Andy Fraser, the reclusive icon from the 70's rock band FREE and writer of the monster anthems "All Right Now" and Robert Palmer's "Every Kinda people", who surfaced recently with his album "Naked... and finally free", his response to global media reports of his death from AIDS, Fraser confirms he is battling AIDS and has come to terms with being homosexual. After being married with two daughters, who both now work with him, he has come out once again to not only proclaim he is very much alive, but intends to stay so, and catastrophic climate change doesn't help.
Fraser is standing with campaigns such as Avaaz.org, TckTckTck, Repower America, and Al Gore, to help promote the message of catastrophic climate change by releasing a worldwide free download of the song "This is the Big One", in an unprecedented move to further the message, the link to the song allows fans to forward the song to friends worldwide for FREE. http://www.andyfraser.com/bigone.html
"I love my car, electricity to power my studio and refrigerated food, but we need to find a better way, or we're all screwed. First of all we need to get a strong international agreement in Copenhagen come December 2009, but we must invest in alternative energies, and our pull heads out of the sand regarding the reality of the condition our planet is facing", said Fraser.
While putting the final touches on a new full length CD, "Andy Fraser.... on assignment", holding back the release of the long anticipated Concert footage, "Alive" with a mini-documentary, and discussing offers of a full length documentary of his life story, Fraser has felt this issue takes precedence and seems hot-headed enough to do something about it.
