Stanford Band[edit]

"All Right Now" became nationally famous when the Stanford Band adopted it as its signature tune

"All right now" is, of course, a rock standard, in the same league as "Jumpin' Jack Flash" and "Back in Black". I suspect that someone from the Stanford Band is doing some self-promotion here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.20.97.190 (talk) 23:41, 25 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Trivia[edit]

The opening, closing, and middle of *all* Steve Miller records 'sound very similar' to other records. cf. Led Zepplin. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 206.140.113.126 (talk) 18:47, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

UK Chart[edit]

This claims that the single reached number one in thr UK, but according to UK official chart company it never reached number l [[1]], and according to polyhex.com ( [[2]] ) it highest rating was number 2 in June 1970.

If there was a seperate rock music chart for the UK then a citation should be added and it should specify that in the information box, not simply listing it as reaching number one.--Hammard 14:25, 27 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Does not cite references tag[edit]

So...is what is wanted is some kind of bar code showing that "All Right Now" belongs to Free, and was later played by the LSJUMB? Okay. Someone someday will provide a reference for these exceedingly commonly known facts. In the meantime, the tag clutters up an otherwise perfectly fine page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.123.159.110 (talk) 04:18, 1 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]


British Music Industry Multi Million Award[edit]

This does not appear to exist, although widely cited in relation to All Right Now. It is probably confused with the BMI London awards where the US organisation Broadcast Music Inc. honours (honors) members of the UK organisation the Performing Rights Society, on whose behalf it collects royalties for airplay in the USA. Among the awards are the Million Air awards which in October 2006 included an award for 3 million air plays of All Right Now in the USA. The PRS themselves do not appear to fund award ceremonies.

Written with Queen?[edit]

However, Paul Rodgers stated whilst performing with Queen that he wrote the lyric of "All Right Now".

This song was released in 1970, before Rodgers had probably even heard of Queen/Smile (their name back then). When was the song written? 80.101.212.102 (talk) 14:16, 26 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

  • In some languages your interpretation could be correct. In English there is no suggestion that he wrote the lyric while performing with Queen; if that were the case, the word "that" would precede "whilst performing" instead of preceding "he wrote".

Personnel and instrumentation are incomplete[edit]

This song has a tuba on it. At least one article on the net suggests that Andy Fraser played it on the Free recordings. Can anyone confirm this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 198.164.42.3 (talk) 02:44, 23 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

#4 OR #1 DISCREPENCY[edit]

What I am about to bring to your attention is the kind of thing which brings Wikipedia Criticism by Wiki haters (i.e. Instructors, Adjuncts & Professors). In the box which is titled Chart Position under US - Billboard Hot 100 "All Right Now" (ARN) is listed as being a #1 hit. There is a reference number (16) which takes you to Allmusic NOT Billboard. Allmusic lists "All Right Now" as a #4 hit. In the Wiki article itself the first paragraph states ARN is a #4 hit in the USA. Joel Whitburn in 'Top 40 Hits' states Free's ARN was on the Billboard charts for 13 weeks peaking @ #4; and that's good enough for me. Whoever is responsible for this Wiki article needs to vet the information, including reference numbers. Contradictory information in the very same Wiki-article is embarrassing; it happens much too much. 184.76.56.97 (talk)JSJR 02122015 — Preceding undated comment added 10:39, 12 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
