Rock 'n' roll legend Suzi Quatro will release her new album, "Freedom", on March 27.
The official music video for the LP's first single, the title track, can be seen below.
In a recent interview with Dawn Osborne of TotalRock, Quatro stated about how she chose "Freedom" to be the first single and title of the upcoming album: "I was going through the master mixes, and the album was gonna be called 'Choose Yourself', which was the top song for a long time.
So I'm going through the mixes to approve, and this 'Freedom', it just kept coming out and smacking me in the face.
And I went, 'Okay, this is the first single, this is the title of the album.' And have you ever seen and heard a picture and a song, and a title that all says exactly the same thing? Doesn't it scream it to you freedom?", Suzi also talked about the "Freedom" album cover, saying: "Once I decided on that track for the single, I actually had a vision — [it was] so strange — a vision of this album cover and the single cover.
And I couldn't get it out of my mind.
So I put out little notes to all my people who photographed me for years.
I said, 'Here's what I'm looking for.' And so I have a girl in Australia who's done me for — I don't know — since the '80s.
And she had a photograph of me from the back with my bass on, on stage.
And the art team then got together and created the image around it.
And it's exactly the way I saw it in my mind's eye.
And it's important.", Elaborating on the lyrical inspiration for "Freedom", Suzi said: "I'm 75.
I have achieved freedom in myself, in my attitude.
I've dropped my excess baggage.
I don't have that anymore.
I don't have anything to prove.
I'm comfortable in my skin.
So it's a very important personal thing.
Also, in this world we live in, I say freedom — what is more precious than freedom? Nothing.", Since first bursting on to the scene with her classic No.
1 hit singles "Can The Can" and "Devil Gate Drive", Quatro has sold over 55 million records worldwide and is recognised as a true rock 'n' roll legend and pioneering icon who never did "gender".
The album includes a duet with fellow Detroit native Alice Cooper, on a rocking duet of the MC5 classic "Kick Out The Jams".
