Was this definitely Free doing the song? The reason I ask is that Gary Moore
covered "Wishing Well" on his 'Corridors of Power' album, and maybe you heard
that version??? Definitely lotsa guitar on his (fine) version....

| It definitely was Free doing "Wishing Well" and seem very much to
be the '73 version with a bit of extra guitar thrown in.
On a double album called "Blue Soul" (a posthumous "tribute" to
Paul Kossoff), a number of Free tracks were re-mixed which tended
to emphasise Kossoff's guitar. However, "Wishing Well" was originally
recorded without Kossoff, but the extra bit doesn't sound typically
Kossoff. I could do with another listen.

| God knows how many acts have recorded this song but the best version
I've heard has been by a now defunct American band called Blackfoot.
It's on their "Strikes" album which came out about 11 years ago.
Strongly recommend this one.

| FYI
Blackfoot, fronted by Rick Medlocke, is still around. They're
touring the states this summer.

I thought you were trying to keep quiet about all those dodgy HM
records you bought back in the 70's?

| Hello Mike,
...And the Eighties too. Well, you can't classify those Indians
as H.M. for a start. Perhaps you should give the afformentioned
album an ear or two?
Apologies Free fans for the relative diagressing.
Barry.
