So soulful, organic, honest and pure, and all of them between 18 and 20 years of age when this was performed and recorded. Doesn't get any better than this, folks -- 4 young guys writing all of their own songs and performing them live with no gimmicks, no live monitors, no fancy light/stage shows. Just to reitererate, Free were using amateur equipment here with no live monitors in front of around 600, 000 people . . . WOW! Can you imagine any young band doing this now? Don't think so. GR8 band!

All feel brother from Rodgers vocals, to Fraser's bass lines to Kossoff pure emotion in every note and Simon Kirke on drums. No gimmicks, no auto tune, nor even monitors just pure talent and true ability. What more can I say. Today's music is shit. These guys are barely in their 20s. Andy Fraser was 16 when they cut the first album, Kossoff 17 and Kirke and Rodgers 20. Hard to believe they were that good at such a young age!! Imagine what they could have done 10 years down the road??? A shame what happened to Koss!! A tremendous loss to the music world!!! Huj

Only hours later he talked about meeting me over the local radio and said "hey to the lady I just met on the beach, and now she and I are friends and she knows who she is."

Hearing this makes me sad of how popular music has deteriorated so much since then. Nothing is played or written with soul or feeling anymore, no emotion, no uniqueness, everything is over-produced and bland and all sounds the same. No one has desire to play actual real instruments, they'd rather let a computer do it all for them so they don't have to. And what's worse is they don't even have to have a great voice due to auto-tune. No this music, the music of Free and incredible groups like them, are lost to the sands of time. Thank goodness we have KZitem so we can relive the golden era of music, when talented young musicians were making history and moving millions across the world instead of "dropping beats" and "sampling" someone else's work to call their own as they do today.
