Kossoff/Kirke/Tetsu/Rabbit

Composed of guitarist Paul Kossoff, drummer Simon Kirke, bassist Tetsu Yamauchi, and keyboardist John “Rabbit” Bundrick, Kossoff/Kirke/Tetsu/Rabbit produced one self-titled record in the first ’70s. In ways, it had been an interim/aspect project free of charge, produced by Kossoff and Kirke after Free of charge split up (temporarily, since it proved) in springtime 1971. While Free of charge vocalist Paul Rodgers performed for some time with Tranquility and Free of charge bassist Andy Fraser produced Toby, Kossoff/Kirke/Tetsu/Rabbit documented an recording for Isle in fall months 1971. By enough time it had been released in Apr 1972, however, Free of charge got re-formed, with Yamauchi and Bundrick themselves becoming a member of Free for your group’s final recording, 1973’s Heartbreaker. The Kossoff Kirke Tetsu Rabbit recording itself suffered through the predictable complications of much less amazing vocals and songwriting than Totally free had featured. Therefore, regardless of the top-flight music artists included, it’s a footnote towards the Totally free story, with a far more laid-back and much less bluesy feel compared to the early Totally free albums which Kossoff and Kirke got played.
