Like many of Adamson’s records, the album is a genre odyssey that jumps from garage rock, to blues, to new-wave pop, with the adventurous brass section injecting an acid jazz touch. His overwhelming desire to examine cultural shifts and embrace them within the quest to improve oneself that often centres in Adamson’s art is clearly present in I Will Set You Free. This subsequently makes it a quintessential Barry Adamson record that fits right in with the back catalog. The release of I Will Set You Free follows the limited edition reissues of Stranger On The Sofa and Back To The Cat.
