Freedom - 2016 Danish Bad Afro label 9-track Full Album LP - Red Vinyl Issue

2012 Danish Bad Afro label 9-track full album LP - the 9th album by iconic Copenhagen based acid rockers fronted by Uffe Lorenzen - also the main mover behind Spids Nøgenhat, Dragontears and On Trial.

Freedom is released after a more than four years hiatus spent with Lorenzos band Spids Nøgenhat - which won two Danish Grammies for the album ?Kommer Med Fred?: Best rock album of the year and Best live band of the year.

The title Freedom reflects on the current state of our society and how it affects us all - consciously or not. Lorenzo Woodrose states: ?The inspiration for the album came from the title track, a cover we have been playing around with for about a year. Mostly known for the version Richie Havens improvised on Woodstock in 1969, it is actually a much older song, known as a gospel tune, a negro spiritual or a "slave song". This expression gave me the idea to write modern day slave songs, so all the songs on the new album deal with mind control, brainwash, hamster wheels, slavery and oppression?.

All Baby Woodrose albums have a different vibe and this time there has been an analogue approach to recording the nine songs. The whole album is recorded and mixed on tape, givng it a very rockband live-in-the-studio type of feel. This means no cut and paste and a minimal amount of overdubs. The album is produced by Anders Onsberg and Baby Woodrose in the STC studio in Copenhagen and mastered by Flemming Rasmussen at Sweet Silence.

Vinyl is pressed as a red vinyl pressing and has custom picture labels - comes with lyric insert - picture cover. This version was issue the same day as the black vinyl issue - which was primarily sold by the label - never the less regarded as the 2nd issue.
