Saw Free at Randwick Racecourse, Sydney, in the 70's. They were on a bill with Deep Purple and Manfred Mann....they blew everyone away. Great band, best vocalist I've ever heard in live performance. Held the audience of 30,000 to the point where they didn't want them to stop. Permanently etched as one of the best concerts I've ever attended.

These early performances: One thing about FREE was that their “sound” , LIVE and otherwise, was pleasing to the ears. By that I mean , you don’t hear muffled guitar or bass tones, the drums sound very well tuned (which is one thing I’ve always noticed about Simon Kirke in FREE & Bad Co.- his drum tuning and sound has always sounded so ORGANIC- very close to John Bonham’s signature sound/tone) - of course Paul’s voice was always spot on . If you think about it , that is a hard thing to do initially on its own , but as a professional band - back then - it was a must , because playing live , there weren’t all the sound conditioning techniques or technology there is today: it was raw , live playing. And that’s really how a true Rock band should sound: natural and not overly produced or unrealistically mixed with effects etc.
