First-ever complete anthology of splinter group from the original Procol Harum line-up. Includes all five of the band’s albums plus singles, out-takes and alternative versions.

Just as ‘A Whiter Shade Of Pale’ was establishing itself as the definitive summer-of-1967 hit, new kids on the block Procol Harum acrimoniously parted company with guitarist Ray Royer and drummer Bobby Harrison.

Royer and Harrison used their Procol pay-off to assemble a new band that they pointedly christened Freedom.

The original Freedom line-up recorded the soundtrack for lurid Italian art-house film Nerosubianco (AKA Black And White) as well as issuing a couple of non-album singles before a dissatisfied Harrison put together a revised power trio line-up.

The new-look Freedom made a second album, ‘Freedom At Last’, that also failed to gain a UK release before moving on from their original psychedelic sound to adopt a heavier, bluesier approach.

After three further albums (including two for Vertigo) and tours with Black Sabbath and Jethro Tull, Harrison pulled the plug in late 1972 in order to become frontman for Snafu.

‘Born Again: The Complete Recordings 1967-72’ collects all of Freedom’s work In one handy package, with the band’s five albums joined by stand-alone singles, alternative versions and out-takes. Housed in a stylish clamshell box, the package features miniature facsimile covers of all five albums as well as numerous rare photos and a new 5000 word essay on the band.
