Freedom Blues - Little Richard

If you leave America for too long you might get a little of this week’s password:

Freedom Blues

In honor of America’s Semiquincentennial Anniversary, the liberties we enjoy daily, and our Red, White & Blues Bash, our password of the night for July 4th, 2026 is “Freedom Blues.”

The song “Freedom Blues” by Little Richard opened his 1970 self-produced album, The Rill Thing. The Billboard Top 50 Single features a message of brotherhood, unity, and inclusivity with a catchy, funky rhythm, bold, out-front bass and guitar and Richard’s unmistakably raspy, raw voice declaring that:

“ Now everybody, everybody, everybody's gotta be free, y'all!”
