Self-titled debut battle: Bad Company vs Foreigner

[Lynch]

Two heavyweights in 70's classic rock / AOR. The two albums came out a couple years apart but both did pretty well on the charts as well as spawned a few singles that are still classic rock radio staples ... as well as songs that were played in concert for years to come.

[Mr. T]

Absolutely impossible for me to pick on this one.... a true dead heat for me!

 

[Lynch]

I added in a both option. Thought about it originally and then kinda forgot when I submitted the poll.

Feel free to choose that option if ya like.

 

[Groovy Man]

This is almost too hard for me, also...

but, I'll give the edge to Bad Co's debut album.

Although I must say the debut album by Foreigner is a great classic album as well.

 

[METALPRIEST]

Foreigner

They're both good but I just like the musical structure better from Foreigner

 

[FireandWater]

Bad Company!

Head Knocker by Foreigner is truly an underrated song though.

 

[DaKillerWolf]

I like both but Bad Co. gets my vote

 

[LG]

Foreigner, both classics.

 

[That 70s Guy]

Foreigner

 

[Magic]

I should pull the "woman has a right to change her mind" card


First instinct is for Bad Company....
