First Time Reaction | Free - All Right Now | Reaction 

I am glad that you liked the song, this is the music that I was brought up on!

Free was a short lived band but for those few years it was the best live band around. Just magical.

Paul Rodgers is one of the standards by which other vocalists are measured. Crazy good!

The bassist, Andy Fraser, was 17 years old when this was recorded. Imagine having the confidence at that age to hand fire for over half the song before blending into the mix, just at the optimal point. From memory, I think he wrote this tune and "Wishing Well", which is also excellent.

I saw Bad Company a few years ago and Paul Rogers voice is second to none..still sounds amazing and looks great...it was so much fun and yah both Free and Bad Co were amazing bands..loved this reaction. thank you

When you said you didn't need to hear any more of the song, I thought, "Oh boy, wait til you hear that bass...."

Four very young musicians playing simple parts while listening to each other. Beautifully constructed and executed perfectly. I know Bad Company were way bigger in the US but this little band is damn near perfect.

Everyone was showing off on this song!

I became a huge Bad Co fan as a teen back in the day then I discovered Free Check out the songs, “ Easy On My Soul “- “Wishing Well” -or “ Mr.Big”.

Same guy. Paul Rodgers sang lead for Free and Bad Company.

'WISHING WELL ' Another banger my friend 🧡

I think the guitar solo is just a little slice of perfection

You want some more Free bangers? "Mr Big" has that classic bass line, "Heartbreaker" got that sexy groove.

as usual, you're good taste comes to the front. I agree, this is one of the greatest rock songs ever. Simplicity sincerity and soulfulness was what Carlos Santana said mattered. To me, this song measures up. Thanks again for a great channel and for being yourself.great great things happen.

Paul Rogers and Simon Kirk of this band went on to form Bad Company

An overlooked BANGER: “Never any Reason” by a 70’s band called Head East. You’re welcome!

Banger

Love this song ...

Free was 1/2 of Bad Company, actually the other way around would be more accurate

Absolute belter..always remind me of my friend's band who played a lot of Free and Bad Company. Wishing Well is another belter. Fire and Water is a cracking album and to think they were so so young..all teenagers The group played their first gig on 19 April 1968 at the Nag's Head pub, at the junction of York Road and Plough Road in Battersea, London. They were all teenagers - bass player Fraser was 15 years old, lead guitarist Kossoff was 17, and lead singer Rodgers and drummer Kirke were 18!!. In November the same year they released their first album Tons of Sobs. Amazing. As a teenager in the 80s i remember discovering Free and this tune is certainly a banger

Crazy how young they were

Wikipedia: For a short time, Free were alongside Led Zeppelin as among the highest grossing British acts, though Free's status was not sustained. Lead singer Paul Rodgers: When his friend Jimmy Page started to come around to his house, guitar in hand and Led Zeppelin at an end, the duo's first live pairing was on the US ARMS (Action Research into Multiple Sclerosis) Tour, which had first been mooted by Eric Clapton and, besides Rodgers and Page, would include Jeff Beck, Joe Cocker, Steve Winwood and others.

Ah, this brings back memories of driving to the beach. Windows down singing this song at the top of our lungs on a hot summer day! The 70's were a creative hotbed for music. I think you would also like Slow Ride from Foghat. Cheers 🇨🇦

Great to see you discover Free, the best blues-rock ever. Try Mr Big from the same album.

Its alright now to be free.

Lead singer, Paul Rodgers, is a Sagittarius like me (same month and day as me actually). Nothing is more important to our astrological sign than freedom. This song came out in 1970. Astrology was HUGE in the 70s.

Great song. High school years, then out on my own. It's too bad they broke up but they will be remembered with this song. Good job on your reaction.

This is definitely a jam and the 60s through the early 90s were the best

Great song to this day would fare with the best! You have found Paul Rodger’s! I can’t wait to see your review to Fire and Water! Just as great in a different way.

It was always playing on the radio when I was in High School back in early 80s love it.

Paul Rodgers is also the lead singer in Bad Company.

This reaction is a good time. I was kinda down, but I'm alright now 😁💯🔥

OMG!!! the album ‘fire and water’ STAYS in my cd rotation. for them to have been so young, they sang and played like old souls because this album was funky as hell. my jam? “remember.” too funky.

Great tune!

BANGER ALL DAY LONG!!!

Paul Rodgers invented "gangster"

Paul Rogers is great at ad libbing in a song. Does it all the time with Bad Company.

I saw Free in concert, opening for Traffic. I love Traffic, but Free stole the show!

There's an EPIC live video of Free doing Fire and Water here in RU-vid!!

Took me back to junior high ❤

Great reaction!! But pleasr can you do more Queen? Anything from Wembley 86 is phenomenal! Try Tie Your Mother Down, In The Lap Of The Gods...or Now Im Here where Roger completely dominates that drum kit! ❤️👑🎸🎹🥁🎤

Awesome band and precursor to the band Bad Company. Speaking of Bad Company, I highly recommend you check out Good Living Gone Bad - 100% total banger!

The Fire and Water album has some bangers: This, the title track, Mr Big and Heavy Load are all fab. So too is Wishing Well. Of course, Bad Company progressed the sound more but it was missing that Paul Kossoff liquid gold sustain on guitar

This particular version is a re-record. The original had a harder edge but this is still almost identical but more polished. And as for “one other big record” Eh? They had loads over here in the UK. My Brother Jake,Wishing Well,Mr Big,Fire and Water (that one so good that the soul legend Wilson Pickett covered it) and plenty more. Dive headfirst into THIS rabbit hole mate.

Great reaction!

Bro I'm digging your reactions! Let me suggest another new favorite song...Billy Squire "The Stroke" Mad love from Oklahoma!

Love Free, still have my original vinyl ad the CD in the car. I always thought that this song sounded more like Bad Co. than Free tho. It has the more polished sound of Bad Co. whereas Free was more raw and bluesy. I love Bad Co. because I love Paul Rodgers, but I kinda prefer the rougher edges of Free

Paul Rodgers is up there with Robert Plant. Bad Company is a deep Rabbit Hole! Pull-up Paul’s page…will blow your mind!

Now listen to fire and water.

Paul Rodgers was lead singer for both, all right now and Bad Company...perhaps, the reason you enjoy both bands...🙂

Free was such an amazing band and produced so many bangers in their short run. They were a young band but Paul Rodgers has one of the best voices in rock. Check out their song "Mr. Big" live. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uyle6hZLxRc.htmlsi=Vh1nP5eDnyEgibWx

Are you listening to the lyrics? She's a sassy girl.
