That said, it does have my favorite Bad Company song, &#8220;Feel Like Makin&#8217; Love.&#8221; I can&#8217;t seem to play that song loud enough.

I&#8217;m a sucker for the pretty verse then heavy chorus thing. Another great one is &#8220;Shooting Star.&#8221; &#8220;Good Lovin&#8217; Gone Bad&#8221; is a distant third to those but it&#8217;s fun to listen to, maybe because I remember it from the radio when I was a kid.<\/p>\n<p>There are only eight songs on <em>Straight Shooter<\/em> and the other five are pretty forgettable.
