Oh yeah what a great rythm section, Free is the very definition of a supergroup even more so than Zeppelin.

From the viewpoint of a music fan and a musician, I would have to disagree. Matching up player to player, Zeppelin gets the nod for versatlity and overall musicianship. I think Paul Rodgers is a very soulful singer and can play alot of different instruments very well, he falls short of Plant's dynamics in the vocal dept.
I would call Bad Company a supergroup as opposed to Free. Kossoff may be a tastier lead player than Ralphs ? But the songs of Bad Company edge out Free in the longrun.

I got into a bad car accident when I was 17 and when I came to, Free's All Right Now was still blaring on the radio. I kid you all not!!!
