Free - Live In Santa Monica 1971 captures the legendary British rock band at the height of their powers during a spirited performance at the Santa Monica Civic Centre in January 1971. Broadcast by DJ Elliot Mass on KUSC FM, this recording showcases Paul Rodgers, Paul Kossoff, Andy Fraser, and Simon Kirke delivering raw and passionate renditions of classic Free material in front of an enthusiastic California crowd. The set highlights the band's dynamic blend of rock and blues, anchored by soulful vocals and searing guitar work.
This release stands out for featuring several live versions of songs rarely heard in concert recordings, including "The Highway Song" and "Soon I’ll Be Gone," as well as piano flourishes that add depth to the band's acclaimed sound. With a setlist that draws heavily from their celebrated "Fire and Water" and "Highway" albums, Live In Santa Monica 1971 offers fans a unique glimpse into Free’s powerful stage presence during their early 1971 US tour.
