Paul Rodgers : (4)

" I met Paul Kossoff for the first time when I was playing in the back of a pub room in Finsbury Park in London in 1967. It was kind of a blues thing going on, and he came up and said, ‘I’d like to have a jam.’ So he came up and jammed with me, and I just loved his playing right from the start. " - Paul Rodgers

" The one thing I loved about blues and soul was the way they taught the world how to express such deep feelings. " - Paul Rodgers

" I had a band when I was 14, and we would play around in my hometown of Middlesbrough, and we’d go to the club afterwards, which was the Purple Onion then. There would be live bands playing, and in between that, the DJ would be playing records. " - Paul Rodgers

" When we formed Bad Company, I looked around and asked, ‘Who is the biggest rock band in the world?’ The answer was undoubtedly Led Zeppelin. Peter Grant was their manager, so we got him to work with us. That made the difference for Bad Company. " - Paul Rodgers
