Live In Concert 1977 & 1979 is a live album by Bad Company.
It captures two concerts, two years apart:
For some strange reason, it has taken nearly 40 years for Bad Company to release an official live album from their 1970s prime time. Mick Ralphs released Live In Albuquerque which captured a 1976 concert but other members of the band complained and it was immediately withdrawn.
Sadly I’d argue that the band was by this time in decline, peaking with their first two studio albums.
Denver 1979 is a live album by Rainbow. It has been released on vinyl and as an mp3 download by Cleopatra Records (UK) and Purple Pyramid Records (USA).

Chapman had previously been the second guitarist in UFO in 1974 to promote the Phenomenon album. He left in early 1975 to form Lone Star (another group I liked and saw live). He filled in for Michael Schenker during an absence in 1977.

While the album wasn’t released until 1997, the recording positions it between Nugent’s first and second live albums, Double Live Gonzo and Intensities In 10 Cities.
This is one of the early gigs with Charlie Huhn as the new lead singer replacing Derek St. Holmes who was with Ted Nugent during his peak years in the late seventies.
