Soul-rock band Free was one of the most talented and most frustratingly unsuccessful acts to come out of the post-British invasion blues boom/prog rock generation.
Big," with Fraser's wonderful sliding funk lines; and of course their justifiably famous anthem "All Right Now," set apart by its punchy beat, tension-building three-chord guitar riff, and Rodgers' just-over-the-top vocal improvisations.
By now the band was a definite presence on the UK charts, although "All Right Now" remained their only US hit.

 HOT NEW AOR/PROG/HARDROCK/METAL REVIEWS
The band borrows a lot from these bands, and also from the NWOBHM scene of the early 1980s, but nevertheless they do it very well and their new CD ‘Stand up and fight’ is definitely a very strong pure 80s Melodic Metal record.
The band managed to release 3 albums, of which ‘Kill to survive’ was their debut in 1988.
In that year the band released it’s debut, and strangely enough US radio picked up the band, and this lead to MTV video airplay of their songs, and eventually the first album ‘See you in hell’ climbed the US Billboard charts, which did not happen too often for a British Metalband.

Fans of mentioned bands should get this record as soon as possible and record companies must get in touch with this band, because this is yet another interesting unsigned German band.
The band's Alice in Chains/Harem Scarem/Queensryche sound, siffused with their own hugely melodic sensibilities remains intact, although the lyrical content is more introspective and personal than was previously apparent, 'Incomplete' being a goos example of their approach and intent.

Between bands they pumped 60s garage rock over the PA (inc. a track by the Iguanas, Iggy's first band) which was damn cool to hear.
The support band were bogged down with that big 80s drum sound and the music rather lifeless in my estimation.
The Voxx is one of those bands that seem desperate for major label recognition, their every move taped out, not a hair out of place and with songs worked out to such an extent they were beyond reanimation.

"Record Collector" (issue 259 - March 2001) - (by Tim Jones) The 70s Brit band rather than the 80s US outfit, this Mr Big were led by multi-talented vocalist/guitarist/composer Jeff Dicken, who was backed by a solid trio of musicians implementing his grandiose musical vision.
In 1975's "Sweet Silence", Dicken created a Styx-like fantasy concept album, running to 12 numbers, most of which are skewed pomp rock with hints of period pop and vaudeville.
