It’s unbelievable to think that this classic is over 50 years old! Paul Rodgers has no equal as a rock vocalist, his voice is like a miracle, it’s as if he was chosen by God to sing rock songs! What can you say about Paul Kossoff? His tone and vibrato is pure genius, and you can tell that he inspired so many guitarists, RIP Koss. Andy Fraser wrote the music to this song, apparently in 10-15 minutes and Rodgers the lyrics! Incredible that they were all so young here, and Andy, the youngest had only just turned 18, and was already a phenomenal bassist! Simon Kirke’s drumming is just mind blowing and powerful! Simon is 20 (almost 21) Paul Rodgers was still only 20, Kossoff 19 and as mentioned Fraser 18. That’s insane to be this good when so young, Free were surely one of the greatest lineups of all time!

Darren, so true, thanks for your comment. Of course with the exception of Jimi, Paul Kossoff had a technique for vibrato that nobody ever matched.
