Japanese vinyl pressings are highly sought after by audiophiles and collectors, due to their beautiful packaging and premium sound quality (which explains why American audiophile label Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab chose to have their highly regarded pressings manufactured in Japan). Near Mint condition original Japanese pressings are becoming scarcer ~ therefore more collectable and valuable every year.

    AMG – January 21, 2016

    Superbly recorded by Andy Johns, this is one of the greatest live albums of the 1970s. 4 ½ Stars Although Free made excellent studio records, Free ‘Live!" is perhaps the best way to experience the band in all its glory. Led by singer-guitarist Paul Rodgers and lead guitarist Paul Kosoff, the band swings through nine songs with power, clarity, and a dose of funk. Of course, the hit single "All Right Now" is gleefully extended, much to the audience and listener's delight. Superbly recorded by Andy Johns, this is one of the greatest live albums of the 1970s. 4 ½ Stars

    Geoff – January 18, 2016

    A fantastic live album of Free -- Paul Kossoff, Paul Rodgers, Andy Fraser & Simon Kirke -- at their peak. Free were undoubtedly amongst the best of the blues rock bands that were active in the late '60s / early '70s. Paul Kossoff's superb, refined guitar work, perfectly complimented Paul Rodgers' earthy, emotive vocals. Combined with the super-tight rhythm section of Andy Fraser and Simon Kirke, they made some very soulful and powerful music. In 1968 Free released their debut album 'Tons of Sobs', and from there, the group's natural approach to the blues evolved into their own brand of hard rock -- later imitated by many other bands. Released just a few months after the group broke up, Free ‘Live!' begins with their smash hit "All Right Now", which lasts for over six minutes. It is followed by loud, guitar-driven versions of "Be My Friend", "Fire and Water", "Ride on a Pony" and "Mr. Big". The concert recordings wind up with one of the band's most popular tracks, "The Hunter" which receives a hearty, loud cheer. The album then closes with one of the last tracks recorded in the studio by the band before they split. "Get Where I Belong" is a slow, mellow, acoustic song -- a beautiful to round off a fantastic live album of Free at their peak.
