Heavyload by Free

Well, anyone who has listened to a classic rock station before has probably heard the hit, All Right Now. Of course, that song by Free, is probably not even close to their best. As some of you may already know, sometimes a band's best songs don't get played on the radio. A song getting popular is really up to a DJ who decides to play the song and a lot of luck and listeners.

Of course, Free is an interesting band. Their lead singer, Paul Rodgers, is considered the epitome of the rock and roll voice and has been in numerous other bands including Bad Company (remember such hits such as Bad Company, Can't Get Enough, Ready For Love, Rock 'N Roll Fantasy, etc), and more recently Queen.

In any case, one great song by Free is Heavyload from the 1970 album Fire and Water. Equal parts piano and guitar and a bluesy feel make this song very memorable and very catchy. Check it out:
