Bethel Woods, NY. June 26th 2010.

Free Ride is a song written by Dan Hartman and performed by the The Edgar Winter Group. The single, engineered by Jim Reeves, was a top 20 U.S. hit in 1973. The song is featured in the movies Air America, Dazed and Confused, Jack Frost, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie, Days of Thunder and in the video games Prey and Cars. It is also used in the trailer for College Road Trip, as well as the trailer for the 2009 film The Damned United. It was covered by R&B group Tavares on their 1975 album In the City, and Christian rock band Audio Adrenaline (1995). Hartman himself covered the song later in his career. Hartman's cover as a solo artist appear in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie. The song is sometimes mistakenly attributed to the Doobie Brothers, perhaps because of the similarity in its style to their works.

The 45 version is a different recording than the LP version, but both versions clock in at 3:08.
