Free Peace Sweet is the third studio album by English rock band Dodgy. It was released on 17 June 1996 through A&M Records. Following frequent touring in the support of their second studio album Homegrown (1994), the band recorded its follow-up in Wessex Sound Studios in London with producer Hugh Jones. Additional recording was later done at Battery and Orinoco Studios.
Free Peace Sweet received generally favourable reviews from critics, some of who saw it as a strong but underwhelming collection of songs. The album reached number seven in the UK Albums Chart, eventually being certified platinum by the British Phonographic Industry (BPI). Out of all its singles, "Good Enough" peaked the highest at number 4 in the UK. Bookending a three month UK tour, "In a Room" and "Good Enough" was released as the album's first two singles in May and July 1996, respectively. "If You're Thinking of Me" and "Found You" followed as the third and fourth singles in November 1996 and March 1997. "Good Enough" would be certified silver by the BPI in 2015.
