How did I miss this |
|
As a child of the sixties I cut my teeth on the British Blues bands. How did I miss miss these guys? Of course I'd heard "Alright Now", who hasn't? But I never looked past that small sample of this bands work. Obviously I'm no expert and I have not idea how this collection stands up to any other, but I can say I'm in love with what's on these two discs. Intense and more important, soulful, they were an amazing band. Better late than never. |

THIS IS THE BEST FREE COMPILATION OUT THERE! |
The Chronciles double CD import is actually a superior collection to the other better known double comp called "Molten Gold- The Anthology".
1.It's got a few more tracks.
2.The sound is equally good.
3.The booklet is well researched and informative
4.The price is better.
Yes they chose the single version of "All Right Now" but I have no beef with that. Although the 45 rpm rendition is a minute shorter it is a FAR SUPERIOR mix. The guitars are louder, and the bass and drums punch more!
The 2008audio headline says "Limited Edition". That may mean that this release will be hard to find some day.
And of course the price would then go UP. |

A real gem with a major flaw |
|
This compolation is pretty good, the live tracks sound very good considering the period the recordings were done but there is one huge problem here. They have chosen to include only the single version of "All Right Now" which runs over a minute shorter that the LP version. They could have easily included both and gotten 5 stars had they done so. Buyer beware |

The Gold Standard of "Classic Rock." |
|
First, it's not a "Millenium Collection" rip-off with 20 minutes of music. It's two CDs, 35 tracks, every essential single and album track, plus 5 live tracks. It's got a nicely-annotated 16-page booklet. The first thing you realize is how many "classic rock bands" RIPPED...THIS...BAND...OFF. Also, the vastly underrated Paul Kossoff really shines here. The mastering is as clean as it's ever likely to be, given the recording technology of the era. Every other Free compilation pales in comparison to this one. "All Right Now," "Fire & Water," "Oh I Wept," "Mr. Big," "The Stealer," "The Hunter," "Wishing Well"...they're all here, and they sound great. |
