@zdwaffles agree - though it should be the other way around, as hole in the sky was released later :) but yeah, both are really good songs! sabbath is my favorite band :)

who doesn"t disagree, free were best listened to live,especially in sunderland where they are worshipped still.the hunter and mr big were their encores and they always brought the house down.still no better songs to sing than theirs,simple lyrics but what impact !!!!
I have found the BEST kossoff soundalike I have followed Free since they started and this japanese guy is the ONLY man to sound like the great little man type in tonsofsobsnaomi and be ready to hear the best version of the hunter since Free themselves
@CoC350 Absolutely!! maybe not the speed merchant of the guitar styles of later years but My God he could play the blues, and make the Free sound so full and warm.
Few guitarists if any had his 'feel' for the music. One of a kind was Paul...sadly missed
Albert King played for STAX records BRO!!! the house band was Booker T and The MG's. They toured with him recorded etc. and this is really there song, Sorry my Blues is in order. And actually as great as Albert is, He didnt wright much of his big hits.
I met Albert and Booker T on their 71 Stax tour, Albert recorded a lot of covers , but that's to his credit, all his albums have memorable tracks, that's why there are so many Albert covers out there, Born Under A BAd Sign, I'll Play the Blues For You, etc....
i`m with wolfatnight all the way, saw free 3 times early 70s nothing comes close, koss still makes my hair stand up now with his solos, greatest band ever
THATS ROCK, bitches - no one touches FREE, not Zeppelin, no one - no one does it better - I'll take em over anyone, and FUCK you if you dont like it - that is all - thank you
It's ironic that nowadays we'd have a video of a band playing, but all the best stuff was played 30 years ago IMO. I hate that there's so little footage of Free, and nothing of them playing The Hunter. I'd loved to see Koss's face playing this solo. CLASSIC! Thanks, it made my day...
I wonder if Angus Young learned his vibrato technique from this guy?
I'm ashamed to say that I only heard this song for the first time tonight.
It won't be the last I know that. When the sun comes up my amp is lighting up!

Despite all the comments about white bands who stole this riff, this was done by Albert King a long time ago.
