“Can't Get Enough” by Bad Company

"Can't Get Enough" kicked the door in for Bad Company in 1974, the supergroup's first single and a calling card for their self-titled debut. Mick Ralphs wrote it, tuning his guitar to open C to get the ring he wanted, and he borrowed the riff from "One of the Boys", a song from his Mott the Hoople days in 1972.

It's a no-nonsense strut: Ralphs' chords ringing out, Boz Burrell and Simon Kirke locked into a heavy, unhurried groove, and Paul Rodgers singing with the controlled heat that the trade papers singled out at the time. The band produced it themselves, with Ron Nevison recording and mixing. It hit number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100 and topped Cashbox, and it remains their biggest hit and the song classic rock radio can't stop playing.
