Bad Influence is the second studio album by the blues singer-songwriter and guitarist Robert Cray.
Released with Hightone Records, this was the album thought to have put Cray on the map, prior to his explosion into the mainstream with Strong Persuader in 1986. It was his second release and his first on High Tone Records. It contained two cover versions: Johnny Guitar Watson's "Don't Touch Me" and Eddie Floyd's "Got to Make a Comeback". The most well-known songs off the album are probably the funky minor-key blues song "Phone Booth", later covered by Cray's idol Albert King, & the title track which was subsequently covered by Eric Clapton . Bruce Bromberg and Dennis Walker produced the album for the California-based High Tone Records. To date the album sold over a million copies.
