About this listen

Mick Ralphs, the legendary guitarist and co-founder of Bad Company and Mott the Hoople, has passed away at the age of 81. Known for his bluesy riffs and rock-solid songwriting, Ralphs was a driving force behind some of the most iconic tracks in classic rock, including *"All the Young Dudes, *"Can’t Get Enough,"* and *"Feel Like Makin’ Love."* After rising to fame with Mott the Hoople in the early 1970s, he went on to form Bad Company with Paul Rodgers, Simon Kirke, and Boz Burrell, creating a string of hits that defined the era’s hard-rock sound. With his soulful playing and understated stage presence, Ralphs left an indelible mark on music, influencing generations of guitarists. Fans and fellow musicians alike mourn the loss of a true rock pioneer whose riffs will forever echo through rock history.
