    First saw Paul in London in 1972. I was totally hooked! The best voice on the planet, then and now.

    I was 12 years in 1972 and heavily in to bolan and Bowie . Then I started to take notice of my next door neighbour's music coming through the wall . Floyd , zeppelin, sabbath, wishbone ash, the groundhogs .I made friends and spent hours sitting in his bedroom freaking out to all this amazing music . One day he played me heartbreaker , my god my life was changed for ever . God bless you paul , the voice of the seventies and beyond. I'm now 60 and still cry every time I play my free albums And remembering those heady days listening to free with my life long friend , god bless you dave

      I was 15 in 1972 & loved free, my favourite albums were Highway & Fire & Water. The song 'Be my friend' & 'Love you so' brings back so many happy memories of the 70's. Still listen to them today.

    My vocal influence since 1983: my first band played several Free and Bad Co songs.
    The first Bad Co album is still a favourite of mine all these years later, and Wishing Well by Free is a song I've sung in every band I've joined.
    Thank you Paul Rodgers.

    Written by Roosevelt Jamison. First recorded by O.V. Wright for 1964 release. Otis Redding recorded it in 1965. Many have tried, but no one has topped Otis' version. Paul Rodgers did it well, using Otis' arrangement.
