Free Again: The 1970 Sessions
Alex Chilton
Released:
Jan 2012
Label:
OMNIVORE RECORDINGS
Free Again is a crucial document, shedding as it does light on that shadowy phase in young Alex Chilton's career during which his time with The Box Tops was drawing to a close but before he had teamed up with Chris Bell. These passionately loose, some would say almost tossed off, recordings are closest in spirit to the post-Big Star Like Flies On Sherbert. This is Chilton filtering roots music (soul, blues, country) through his eccentric rock 'n' roll fantasy. The Stones might've written "Jumpin' Jack Flash," but with the menacing version herein, Chilton makes it his own -- pure dark energy.
