Tying to work out how Koss is actualy playing the chords. The main riff looks like E7#9 with the D string played at the 2nd fret (I normally leave it open), the E chord in the chorus looks like the same thing, but to me sounds very subtly different. Looks like B7#9 at the 7th (or is it just B7?). Then it looks like E7 at the 7th just before the solo. I've seen other versions where it just looks like he's playing B5 at the2nd, and E5 at the7th in the chorus. Anyone know for sure here? AWESOME!
I love how Kossoff plays in this song he had something that no one else at that time had, a very special man. Its a shame that we had to loose him at such a young age.R.I.P Kossoff you are still loved
What poor camera editing! During Andy Fraser's bass solo we hardly got a look at him. Instead focusing mainly on Paul Kossoff who we'd already seen plenty of. For what reason? Beats me. It should be plainly obvious to focus on the one doing the solo. All it needs is the ears to recognize who's playing.
@sweedlepipe Most likely reason I think is that the director or editor or camera person, has no musical clue as to what instrument the bass is, and think when they hear something it must be the guitar and so focus on the guitar, and cant figure out why it sounds the way it does or why the guitarist is not playing exactly what they are hearing, ie, the bass solo. I have been filmed for rock videos and the camera people will always focus on the plectrum and the strumming not the actual solo
@sweedlepipe I think its because back in the 70s bass players weren't as greatly appreciated as we nowadays. No doubt the bass solo in this is great. The guitar solo is one of the best I ever heard though so you can understand why the cameraman was still concentrating on Kossoff.
saw kossoff a cupla days before he died at newcastle city hall with Back street crawler. He was on mars at the start but as he played on he was awsome. Not the best guitarist I ever heard but one you want to listen to alot. also saw free as a 14yr old at the mayfair. Wil always love them. free live is constantly on in my car. Rogers should've been an out and out blues singer, the best white vocalist in my opinion.Live on.
In my opinion, this is exactly how a Gibson Les Paul should sound. So raw, stripped down and electric...unbelievable tone. I would have loved to see and hear them live.
Thanks for posting. Four unique voices in one band. Andy Fraser is a seriously unsung hero of the bass. Any young musician should be exposed to Free, an object lesson in laid back beat placement and use of space..,!

great free version of this classic got to be one of best versions on archive , very raw thats one of reason i think they must be one of best blues rock bands
I was very fortunate to have seen the original band back in 1970! In the unlikely venue that was the Eldorado Wrestling hall in Leith Edinburgh. They still are the biz a fabulous band in all respects
What a fantastic comment Kryszczynski unfortunately I wasn't around in 69 but yeah I can certainly picture what you are saying. Nice one man! Hope you get to read this.
Free were real troupers. Once, they opened for headliners Bonzo Dog Band and Family & brought the house down. Then management announced that Family’s violinist had mislaid his instrument somewhere & they didn’t fancy playing without it. Bit of a stand-off for a while. Then Free offered to do a second set to fill the gap. That kicked Chappo & Co’s butts right where it was needed! Somehow they found the bottle to get out there after all and perform (not too badly, as it turned out).
@zdwaffles - er, if you read my comment you can see that I both love Free and know about music. I also don't know who Justin Bieber is, I imagine I'm too old.
Granted, this is probably the best bass solo I've heard. But that's mainly because the other three musicians are still going over the top of it. Have you ever watched a bass player play a solo on his own? It's pretty much the most tragic thing you could ever hope to see.
@christfersmart1 aint no evil in this bass solo, he solos while the song continues with Koss's strong guitar and killer tone, F N brilliant! you cant match this, kirke is a rock solid drummer who didnt solo much but he knew when and how to bring it on. Find another song as well done and blended with a bass solo as this, virtually impossible.
Bass solos are evil and should not be encouraged. If you want to play a solo, play an instrument that doesn't make everyone want to go and get a drink at the bar. And yes, drummers, that includes you too.
This clip is great - not sure about the jazzy chord Kossoff is playing but great guitar solo face as usual.
bass solo's are amazing...obviously you havnt heard Pulling Teeth by metallica, and whats wrong with drum solo's ? people that talk shit on music and dont know crap about music make me wanna go drink. im tired of all you Justin Bieber fans polluting all the good music on youtube with your filth
@christfersmart1 Dont be a idiot. There is more skill in one of Andy frasers fingers than you will ever have. He lead the way for bassist to come into the limelight and add something to there music
Typical!!!During the song the focus is on Koss.Come the amazing bass solo,guess what?The focus is STILL on Koss and Kirke.WTF.I seriously believe that cameramen are told"Avoid the bass player at all costs,no matter what he does,or how good he is"Koss was good,but so was Andy,and I dont want to watch him strumming a chord while Andy is being a genius.Rant over.Good video tho' and a brilliant band.
Krzyszczynski well said! I saw them in very similar sounding club in Bishop's Stortford which I think was called the Blues Loft. Actualy an old hay loft at the back of a pub. I used to come away from there soaked in sweat and overflowing with enthusiasm for the guitar which I was then learning to play. I still play guitar but I'd swap that "talent" for a voice like Paul Rodgers any day.
For the age of these guys when they started (very young), they have one of the richest Brit Blues sounds I've ever heard that still holds well today- love them to bits!
Saw Free three times in Brighton during '69, last one at Jimmy's in Steine Street. Picture a narrow upstairs room, near-dark, crowded to bursting (no H&S to interfere then), standing room only. No stage, just a roped-off area against one wall; Simon Kirke's rack tom-tom about three feet from your nose, his flying sweat mingling with yours; Koss bounding around grimacing like the devil; Andy swaying ever more violently; Paul's superlative vocals ... best live show I ever saw, bar none.
@Krzyszczynski You lucky SOB. Free has been my favorite band my whole life! I'm only 18 so the closest I got was seeing bad company twice. I would kill to see Koss in action being a guitar player myself.
@yellowbluebus33 If you live in the uk have a look at the many tribute.. Free at last are the only one ive seen. Worth going to see a band and get down the front and enjoy.
I am a rocker through and through. All the way to some of todays stuff.... but, lock me in a room with 70's rock, froget about me, and I will be just fine....
Classic big sounding rhythm section, epic blues-rock soloing and one of the finest sets of pipes in the business in Rodgers-it doesn't get much better than this folks.
man, imagine having been that dopey camera captain and the shites missing 80% of A.F's bass solo!!!????! you have to wonder who was the director of that huge effing gaff!!!??? what a great band!? what great understated, emotionally charged, TOTALLY ASS KICKING TALENT. the best band EVER, long live FREE!! even the name of the outfit is perfect. the people they influenced is a who's who, and FREE got less than the accolades the should have, considering they were the best band EVER!!!
I kinda prefer improvisation... Improv is awesome, and gives you the ability of freedom of playing while live! And make the live version more unique than during in the studio...
simon kirke rules drums, so understated and groovesome-most bands just don't get its all in the rhythm section, just float everything else on top, impala327, your comment was so apt' i feel the same about free, just the best. this vid post is awesome, never seen it before x
I've listened to Free for 25 years and what I've learned or what I suppose part of the attraction is that, rhythmically, they put the emphasis in places most bands don't and that they do it consistently. Its almost a funky two-beat feel at times. Combine this with the stripped down arrangements. Magic. They reached a point of aesthetic perfection for about three years. They almost create their own sonic world.
Oh I think catch a train and this song illustrates Frasers playing, however Goin down slow and walk in my shadow illustrates kossoff! I went and saw rodgers and queen in 2008 at the O2 in london they were groovy man!! However they only did 3 bad co songs and 1 free number which was all right now (obv)
I play bass and i know every song by these guys, it's hard when you keep having to learn like 80% of them by ear, becuase there's like no fraser books or hardly any tabs!!
Thier brilliance can be measured by what they went on to achieve as individuals. Fraser with Sharks - highly under-rated band played for enjoyment rather than commercial success, Rogers and Kirke, Bad Co -say no more and who could even step onto the stage after Mercury nevermind carry the Queen repotoire. This Track and the Stealer I think illustrates all of the band members skill and soul.
dumb arsehole you wasted space ewhore they are one of the best bands i have ever seen.they blew deep purple off stage on there last live gig, truly insperational,despite major gear faliure in sydney 71.r.i.p koss.
Well said...assuming you're talking about Paul Kossoff...there's something about his guitar playing which was simple straight forward yet incredibly powerful that never fails to get me off. Sad that he died at such a young age..RIP

Classic big sounding rhythm section, epic blues-rock soloing and one of the finest sets of pipes in the business in Rodgers-it doesn't get much better than this folks.

man, imagine having been that dopey camera captain and the shites missing 80% of A.F's bass solo!!!????! you have to wonder who was the director of that huge effing gaff!!!??? what a great band!? what great understated, emotionally charged, TOTALLY ASS KICKING TALENT. the best band EVER, long live FREE!! even the name of the outfit is perfect. the people they influenced is a who's who, and FREE got less than the accolades the should have, considering they were the best band EVER!!!

Free was better than any other band at delivering the studio sound live.
luapenat 2 years ago 2
What you mean? Like trying to sound like their studio version live or they actually sound so good like as if it were a studio version?

Both

I kinda prefer improvisation... Improv is awesome, and gives you the ability of freedom of playing while live! And make the live version more unique than during in the studio...

My fav song from Free. Awesome band, shame that Paul Rodgers lost the edge off his voice.

Great clip! Lets not forget Andy Fraser's bass playing.
First time I heard his solo on Mr Big on the Free Live album I was mezmorized!!! Quality!

simon kirke rules drums, so understated and groovesome-most bands just don't get its all in the rhythm section, just float everything else on top, impala327, your comment was so apt' i feel the same about free, just the best. this vid post is awesome, never seen it before x

I've listened to Free for 25 years and what I've learned or what I suppose part of the attraction is that, rhythmically, they put the emphasis in places most bands don't and that they do it consistently. Its almost a funky two-beat feel at times. Combine this with the stripped down arrangements. Magic. They reached a point of aesthetic perfection for about three years. They almost create their own sonic world.

Oh I think catch a train and this song illustrates Frasers playing, however Goin down slow and walk in my shadow illustrates kossoff! I went and saw rodgers and queen in 2008 at the O2 in london they were groovy man!! However they only did 3 bad co songs and 1 free number which was all right now (obv)
I play bass and i know every song by these guys, it's hard when you keep having to learn like 80% of them by ear, becuase there's like no fraser books or hardly any tabs!!

Thier brilliance can be measured by what they went on to achieve as individuals. Fraser with Sharks - highly under-rated band played for enjoyment rather than commercial success, Rogers and Kirke, Bad Co -say no more and who could even step onto the stage after Mercury nevermind carry the Queen repotoire. This Track and the Stealer I think illustrates all of the band members skill and soul.

Mate guitar playing isn't judged by skill, but by the heart and soul put into the music.

Buckethead doesn't play with soul and emotion, all he does is 'shred'. and theres nothing 'emotional' about that whatsoever...

Well said...assuming you're talking about Paul Kossoff...there's something about his guitar playing which was simple straight forward yet incredibly powerful that never fails to get me off. Sad that he died at such a young age..RIP
