RIP Andy Fraser

[AndyR]

62. At present, "unknown causes". But he was surviving cancer (since the 80s) and AIDS.

Didn't regard himself as a bassist, but he was one of my favourite bassists.

I think Free were woefully underrated.  
But this, nice...

Free were great - real musicians , great songs. RIP Andy Fraser.

[Farrell Jackson]

Yes RIP Andy Fraser. What a great bass player with a distinct sound. One thing about listening to his style is that it makes me want to not be as safe when adding bass to my own songs. Having a more active bass track is more fun and it really adds something special to music. RIP Andy....

I was lucky enough to see Free at what was Maidstone Art College. Great band. A sad loss.  Willie

This is such sad news one of my all time favourite bands and the version of Mr Big at Granada just shows why, what a four piece they where and Andy Fraser was outstanding no tricks just great music

Sad news indeed. I'm not a big Free fan but Andy Frazer sure knew how to play bass and, keep the band together.
