Free (Free album)
''Free'' is the second album by English rock group Free, recorded and released in 1969. The band had spent time touring after their debut album ''Tons of Sobs'' the previous year, and there is a marked difference in the musicianship of the band as well as Paul Rodgers's voice. Whereas ''Tons of Sobs'' had been produced by Guy Stevens, ''Free'' was produced by the head of Island Records, Chris Blackwell.
==Recording==
This album saw the burgeoning of the songwriting partnership between Paul Rodgers and bassist Andy Fraser, which had been glimpsed on ''Tons of Sobs'' with songs such as "I'm a Mover"; here, eight out of the nine tracks bear a Fraser/Rodgers credit. Possibly as a result of the sixteen-year-old Fraser's influence as a songwriter the bass guitar is far more prominent here than on the previous album. The instrument is used as a rhythm guitar, driving the songs, while Kossoff's lead guitar develops from it.
While Fraser and Rodgers made a strong writing partnership, tensions in the band increased. Kossoff, whose natural spontaneity had been given free rein up to then, particularly resented being taught very specific rhythm guitar parts by Fraser. However, Blackwell managed to keep the band in line to record the album.
However, the album performed fairly poorly on release, only reaching No. 22 in the UK charts and failing completely in the US. The single releases, "Broad Daylight" and "I'll Be Creepin'", also failed. Two songs from the album, "I'll Be Creepin'" and "Woman", were later covered by the American rock band Three Dog Night.
