Critic's Review
Ben Davies, All Music Guide
Polygram's attempt at a Free compilation is the poorest effort to date. The album is a mere 14 tracks long, and excludes the band's most recognized track "All Right Now." While the track listing is by no means dire, it offers nothing new over the many other Free best of's available. The obvious highlights include "Fire and Water," "I'm a Mover," and "Heartbreaker," while less known tracks such as "The Stealer," "Heavy Load," and "Walk in My Shadow" will delight those not familiar with the bands various styles. Overall, however, Island's The Free Story or the five-CD compilation Songs of Yesterday are far wiser purchases than Walk in My Shadow.
