Bad Company were an English rock supergroup formed in London in 1973 by singer Paul Rodgers and drummer Simon Kirke (both ex-Free), guitarist Mick Ralphs (ex-Mott the Hoople) and bassist Boz Burrell (ex-King Crimson).

Kosloff went on to Leaf Hound, Black Cat Bones, Back Street, CrawlerKossoff/Kirke/Tetsu/Rabbit (yes, Kirke is Simon Kirke from Free).

Andy Fraser was with John Mayall & the Blues breakers, Toby, and Sharks.
