| - Free was an English rock band formed in London in 1968, best known for their 1970 signature song %22All Right Now%22. They disbanded in 1973 and lead singer Paul Rodgers went on to become a frontman of the band Bad Company along with Simon Kirke on drums. Lead guitarist Paul Kossoff formed Back Street Crawler and died from drug-induced heart failure at the age of 25 in 1976. Bassist Andy Fraser formed Sharks.The band was famed for its sensational live shows and nonstop touring. However, early studio albums did not sell very well – until the release of Fire and Water which featured the massive hit %22All Right Now%22. The song helped secure them a place at the huge Isle of Wight Festival 1970 where they played to 600,000 people.By the early 1970s, Free was one of the biggest-selling British blues rock groups; by the time the band dissolved in 1973, they had sold more than 20 million albums around the world and had played more than 700 arena and festival concerts. %22All Right Now,%22 remains a rock staple, and had been entered into ASCAP's %22One Million%22 airplay singles club.Rolling Stone has referred to the band as %22British hard rock pioneers%22. The magazine ranked Rodgers No. 55 in its list of the %22100 Greatest Singers of All Time%22, while Kossoff was ranked No. 51 in its list of the %22100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time%22.Free was signed to Island Records in the UK and A&M Records in North America. Both labels became part of the PolyGram group in 1989, then Universal Music Group in 1998; UMG now controls the band's catalogue worldwide.
