Free waren eine der britischen Bands, die den Hard Rock auf den britischen Inseln vorantrieben. Trotz ihrer nur kurzen Existenz waren sie aufgrund ihres minimalistischen British Blues ein riesiger Einfluss auf Bands wie Bad Company und Foreigner.
Der Nachfolger zum selbstbetitelten Debüt, „Fire And Water“ schlug sich bis auf Platz Vier der Billboard Hot 100 des Jahres 1970 durch. Die Gitarre von Paul Kossof und die unglaubliche Stimme von Paul Rodgers machten Free zu einer der besten Bands dieser Ära.
Rezensionen
,,Mit diesem, ihrem dritten Album, gelang Free 1970 der Durchbruch. Sowohl in ihrer britischen Heimat (#2) als auch in den USA (#17) konnten sie mit ihrem herzhaften Blues-Rock in die Charts einziehen, spätestens nach ihrem Auftritt beim Isle Of Wight Festival 1970 vor 600.000 Zuschauern wurde “All Right Now” zu ihrem Markenzeichen." (Good Times, Oktober/November 2013)
Free emerged from the British blues boom with a tight, muscular style that framed Paul Rodgers' throaty voice. Guitarist Paul Kossoff provides the perfect foil with incisive, measured solos exemplified by his contribution to "All Right Now". This successful single transformed the group from club to festival status. Free's unhurried, careful intensity is captured perfectly on the album's title track and "Oh I Wept", two songs charged with emotion. Where many contemporaries tended towards excess, Free implied a resonant power, particularly through Andy Fraser's liquid bass work, which weaves between the melody lines, rather than asserting them. FIRE AND WATER is a high spot in heavy rock; rather than merely asserting masculine qualities, this album also shows a rare vulnerability.
