They were mostly remembered for All Right Now and its album "Fire and Water" and probably for the "Heartbreaker" album as well and also for Paul Rodgers fame with Bad Company, but the Paul Kossoff link was another factor as well. It was only years after his death that Paul Kossoff started to get mentioned in the same breath as the likes of Hendrix, Page and Blackmore. Hell...even boring old Eric Clapton was cited as asking Kossoff how he did certain things with the guitar, probably in an attempt to spruce up his boring old guitar act.
