The 'Original' Bad Co. Anthology (also The 'Original' Bad Company Anthology ) is a
compilation album released by
Bad Company in 1999 on
Elektra Records . In addition to the band's classic hits, it also features four new songs ― the first since 1982 to feature original lead singer
Paul Rodgers ― three
B-sides and three previously unreleased
outtakes . Technical information was retrieved from the 1999 Edition released by
Elektra Records . Most of the songs on the album were previously released on
Swan Song Records . The tracks "Tracking Down a Runaway", "Ain't It Good", "Hammer of Love" and "Hey, Hey" were new songs recorded especially for this release. The compilation notably omits the tracks "Young Blood", "Gone, Gone, Gone" and "
Electricland ", all of which were fairly big hits with Rodgers.
