Tman5293 Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Why aren't rock music like this anymore? Because Justin Beiber exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesguitar65 Posted December 20, 2010 Author Share Posted December 20, 2010 What a great lost indeed. Paul Kossoff died in his 20s Can't imagine on how much more he would of influenced and contributed to rock music and guitar playing had he lived much longer.

surfpup Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 There is much live footage of Free, unfortunately. That clip was from the Isle of Wight in 1970 - estimated attendance 600,000. If you are a fan, you should buy the Free Forever DVD. It has all the known video footage of Free, Isle of Wight included. They were truly a great band that could have been huger had not a few events conspired against their success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocky4 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Because of us, the public, and MTV. We would rather see our music than listen to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjay777 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 Kossoff brought the best out of that LP. Nice post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaxson50 Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 I saw them on the 22nd of Aug. 1969. They were the first act on the USA Blind Faith concert tour, the were billed as The Free, the second act was Delaney & Bonnie and Friends (which included Leon Russell on piano) Then Blind Faith....after they finished their set all three bands came on stage and played a extra set, the police finally shut it down around 1:30 am... It was the best $6.50 I ever spent! Those days are gone forever... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pippy Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 I've said it many times before but I'll say it again anyway. PK was the reason I picked up a guitar. In the same way some people remember what they were doing when they heard of the death of JFK I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing when I learned of Kossoff's death. Tragic loss. P.
