About this album

Back Street Crawler is Paul Kossoff’s lone solo album and a deeply personal blues-rock statement. Issued in 1973, it followed his years with Free and set his expressive, understated guitar tone in a more intimate setting, drawing on blues and classic rock rather than showy hard-rock force. The record features a strong cast of supporting musicians and songs such as “Time Away” and “Back Street Crawler (Don't Need You No More)”, balancing grit with melodic touch. Often viewed as a key document of Kossoff’s artistry, it captures the warmth, restraint and soul that made his playing so distinctive.

Genre: Pop & Rock
