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.

Excited to announce a re-mastered version of 'Free' will be released on the 30th of August ❤️ Pre-save following the link in bio and listen to the new version of 'Cry For Help' now!

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.
