Freelight was a San Francisco based jazz fusion band - formed 1977 - who completed demos early in 1978 and went label hunting. Although they recorded several tracks, they never made it past a solid demo stage. Eventually litigation over the tapes resulted in their demise. The band broke up after a final and triumphant performance at the Troubador in Los Angeles
The band was actually the creation of Pam Tillis (Mel's daughter) John Cipollina was a key member during the band's existence. This was a much different look into John's participation in one of his many band memberships in that his was a supporting player for the group leader Tillis. Still, there are quite a few fine moments where Cipollina was given some freedom to do what he did best.
