Simon Kirke and Paul Rogers were on top of the world; their song ‘All Right Now” was climbing the charts, their band Free couldn’t find enough dates to book. Unfortunately life mimics rock and roll, and the highs of being so cool didn’t last long. When Free broke up, Paul and Simon began to look for the next big thing.

“Rock N’ Roll Fantasy” is an important song in that it appeared as the band found itself in a low period, released from the Desolation Angels LP in 1979.
