DESOLATION ANGELS is the fifth studio album by English rock supergroup Bad Company, released on 7th March 1979. Paul Rodgers revealed on In The Studio With Redbeard, which devoted an episode to DESOLATION ANGELS, that the album's title came from the 1965 novel of the same name by Jack Kerouac. The title was almost used ten years previous to name the second album from Paul Rodgers' previous band, Free, which in the end was called simply Free. DESOLATION ANGELS was recorded in England in late 1978. It is considered the last strong album by Bad Company with the original lineup, mostly because it contains their last major hit, "Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy", written by Paul Rodgers and inspired by a guitar synthesizer riff which Rodgers had come up with. The album went Platinum in 1979 and Double Platinum subsequently. It was Bad Company final top ten album in both the U.S. and the UK. In addition to "Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy", "Gone, Gone, Gone", written by bassist Boz Burrell, also received substantial airplay on rock stations. The original version of "Oh, Atlanta", written by Mick Ralphs,was used in the open to The Nashville Network's 1993 broadcast of the Motorcraft 500 when ABC (which originally had the broadcast) could not find time to air the race, which had been postponed six days by a snowstorm in the Atlanta Motor Speedway. The album was remastered in 1994. In 2020, Rhino put out a Deluxe Edition to honor the 40th Anniversary with many alternate versions and bonus tracks.

After a much needed two year hiatus, Bad Company re-emerged with their strongest batch of songs since that impressive debut, including the electrifying “Rock’n’Roll Fantasy”, ”Evil Wind”, and “Crazy Circles” all from Paul Rodgers chronicling life on tour, Boz Burrell’s simple groove on “Gone, Gone, Gone” and the mid-tempo rocker “Oh Atlanta” from Mick Ralphs. By the time Bad Company released DESOLATION ANGELS, it was evident that even Paul Rodgers and Mick Ralphs were getting tired of their '70s-styled, conveyor-belt brand of rock & roll, so they decided to add keyboards and some minor string work to the bulk of the tracks. Although this change of musical scenery was a slight breath of fresh air, it wasn't enough to give DESOLATION ANGELS the much added depth or distinction that was intended, and only the vocal passion of "Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy" really comes out on top, eventually becoming a gold single. The good news is that DESOLATION ANGELS is a noticeable improvement from 1977's Burnin' Sky, with Bad Company's sound taking on a smoother, more polished feel than its predecessor. "Gone, Gone, Gone", "Lonely For Your Love" and "She Brings Me Love" work best in Paul Rodgers' favor, and fans did prove their loyalty, pushing the album to the number ten mark in the U.K. and to number three in the U.S. The campaign toward a new sound does cause a few of the cuts, like a "Crazy Circles" and "Evil Wind" to appear a bit forced and overly glitzy, especially the use of electronic drums, and the album spawns a smattering of a few attractive moments rather than evolving as a complete, constructive listen. Things didn't get much better for Bad Company, and it was after the release of 1982's Rough Diamonds, a much weaker and unattached effort, that Paul Rodgers decided to call it quits.
