Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Circa 1970, who was Free's excellent drummer?

Answer: Simon Kirke

Simon Kirke was Paul Kossoff's partner in Black Cat Bones, and together with Andy Fraser of John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, this made up the line-up in Free.

2. What was Free's signature song?

Answer: All Right Now

This song had more than one million radio plays in the United States alone.

3. In 1973 Paul Rodgers formed Bad Company with Boz Burrell, who was a former member of which band?

Answer: King Crimson

Bad Company took the United States by storm. They were and still are the most together band I know and each member just seems to gel with the next one.

4. After he left Bad Company in 1982, Paul Rodgers, formed The Firm with which former Led Zeppelin axe man?

Answer: Jimmy Page

Their two albums "The Firm" and "Mean Business" enjoyed international success. Paul Rodger's voice together with Jimmy Page's guitar are almost everyone's dream combination.

5. In 1991 Paul Rodger's next venture was with former Small Faces and Who drummer Kenney Jomes. What were they called?

Answer: The Law

"The Law" album is a terrific album and some of the ballads are so haunting and beautiful. In my opinion Paul Rodger's is one of our finest singer/songwriters.

Answer: Jeff Beck

This album was a tribute to Muddy Waters and showed Paul's blues roots and debt to Muddy, one of his first influences.

7. In 1998 Paul assembled a new band with guitarist Geoff Whitehorn on guitar, who has played with a number of great bands, and, on bass, Jaz Lochrie, who played with eighties band Go West.

Answer: True

The band were a terrific live band and their album "Now" is one of Paul Rodgers' best.

8. Paul toured with which Mega Rock Band in 2005?

Answer: Queen

Their explosive European Tour was out of this world. Paul frequently said that there was no way that anyone could replace Freddie Mercury and he would never try to. Brian May and Roger Taylor did a mixture of Paul's songs and Queen's songs and all the concerts were complete sell outs.

9. Going back in time, the animals that were on the cover of the Bad Company album "Run with the Pack" were wolves.

Answer: True

"Run with the Pack" is one of my favourite Bad Company albums. The cover shows a she wolf suckling her cubs and a little human baby. It's interesting that my favourite animal should be linked with my favourite rock singer!

Answer: Steve Vai

This was a fantastic concert, jam packed with talent. All of the above were there and there was also Cosy Powell on drums and Rick Wakeman on organ. What a blast!
