Despite his tragically short career, Paul Kossoff's guitar work invariably enters at the top of any discussion of classic Les Paul performances. His playing with seminal British blues-rockers Free, and on his acclaimed solo album Backstreet Crawler, exhibited a tone, skill, energy and pure musicality that put him among the pantheon of great British guitar stars such as Eric Clapton, Peter Green, Jimmy Page, Mick Ronson and Jeff Beck. Brian May of Queen was heavily influenced by Kossoff's technique and feel. ""In the early days of Queen, we loved the music of Free, and frequently played their songs in sound checks, and at home for fun,"" May said. ""Kossoff was the epitome of cool. Influence me? Ha! I would say the riff of ‘Hammer to Fall' is not a million miles away from Kossoff!""
