I always liked this version a little better than the rest, Medlocke seems to be able to project his voice better on this one, I really like Paul Rodgers stuff on other songs, but I think Medlocke wins on this one, maybe it's just the way it was mixed. Rodgers seems more behind the music, Medlocke seems more out in front on this one.
Dude, I'm 14 now. I wish that I grew up in your guy's generation! You had the best of everything! Cars, girls, movies and especially MUSIC! Jeez, I don't mean to complain, but god, this generation of music is worse than like... Madonna! Plus, all of our cars now-a-days don't have emissions- more like unicorn dust and rainbows. I already have a lunchbox, I don't want to drive one.
@mrtheroosterdude Very true ... plus Freelove and no AIDS invented yet. But on the Dark Side ... well we did have AM radio all too much. Now you got CD players and this remastered stuff can really rock out!
@mperry104b lol.. another old guy. Yea.. I'm rite with ya! Styx, Black Foot, Journey on and on...... man, we were lucky when it came to music. Poor kids today have thump, thump, and rap crap...Thank goodness there were no computers to screw up raw talent/music.
I agree with boxerpoop. This is another overlooked classic rock tune that the radio stations ignore. I'm a singer and my band is also thinking about covering this song as well. There's no reason why this shouldn't be on the radio more. I hate classic rock radio for ignoring great tunes like this one.
i liked the gary moore version too. i wish this kind of music would still be a bit more alive today... i mean sure it's the 60s 70s and 80s but it'd be cool if there were some more places you could go to where they'd still play this music. modern rock/metal isn't as great as this eventhough i must admit i enjoy listening to it every now and then.
Free and Blackfoot versions are good. as good as each other in their OWN right. How many versions of "It hurts me too" have you heard. they're all different, but good. The point is that Blackfoot did this song with great respect. I'm sure Paul Rodgers was happy with this, and I'm sure Ricky was honored to sing this great song.
Call it a cover or whatever you want. NO ONE sings this song better than Ricky Medlocke! Blackfoot made this song their own! Ricky Medlocke KICKS ASS!!
we don't need any more police here. we can take care of ........it. police, catch some real criminals. don't bother me. my stomach is tied up in knots allready.
Very good cover of a classic from the Free song catalog, I did not realize Blackfoot had this good rendition in them: Well Done Dudes, well done indeed! Thanks MagicMan610 for the upload and You Tube for being your bad self and clearing the space for this really cool effort! Rock On BLACKFOOT and Shindiggers everywhere!

I've heard a version of this song performed by Free.Nevertheless...Blackfoot rocks,regardless of who's in the current lineup.......of course,that's only MY opinion...
Great souther version of a British gem...Rogers as a vocalist is pretty much untouchable, but kudos to Blackfoot for remembering a great tune. I'f like to hear someone like Doro Pesch attempt a femme cover of it...like she did LZ's "Babe I'm Gonna Leave You".
never knew that Free did this. Not sure who was first. I like the vocals with Free better. Rogers just has more range and feeling in his voice. But, I did have this blackfoot album and loved it.

Medlocke didn't write the song or the lyrics...it was written by Paul Rodgers, Simon Kirk, Paul Kossoff and the members of Free.
