Rick Astley is releasing an expanded reissue of his third studio album ‘Free’.

Originally released in 1991, the LP marked a departure from his work as part of Stock Aitken Waterman’s Hit Factory, leaving behind his pop-driven sound in favour of a more introspective blend of soul and R&B influences.

Featuring collaborations with Elton John, Michael McDonald and Mark King, it features singles such as Cry For Help and Move Right Out, both of which demonstrate a mature new direction.

For the new reissue, the record has been remastered with 18 bonus tracks, 7 of which are previously unreleased, including the studio track Call Me.

‘Free’ is out August 30 and available to pre-order from the official Rick Astley store.
