"Privilege (Set Me Free)" is a song by the Patti Smith Group and released as the second single from their 1978 album Easter. The original version of the song was titled "Free Me" and was written by Mel London and Mike Leander for the 1967 film Privilege and released in the United States as a single by The Pace on the Reprise label in 1968. Patti spoke sections of Psalm 23 over the instrumental bridge among other lyrical additions. During the beginning recoding process, Wayne Kramer of MC5 played guitar on "Privilege (Set Me Free)". Although reportedly there was friction during the recording sessions with Smith expressing dissatisfaction with Kramer's guitar playing. This led to Kramer leaving the studio, along with his involvement in the record disappearing.
