Passed them by at the time (Alright Now played to death on the radio) but lately started listening to Free and Paul Kossoff in particular. Interesting player, very distinct vibrato and tone, nice economical choice of notes. Might be me, but lots of Frees material sounds kinda similar...understandable since they were very young and still developing. Still on the fence...Heres a comp done by Guitar Player Magazine of his 5 greatest leads (in their opinion)....

He was really good, gone far too young.

Yeah me big Koss fan only seen him once 3 months before his fatal death at Glasgow Apollo Nov 75 when he was sadly gone fell over on stage but let's not forget Koss made and played so many tasty solos he was with Back Street Crawler when I seen him got all his stuff taken too young born sept 1950 n passed away in march 76 so sad love him

run-on-sentence!

For mine, the greatest ever guitarist. I think he was just sensational. No…SENSATIONAL.

He could easily have replaced Mick Taylor in 1975. A great guitarist gone too soon.

Paul's session with Amazing Blondel- Hole in the Head- thats some badass tone right there! Cant stop playing it....
