help Free FAQ
Which Free song contains Paul Kossoff's best-known guitar riff?
"All Right Now" features Kossoff's sparse, instantly recognizable riff and Paul Rodgers's lead vocal. It appeared on Fire and Water in 1970 and became Free's signature hit.
Who were the four members of Free's classic lineup?
The classic lineup was Paul Rodgers, Paul Kossoff, Andy Fraser, and Simon Kirke. Their unusually spacious arrangements left room for Fraser's bass lines and Kossoff's vibrato-heavy guitar playing.
What did Paul Rodgers and Simon Kirke do after Free?
Rodgers and Kirke formed Bad Company with Mick Ralphs and Boz Burrell in 1973. Bad Company's self-titled debut followed in 1974 and included "Can't Get Enough" and "Ready for Love."
Is "Where Is Love?" one of Free's major songs?
Free are better known for songs such as "Wishing Well," "Fire and Water," "The Stealer," and "All Right Now." "Where Is Love?" is associated most famously with the musical Oliver!, so its inclusion in some Free descriptions is likely a catalog error.
