Previously released on 2CD by Sunbeam, now issued on deluxe 180 gram virgin vinyl. This 3LP package contains the earliest known recordings of the UK's Paul Kossoff (Free), whose tragic death at 25 in 1976 robbed the rock world of one of its finest-ever blues guitarists. Taped at rehearsals with Black Cat Bones in London in 1967, the raw, lo-fi tracks find the teenaged Kossoff already a master of his instrument. Accompanied by musicians including Derek and Stuart Brookes (later to form the legendary Leaf Hound), and featuring a guest appearance from Paul Rodgers (later to form Free with Kossoff), the recordings are of considerable historical importance. They are released here for the very first time, along with a triple fold-out sleeve featuring rare photographs, full liner notes and an introduction from the band's drummer, Frank Perry, making this numbered, limited package an essential purchase for all serious rock collectors.
