struts' cover of Rock ‘N’ Roll Fantasy, and has been recorded by southern rockers Blackberry Smoke, with help from Mastodon drummer Brann Dailor on percussion and backing vocals. Most notably, the recording also features the voice of Free and Bad Company frontman Paul Rodgers.
"Bad Company has always been one of those bands that just hits you in the chest – raw, soulful and real," says Blackberry Smoke frontman Charlie Starr. "Run with the Pack is like a masterclass in groove and grit. There’s simplicity to it that’s so powerful – no frills, just feel.
"You don’t need to dress it up – it’s just honest. Paul Rodgers' voice is cool confidence, never overdone, just authentic. That kind of music doesn’t age; it just gets cooler."
"Blackberry Smoke absolutely channelled the essence of the song and everyone delivered from their souls," adds Rodgers. "I love every aspect of their performance, harmonies, guitars and delivery!"
Can’t Get Enough: A Tribute to Bad Company will be released on October 24, two weeks before the band joins the class of 2025 at this year's Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles, CA. It's available to pre-order now.
