Tons of Sobs is the debut studio album by the English rock band Free, released in the UK on 14 March 1969.

Free were a new band when they recorded Tons of Sobs, and they were young; all were teenagers and the youngest, Andy Fraser, was 16.

With the band signed to Chris Blackwell's Island Records, Guy Stevens was hired to produce the album.

He took a minimalist attitude to production due to the extremely low budget of about £800, and created a raw, raucous sound – although the relative inexperience of the band possibly contributed to this.

Originally slated for a November release, the album was delayed until early 1969 due to the late addition of the cover of "The Hunter".
