Free: Highway :1970
This is the album that features the bands most beautiful and heartfelt ballads such as Be My Friend, Love You So and Soon I Will Be Gone.
In this video, I look back at the album and review it plus recommend which CD Remaster you should own.

Highway came hot on the heels of their big chart album 'Fire and Water' which also included the global hit 'All Right Now. Unfortunately, it was a flop at the time quite possible because of the very poor album design which left many music fans thinking it was by a band called Highway!

Free are one of my favourite bands and have been part of the soundtrack to my life since I was very young.

There is a point in nearly every song Free recorded where they reach the end of the last chorus and Paul Rodgers just let’s go and ad-libs from the heart.
Be My Friend is a perfect example. It is a love song full of yearning and passion. Love You So is another song that takes the angst up a notch when the ad-libs start.
Following close behind Rodgers's voice is Paul Kossoff who matches the words with his soulful and heartfelt guitar playing.
The songs and emotions captured in these songs are timeless and even more remarkable when you think of their age at the time.

If you are a fan of blues-rock, Bad Company, Gov't Mule, Lynryd Skynryd, then this is an essential album.
