Released in 1996, ‘Free to Move’ marks the peak of Israel Vibration’s career.
In France alone, the CD sold 40,000 copies within a few months, accompanied by a tour of around 30 dates across the country, including a three-night run in Paris at the Élysée Montmartre, the reggae temple of the time.
They landed the cover of L’AFFICHE magazine (then edited by Olivier Cachin) and made a highly notable live appearance on Nulle Part Ailleurs on Canal+ as the musical guest.
At that moment, the band was considered the breakout reggae act.
