ZebedyZak 4th Feb 2016		As you can see from the labels, "Little Miss Fortune" is not on this LP. I commented on 45cat about that, because some issues of the "Can't Get Enough" single erroneously claimed that the B-side was also on this album, but it isn't. "Don't Let Me Down" bears more than a passing resemblance to the Beatles song of the same title, although it is not the same song. On the other hand, "Ready For Love" IS the same song as the one on Mott The Hoople's "All The Young Dudes" album, it was written by Ralphs while he still guitared for MTH, some time before Bad Company came into existence. In the USA, "Movin' On" was released as a follow-up single to "Can't Get Enough", but not in the UK. At least one music paper in August 1974 announced that there was to be another single from this album, but it didn't say the title. Since then I have discovered that the number WIP 6204 appears to be missing from Island's catalogue, and I have long wondered if that number was originally allocated to "Movin' On" in the UK but the single never saw the light of day here. It sounds like the same situation as with the Yardbirds single-that-never-was ("Goodnight Sweet Josephine") six years earlier. It certainly sounds feasible that WIP 6204 could have been intended to be a second Bad Company single, I remember the numbers 6203, 6205 and 6206 in that sequence all charted at that time. Can anybody confirm that my guess is correct? Was WIP 6204 originally intended to be "Movin' On" by Bad Company? All in all, this is an impressive debut album, as one might expect from such a fine collection of musicians.
