THE SKY IS BURNIN'
I BELIEVE
MY SOUL'S ON FIRE
Burnin' Sky
is the fourth
studio album
by the
English
rock band
It was released on
March 3rd 1977.
Burnin' Sky
was recorded in
France at
Château d'Hérouville
in July and August 1976
with future
Rolling Stones engineer
Chris Kimsey.
Its release was delayed
until March 1977
so as not to compete
with the band's
then-current album
Run with the Pack.
The album peaked
at No. 15
on the
Billboard 200
and No. 17
in the
UK Albums Chart.
Rough Diamonds
is the sixth
studio album
by the
English
rock band
released in
August 1982.
Rough Diamonds,
like its predecessor,
Desolation Angels,
was recorded at
Ridge Farm Studio in
Surrey, England,
in March and April 1981
and engineered by
Max Norman
famed for his work
with
Ozzy Osbourne
It was the last album
to feature the
original lineup.
The sessions were rough
going from the beginning.
First, their manager,
Peter Grant,
withdrew from view
after the death of
Led Zeppelin
drummer
John Bonham
in 1980.
Then, on another occasion,
a fistfight broke out
between
Paul Rodgers
and
Boz Burrell,
and the two bandmates
were restrained by
Mick Ralphs
and Simon Kirke.
Following the album,
they disbanded,
with Rodgers
going on to release
his first solo album,
Cut Loose,
the following year.
The album's opening track,
"Electricland",
written by Rodgers,
was the album's
biggest hit.
Rodgers'
"Painted Face"
also received
substantial airplay
on rock stations.
The album became
the original line-up's
worst-selling album,
reaching a
disappointing No. 26
on the
Billboard
album charts
in 1982.
