Kossoff ranked 51st only! I know they have Rodgers only ranked about 55th as best male vocalist! I suppose Rolling Stone`s lack of knowledge says it all and yer Andy Fraser was pretty much held in high esteem as well.
I`d rank the Free albums like so and the first three are must haves:
Fire and Water> Tons of Sobs> Heartbreaker> Free> Highway> Free at Last
Don`t bother with the Kossoff, Kirke, Tetsu and Rabbit album its a dud.
