“Freedom Blues” was one of Richard’s later career hits. The main type on the German release looks to be Robertas Raised Shadow variant. The Dutch sleeve has Koloss in all caps.

The photograph used on the German single cover served as a basis for the illustration on the cover of his Right Now album (1973).
