Listen....I am 60 years old, and saw Free live several times in the 70's at the Liverpool Stadium. We are so lucky that Paul Rodgers is still alive and kicking and belting out rock anthems like only he can........so much talent of that era died far too young - keep rocking Paul!!!
Hewitt Jim I'm 23, our lass is 21 and we're into all this, rock Is still alive and kicking aha, every Saturday night in Newcastle we attend a rock night at a popular bar awesome atmosphere with all the old rockers dancing
True but I still prefer Kos's playing & tone on this - check out Free's version at the Isle of Wight festival in the early 1970s on youtube - it's sublime. ;) This one is a bit too fast for my tastes too (nothing wrong with speeding up songs but the original version sounds better to me).
I agree but for me he is THE greatest voice, bar none! Oviously everone's got their own opinion on that but for me no rock singer has ever had as much soul in their voice as Paul Rogers. He's simply the bomb!!!
Thank you for this smokin' version. God bless and keep my friend Bill "Gumby" Meloni who we lost twenty eight years ago already. This was his favorite song. Rest in Peace, my brother because you belong to the ages now as does Holbrook, Larry, Jack and Les. To you gentlemen, the friends of my youth.
thanks for putting this on.. still a classic and one of the best rock tunes around. i'm a queen fane, when he joined brian and roger, it was my birthday. 3 of my rock hero's together on one album..i'm alright now, baby, i'm alright now.....
Always good to see comments made by free fans ,think they are real lovers of music .Been reading remarks on other videos about not likeing the video or musical snobery about when they were born .WHO GIVES A F... . listen to this mans voice ,truly a god of music .
Never heard that story about Clapton and Schon, but i dont doubt it. Schon is an all time great, he is easily top 15-20 best of all time if not lower than that. I listened to him everyday for 2 years and he inspired me to play the guitar and now ive been playing for 5 years.
To see them on my (18) birthday at the Fabulous Forum in Cali was a god send.....saw them appear one more time with the original lineup intact...took my son to see Paul an Queen at the Greek theater in 2006 Yeah!!!!!!!
hi frozenfish, I see we finally have two excellent versions of Joe Fabulous posted. I love this song, Slash and Neal give it such a rich depth and enegy to this song. Thanks for the post
Wow! I've only ever heard Blackfoot sing Wishing Well. I LOVE Paul Rodgers. Bad Company was my GO TO concert back in the day. Saw them every single time they came to Houston. Wish I had known that Paul Rodgers was on the Rock Legends Cruise last year. Damn!
@PETERILEY07 nothing better said.....voted best rock vocalist by his peers four years running in the 70's, Paul Rodgers is the best......period. Free, Bad Co., The Firm....you name the music....I'll listen! He's thee best!
Hes definately up there with all the very best vocalist in the rock world. yes I grew up with Free and Bad Company and have always loved Paul Roger's sound.....................awsome singer with awsom bands. Nuff said!
Paul Rodgers, one of the finest voices in Rock n' Roll. Odd, I would have thought this was a cover of Blackfoot's song. But then, Free and Blackfoot were both very busy in the mid '70's. Personally, (and I love Paul Rodgers, don't get me wrong...) - give me that "rampant male" Rickey Medlocke and his band Blackfoot on this one... :).

I'm not a big Journey fan.... but Neal Schon has to be one of the last great classic rock guitarists, right up there with Slash and a handful of others. And Paul Rodgers - one of the most underrated rock vocalists ever.And - Wishing Well is one of the absolute best albums in the classic rock canon - Free's Heartbreaker - their last ditch attempt to keep it all together. Seriously - if you're a classic rock fan, go out and buy this right now, if you haven't already done so.
Free were class, I'm 40, always listened thanks to my dad...same old story, like Zepp, Stones and Hendrix, most of the album material is removed cause of copyright, sad state of affairs.......
This fantastic man is the only Guy that has mantained a great voice.Even Robert Plant and Roger Daltry couldn't get that same sound from their peak but Paul Rodgers goes on and on. Fabulous
Hi Frozen missed ya I finally got some kickin speakers Logitech z2300 for my birthday so I can Really appreciate the fantastic music you posted. Thankyou

Im 73 and still rocking. Agree, Paul Rodgers is great. I'm so glad he's still going strong. They just don't make music like this anymore.
Hewitt Jim cc
Yesssss!
Paul Rodgers is the vocal equivalent of a Les Paul through a Marshall, perfect rock tone.
Brilliant comment!
This is one of those songs that is so awesome it makes you sad just cause you know you're going to have to stop listening to it :')
One of rock's best vocalists, not to mention the great guitarists.
True but I still prefer Kos's playing & tone on this - check out Free's version at the Isle of Wight festival in the early 1970s on youtube - it's sublime. ;) This one is a bit too fast for my tastes too (nothing wrong with speeding up songs but the original version sounds better to me).
A truly great guitarist...
Forty years and he still sounds INCREDIBLE!
I agree but for me he is THE greatest voice, bar none! Oviously everone's got their own opinion on that but for me no rock singer has ever had as much soul in their voice as Paul Rogers. He's simply the bomb!!!
The greatest rock vocalist of all time, and I don't say that lightly. He's THE FUCKING BEST plain and simple!
I hear you brother- it makes me sad too.
For a song to create such emotion, it's
got to be a great one.
Long live Paul Rogers!
The voice on Paul Rogers man, wow. He definitely still got it
What a voice! Paul is #1 in my book. So much passion!

Amazing! This guy still has a great voice after 30 years in rockn roll. A legend!!!!
Shit, you know that good times are a comin' when Paul Rodgers, Slash and Neal Schon get together!!!

@ David Robson........You took the words out of my mouth.
Never heard that story about Clapton and Schon, but i dont doubt it.
Schon is an all time great, he is easily top 15-20 best of all time if not lower than that.
I listened to him everyday for 2 years and he inspired me to play the guitar and now ive been playing for 5 years.
