LPCDreissues: Looking forward to the past

Freedom recorded the soundtrack to this film by Dino De Laurentiis in 1968. At this time the band was still a foursome (they later became a trio) led by drummer Bobby Harrison, veteran of early Procol Harum. Freedom, a British psych band, characterized by the prominent organ playing of Mike Lease, became a very popular live act during the late sixties-early seventies. This soundtrack showcases the band's excellent songwriting talent (resembling early Traffic at some places on the album) and includes 3 bonus tracks (alternate takes of "The Better Side", "The Butt Of Deception" and "Born Again").
