Об исполнителе:
Freedom is a psychedelic/progressive rock band from England, United Kingdom, that was formed in 1967. The band split up in 1972. Formed initially by Procol Harum members Ray Royer and Bobby Harrison, who had performed on the hit single A Whiter Shade Of Pale. Royer and Harrison then formed Freedom with Steve Shirley and Tony Marsh, who was immediately replaced by pianist / organist Mike Lease, releasing two German singles and the soundtrack for the Tinto Brass/Dino de Laurentiis film Attraction (original title , also known as Black on White). In 1968, Harrison entirely overhauled the group's membership, and the new line-up began recording with more of a hard rock sound, scoring tour dates with Black Sabbath, Jethro Tull, and The James Gang. They achieved great renown for their excellent version of the Beatles song Cry Baby Cry on their second album Freedom At Last. Further line-up changes occurred before the band finally splintered in 1972, with Harrison going on to Snafu (6).
