The Law (band)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Law were an English rock group formed in 1991 comprising of ex-The Who, Drummer Kenny Jones,and former Free and Bad Company singer Paul Rodgers.The two teamed up with the idea of using different supporting musicians, in order to allow Paul Rodgers to pursue whatever musical style he felt like. They assembled a core band of studio musicians, including guitarist John Staehely and bassist Pino Palladino, and landed guest spots from guitarists like David Gilmour, Bryan Adams, and Chris Rea.They produced Billboard's #1 AOR Chart hit "Laying Down The Law" written by Rodgers, but the album peaked at a disappointing #126 on the Billboard's Pop Albums chart. A second album was recorderd but never released it can be found on the bootleg market. The album is often referred to as The Law II
