Freedom was an English psychedelic rock band active in the late 1960s, initially consisting of ex-members Ray Royer and Bobby Harrison from Procol Harum. The group included vocalist/bassist Steve Shirley and keyboardist Tony Marsh, who was later replaced by Mike Lease. They released two German singles and the soundtrack for the film Nerosubianco, also known as Black on White. In 1968, Royer, Shirley, and Lease departed, leading to Harrison bringing in guitarist Roger Saunders and bassist Walter Managham. This lineup pursued a hard rock sound, touring with Black Sabbath, Jethro Tull, and The James Gang. Their second album, Freedom at Last (1970), featured a notable cover of "Cry Baby Cry" by the Beatles. Further line-up changes occurred before the band disbanded in 1972.
