FREE-TONS OF SOBS-1969-ORIGINAL PRESS 1969 UK-ISLAND ILPS-9089. Matrices +A2/+B2. A very rare original of the second press of the cult album of the British blues prog. Tons of Sobs is the debut studio album by the British rock band Free, released by Island Records on March 14, 1969. One of the first albums in the blues-rock style. The album did not chart in the UK, but reached #197 on the Billboard Hot 200 in the US.At the time of recording the album, all the members of the band Free were very young: none of them had turned twenty yet, and bass guitarist Andy Fraser was sixteen years old at all. They achieved some success through constant touring, and their debut album was composed mainly of compositions performed at concerts. The budget allocated for the recording of the album was only 800 pounds[2]. Most of the album was recorded over a few days in October 1968. The album was originally scheduled for release in November 1968, but then postponed to early 1969 due to the late addition of a cover version of the blues composition "The Hunter" by Albert King
