Well just worked & was so amazing & that Free sound was born & was like a heartbeat that drew in so many to move, entwine & know deep down this music was very special When Free was born they did indeed throw away the mould No one has been able to capture the essence the 4 of them created, like a living musical muse. I miss them every day, i play their music everyday since they broke up The sad songs physically hurt my insides, the painful lump in my throat, the hot tears burn & the feeling of loss is the saddest of all. Thankfully i was able to see many of their live concerts, here in Newcastle upon Tyne, at their live recording gig in Sunderland At various rock festivals, countrywide, a few gigs in London, every single time they played it was so electrifying & utterly euphoric to feel the movement & sound shudder into your whole body. No other band affected me this way, even being at live performances from Led Zepp at the hight of their greatness which was phenomenal & Plants vocals & Jimmys guitar playing left me speechless & they sounded better live than on record! They still couldnt get through to me the way Free could. Im so sad i never met them but i had their music & that was all i ever needed. Funnily i was just listening to " I'll be Creepin" just as i read your txt comment, now "Seagull" Is playing....beautiful just beautiful Anyway thank you for your lovely reply, im pleased you "felt" my devotion & know why im devoted To the best band ive ever had the utter pleasure of hearing & absorbing & moving my whole body & soul to.

Nowadays quoted by all & sundry as being a well established source of energy or ET or mind transfer Etc etc but it doesnt exist in reality. Im a great fan of Lord Edward Bulwer-Lytton & his works & his quotes he devised are legendary yet no one remembers HIM It was he who wrote: " It was a dark & stormy night as the crew sat round the deck" " The Great Unwashed" " The pen is mightier than the sword" There were a few others but the above are universally known but not who invented them, shame I loved reading The Coming Race book, its very lengthy & if reading something so long isnt your forte, it is on audio book but take a week off work to listen to it & digest its myriad concepts which arent far off the mark in todays society.

Not like these young punks who think they can do anything they want, refuse to work for less than $50 hr for doing nothing. Nowadays there is no work ethic because this administration pays kids not to work, to sit on their ass and do nothing and get paid by starling our tax monies and giving it away to illegal aliens and losers.

That black Les Paul custom at 1:00 I saw on eBay many years ago. I think his folks had bought it for him. Don't quite remember, but I think it was selling for $250,000. This is probably the only pic I've seen him playing it.

THE LEAD SINGER WAS GOOD TOO, ALOTTA SOUL, HE SOMETIMES SOUND LIKE A YOUNG ROD SWERART, SAME RASPY SOUL....I FEEL SLIGHTED THAT I NEVER LIKED OR HEARD THE BLUES ROCK FROM THE 60S AND 70S, UNTIL NOW, AT 40 I BEEN PLAYING GUITAR FOR 16MTHS, BUILT A STUDIO MADE IT MY FULL TIME JOB..STARTED LISTENING TO YOUNG CLAPTON, GREEN, BB, ALBERT KING FREDDIE KING..AND I WORKED HARD BUT IT CAME NATURAL TO ME, ESPECIALLY SOUL, AND HEAVY BLUES, I THINK BC IM A SINGER SO MY PHRASING WAS THERE! ANYWAY, I STUDIED THE GREATS PUT ABOUT 4000 HRS IN IN 16 MTHS THATS LIKE 8 TO 10 HRS A DAY NOOO DAYSSS OFFFF! ,NOT EVEN A HOLIDAY! JUST FELL IN LOVE AND BC OBSESSED, EVEN THREW MY CELL PHONE AWAY, WHO NEEDS THE AGGRIVATION? STARTED WRITING AND CRAZY ENOUGH IM MAKING AN ALBUM, THAT INDUSTRY PPL ARE INTERESTED IN, IM SHARING THIS ONLY TO SAY I WAS SOOOO MADDD THE 1ST YEAR BC A FRIEND OF MINE TOLD ME IF I DIDNT PARTY SO MUCH IN MY 20S AND 30S I WOULDVE BEEN A STAR! IT WAS LIKE GETTING KICKED IN MY CHEST, BC I SANG WELL, PPL ALWAYS HAD HIGH EXPECTATIONS FOR ME BUT I PARTIED AND WAS A NOTORIOUS WOMANIZER INSTEAD, AND GOT CAUGHT UP WITH DRUGS IN MY 30;S SO KOSSOFF HITS HOME....BC IF I WOULDVE PERSUED A MUSIC CAREER THEN? I WOULDVE DEFINITLY BEEN DEAD...WAY TOO WILD, WAY TOO DUMB, LOL BUT MY EXPERIENCES BROUGHT ALOT OF PAIN, LOST ALOT OF FRIENDS AND EVEN THOUGH I JUST STARTED PLAYING EVERYBODY KEEPS SAYING THAT I PLAY WITH ALOT OF EMOTION,AND ITS BC OF WHAT I WENT THOUGH... I CANT HEAR IT, TO ME IM TERRIBLE LOL BUT THE MORAL OF THE STORY IS? I FEEL LIKE IM 22 AGAIN, CLEAN 3 AND A HALF YEARS OFF OF PILLS, AND AT 40 IM EVEN BETTER BC IM OLDER, WISER, AND THERES SO MUCH MORE PAIN IN MY VOICE, AND LYRICS.. AND THATS WHAT CONVEYS EMOTION IN PEOPLE ESPECIALLY WHEN ITS AUTHENTIC...SO FUCK IT, ILL JUST ROCK ON NOW AT 40! R.I,P KOSSOFF ILL BE SURE TO HONOR HIM AND HIS STYLE IN MY MUSIC.....GOD BLESS!
