You really get the vibe that Frank's guitar is a full expression of who he is. You don't see this often. When you do, you know, and that feeling stays. Mastery never sounded so good.
As you should . Frank's a beast . He had a following by guitar players as one of the best from the 70's and on . A style of his own . No, he wasn't a Hendrix wanna be . People that know, or knew guitar never thought that, it was the casual listeners . Frank Moreno is/was his own .
There is no rock and roll hall of fame. There is a music hall of fame. The actual rock and roll hall of fame exists in the hearts and minds of the true fans of rock and roll. The simple fact that someone as amazingly talented as Frank Marino wasn't inducted many years ago is all the evidence you need to prove my point. ✌️ ☮️ ❤️🎵🎸🎶🇺🇸🔥
Gary, Frank, Stevie, Eric, Gilmour, Knopfler, where does it end? All didifferent, all superb. It's not a competition, listen, enjoy and if you have a favourite, wonderful!
This Man is A Gift From God!! His Music Transcends any Genres... Without Frank -the should be NO Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame... Frank and Mahogany Rush have created TIMELESS Music ... A once in a LIFETIME Talent... As an Erstwhile guitarist -I find myself compelled to pick up the instrument each time I see/hear Frank. A true Lifelong Inspiration !!!
I saw a large number of concerts in the 70's and 80's. Frank Marino and MR I saw in 1978. One of the top 3 concerts I ever witnessed. A true master who just mesmerizes a crowd. I was transfixed the whole concert. .
He had the American tour planned. So I emailed him and asked if he was touring Canada. He got back to me quicker than my kids lol and said he was. Sadly he had to retire. Loved him since the very beginning :-)
i saw him way back in the 1978 at the Cal-Jam 2 he blew my mind with being a little Jimi Hendrix n Robin Trower Blend..but his voice and melodies were steller live.
This whole show is a guitar tour de force marathon of unbelievable magnitude. Frank has always seemed to be forgotten when those " best" lists are compiled but those of us who "know" have him on ours. Truly one of the greatest of all time, end of debate.
I remember seeing Frank Marino on TV at the age of 14 and telling my dad come look at this hippie play guitar. He was doing Johnny be good I remember thinking to myself this guy is better than Jimi Hendrix. My Father even said that guy is really good. Coming from my Father was a big surprise because he was very picky about music and musicians. Then a friend of mine had an album by him and after listening to reflections of War completely sealed the deal for me, then Frank became a drag racer. He had some of the most awesome machines. Turn forward to the 80s I was camping in the mountains of New Mexico my friend brought his Boombox and we listen to Frank Marino at Night Under the Stars in the mountains and the song that stands out is strange dreams. Laying on that Rocky ledge watching three-dimensional pattern of stars actually seeing the rotation of the Earth listening to strange dreams was one of the most moving experiences of my life. I am here to personally thank you Frank for sharing your God-given talents and making the world a better place. I love it when these so-called shredders approach me I'm a guitarist myself and I tell them they don't know anything and put on some Frank Marino and watch jaws drop to the floor. They sure do mention God an awful lot after listening to you 😂 God bless you Frank Marino.
@NATURAL SPIRIT Same here. I was a fan in the 1970s. Got to see him live in 1983, sitting a little more than an arm length from his mic stand. He tossed his pick to me before leaving the stage. Frank's massive guitar and vocal talents have him firmly among the greatest of all time in my estimation.
@@songsabai3794 Opinion granted the truth Eddie had nothing on Frank but maybe speed , When VH showed up Marino was already a legend. There are no real comparisons as music is art not competition. Eddie was great Frank was & is still great .
This has to be slickest, classiest rock song I've heard in a long long time. That crescendo solo, it's intense but very lean, minimalistic. It's very very tasteful, mature. Not to mention the gritty devil in the main riff. I am new to Frank Marino. But I've listened to this now 500 times and it just doesn't get old.
I think I was about 19 or 20 years old when I was first introduced to Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush, my best friend at the time gave me the album, ‘Tales of the Unexpected’. I was astounded by the guitar work and I was hooked! And you’re still just as genius on the superb leads that blend and compliment your songs. Thanks for letting me re-live those days of the late ‘70s!!! Frank Marino you are one of my favorite artists/songwriters ever!
I'll never forget we were that impressed by Frank Marino and the Mahogany Rush that we absolutely had to cover the 1976 song 'The Answer'... if interested check out 'Sensomania - The Answer' on RUclips.
Thanks Kurt for what you said this guy is one the best, he doesn't follow anyone else he is just Frank Marino and I'm grateful for that because he is Amazing.
It's disheartening to witness an artist of such caliber being overlooked and not receiving the acknowledgment he undeniably deserves. Frank Marino's contributions have not only shaped the sound of rock and blues but have also inspired countless musicians worldwide.
Pressing like doesn't due this justice. This guy is the essence of guitar rock. From the tone on that guitar, his smooth playing, cool voice, and the well-seasoned leather! One of the greats in my opinion. Gotta enjoy him while he's with us. He's not getting any younger. Peace.
Frank kept his music the way he wanted, and the way I wanted. He didn't bow to record labels pushing him to go pop like Def Leppard, Aerosmith, Van Halen, Journey, REO Speedwagon and countless other went.
I got to see Mahogany Rush at a Diamond Head Rock Festival, in Waikiki, around 1973. At the time, everyone was comparing Frank Marino to Hendrix, but his style was distinctive. That's just how creative and progressive Marino's sound was at the time.
What a legend! So greatt to see and hear this - used to soak in his playing in tiny clubs here in Ottawa/Montreal. Truly a genius in our time. His live Norwegian Wood is so magical. Also blessed to have had the good sense to take three bass guitar lessons from their bass player Paul Harwood. His super fundamental intro to bass playing made a huge impression on my little 16 year old brain. Treked a long way downtown to his apartment on Guy Street. He used a tobacco sunburst Precision (70's?) that was a sister to Franks burst Stat. At one lesson the guitar and bass were side by side and I almost had a heart attack! I did not have the guts to play the guitar but to this day, after trying 1000's of others, that P bass was the sexiest playing bass I ever had in my hands.
So damn good. The Agora in CLV??? How did I kiss this show? Talk about an artist that never got his fair share of respect. Total hidden gem that needs a resurgent like asap!
I saw Frank for the first time in Orlando ca. 1978 at a "Super Bowl of Rock" show, headlined by Aerosmith with Cheap Trick, Blackfoot, Nugent, etc. It was like a 12 hr stadium show and Marino came on just after dark. He was easily the highlight of the entire show, guitar wise, mesmerizing the crowd for a long set. Great to see him sounding even better in 2022!! ❤
When I seen frank live he mentioned that people thought he was jimi reincarnated, only problem frank was 16 when jimi hendrix passed. Between song monolog.
A favorite killer Canadian player. Frank is one of the best there is, and he never got the recognition he he has always deserved. Zakk Wylde said in the 80's, when he joined Ozzy, that Frank was a big influence. Frank Marino''s music is incredible, and will live on.....
He's one of the few complete Artists! His playing, his voice, those melt into a perfect couple and this couple also melts into a true marriage with his music and band. Adorable, i discovered him late and i'm oh so glad i did. Steers me thru difficult times and makes me feel allright.
Watch this dvd at least once a month. Some of the best money I’ve ever spent.If you truly love Rock n Roll this man has to be one of the greatest guitarists ever to perform live. Simply a master of his craft !!!!!!!!
Knowing Frank can no longer play is a crime against humanity...but he is such a cool guy and so knowledgeable I would be willing to take a week off of work, drive to Montreal, take him to a concert and just listen to him break down the musicianship of the band he is seeing. Dude is a legend.
This is a great example in how to construct a guitar solo: patience; an ode to the melody of the song....then tear loose with the bluesy swagger....just a fantastic...amazing guitarist. I have probably 40 guitar students; I doubt any know who he is....and that's a travesty.
Best 90 bucks I ever spent on anything music related. Thank you Frank! I hope you get better soon sir! You are a Canadian national treasure, but we love you so much in America! Keep us posted on your progress. The world needs your guitar in it, now more than EVER! 🎸🌍🎸🌍🎸❤️
I gave all my albums to my niece about 15 years ago,she's 35 now,. the only song she asked about was this song,and it was a big collection,. Love you Frank !!
Saw Frank play in both the late 70s and early 80s. The most intense live lead guitarist I have ever seen on stage. Over half his set was all instrumental every time I saw him. Mahogany Rush's rhythm section was as intense as any during the entire era. The live album from the 1970s. Such great memories. Seen him play live at least half a dozen times. Each time he brought it. Combination of extreme distortion, flanger, chrous, analog delay and a wah pedal wired to blow the roof off and extremely loud! I've seen all the great ones and Frank Marino is second to no one live on stage! The medley of Who do you love, solo, electric reflections of war and the World Anthem is a must hear for any fan of extreme live music tour de force insane lead guitar fan.
Amazing guitarist,songwriter and great singer and very cool guy in interviews. Unlike many other Rockstars Frank never 'sould out' he kept his integrity. Hope you get well Frank God Bless you and yours!
Saw him in concert early 2000s Indianapolis, that is when I became a fan . He did not disappoint, To say that he was Exceptional Lead guitarist would be a understatement. His music was not in the mainstream! Great playing live even if you never heard all his songs.
Kudo's to Frank for his vocals. He was nailing those high notes after all these years. Also, the drummer did a fine job with the song. It isn't easy following a drumming great like Timm Biery. Great job guys!
Beautiful song, beautifully sung, beautiful arranged, beautifully played. Saw Frank at Rock and Roll Heaven in Toronto. Belongs in Rock Hall of Fame. Kudos to all the band members keeping it tight.
I got to see Frank & Mahogany Rush live in the early’80s and it was a transformative experience!, particularly as a budding guitarist. Land of a 1000 Nights is it! The way the guitar just screams in the opening… 😳
I had heard Mahogany Rush on the King Biscuit Flower Hour on the radio late one night when I was a spry young man and was mesmerized. The next day I drove to our local record store aptly named Licorice Pizza and found the Strange Universe album and after listening to the music from beginning to end it changed my life completely. My next purchase was the Juggernaut album which also amazed me. Frank just doesn't disappoint.
Such a coincidence. One of very few strange dreams from last night have haunted me all day. In my dream I met a very old friend who took his life many years ago. He told me in my dream that he would come back, but he never did. And now in the evening I stumbled on one of my absolute favorite Frank Marino song. Beautiful piece of music.
This is amazing! I have played guitar for over 45 yrs and Can`t even comprehend how he sings the notes like he does at 70. This is an old man singing like he was 20. You think your a bad ass because you can play fast? Forget it. This blows away all guitar players of any age. Do this and I will retract my statement.
Amen and the fact is ha can play fast but he has such a great knowledge of the guitar he can play anyway he wants and it's just beautiful. I love me some Frank Marino!!!!
Just had this track on repeat in my theatre room on a nine foot screen and was absorbed by the words and guitaring absolutely fantastic brought a tear of delight to my eyes god bless this marvel of a man.
There was a period around 76 and 77, when Frank was the “baddest dude” on the planet - around the Frampton era, before the EVH phenomenon - I was right there for it as a youngster trying to learn to play - truly a beautiful time for great players and great music
All of the light traveling to the earth at the speed of light since the dawn of time would never in forever equal Franks talent.See ya in the land of a thousand nights brother.
I had second row tickets for him when his show was coming to St. Louis. I have been a Marino fan since the 70's and was so excited. When I heard he had to cancel I was devastated. I understand though, his health comes before my happiness, and I wish him the best of recoveries if that is possible. Hope you are doing better Frank, miss you man!
Jesus Christ!.... How's that I never knew of Frank Marino?... Such a precise and tasteful performer... Its gonna be a great sunday! Greetings from Argentina!.

All of us musicians from the Montreal scene (past and present) remain so proud of our hometown boy.
As you should . Frank's a beast . He had a following by guitar players as one of the best from the 70's and on . A style of his own . No, he wasn't a Hendrix wanna be . People that know, or knew guitar never thought that, it was the casual listeners . Frank Moreno is/was his own .
And rightfully so bro! 👍
I wouldn't say Frank is under rated or unappreciated i would say he's not a commercial sell out. Musicians appreciate him just fine.
The crowd was full of guitarists . Bruce Franklin from metal band trouble I recognized.
His voice is certainly underrated...he's amazing talent that flies under the radar for many
At my age 63 , I add him as one of the BEST
Needs to be in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame!!!!
I agree, except that the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is not worthy of Frank Marino.
@@richietownsend6737 How true but he deserves to be there along with the greats that are there when it still had merit .
NO !! That place is for people like madonna and such, Frank IS way too good for that !!!
There is no rock and roll hall of fame. There is a music hall of fame. The actual rock and roll hall of fame exists in the hearts and minds of the true fans of rock and roll. The simple fact that someone as amazingly talented as Frank Marino wasn't inducted many years ago is all the evidence you need to prove my point. ✌️ ☮️ ❤️🎵🎸🎶🇺🇸🔥
Agree it is bs that he's not....some folks can't think outside the box..
Cmon man..frank is a legend...put him in the hall of fame....Bud
The most underrated artist in musical history.
omg.. only discovered this great musician now, shame on me...better late than never
I was just saying this to someone 2 minutes ago. LEGEND!!
MR was my first concert. Was in the 70's. An absolute magical time for me and so glad it was Frank and band!
No one seems to mention Franks voice, his pitch is bang on, what a live gig this must have been, love to have been there, epic show !!
Not to mention he's in his what late 50's
Saw this tour there was like only 80-100 people there considering It was the 5th time I saw frank I was glad to have seen him soo intimately
Why would anyone need to mention his voice .. we all have ears
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏
Yes, he was DEAD ON! He was a master.
Frank is one of the greatest singer songwriters in the business god bless him 😊
Don’t know how I missed this guy, I was into Gary Moore for years. Frank is a fantastic guitarist and vocalist just beautiful.
Gary, Frank, Stevie, Eric, Gilmour, Knopfler, where does it end?
All didifferent, all superb.
It's not a competition, listen, enjoy and if you have a favourite, wonderful!
You will love his "Real Live" album. It's on YT also....fan fucking tastic!!
This Man is A Gift From God!! His Music Transcends any Genres... Without Frank -the should be NO Rock and Roll Hall Of Fame... Frank and Mahogany Rush have created TIMELESS Music ... A once in a LIFETIME Talent... As an Erstwhile guitarist -I find myself compelled to pick up the instrument each time I see/hear Frank. A true Lifelong Inspiration !!!

Best Canadian guitarist by far in his category of blues and hard rock...what a combination...fuck, you rule Frank
He had the American tour planned. So I emailed him and asked if he was touring Canada. He got back to me quicker than my kids lol and said he was. Sadly he had to retire. Loved him since the very beginning :-)
How in the world did I ever miss this guy? I just heard about him! He is amazing!
Hopefully you look up some of his clips from the 70's live. He ruled the world.
I don't know how either....hes been around for decades
Meeeeee To !!!!
i saw him way back in the 1978 at the Cal-Jam 2 he blew my mind with being a little Jimi Hendrix n Robin Trower Blend..but his voice and melodies were steller live.
I paid to see Nazareth because Mahogany Rush was opening. They did not make the show, never had another chance. I saw Nazareth, fine....
He didn’t just play solos, he painstakingly crafted them to the highest standard there is: Frank’s! True master.
My Fav Marino tune
"painstakingly crafted them to the highest standard" That is the most perfect comment!!!
Amazing performance! This era of talent is unmatched in todays music. Wishing Frank the best.
HAPPY 69 BIRTHDAY FRANK MARINO. THANKYOU FOR THIS 1982 FAVORITE MASTERPIECE ANTHEM. NOVEMBER 20, 2023 DETROIT MICH AREA.
Frank's voice is just as hypnotic as his guitar.
I don't hear much about his voice, mainly his amazing guitar work. His voice is absolutely Incredible !
ONE OF THE BEST GUITARIST EVER!🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶✌️😎BOB! HE ALSO IS A GREAT SINGER ,GREAT SOUNDING VOICE!!!!🎶🎶🎶✌️!
Many of us have not forgotten you Frank! THANKYOU!
Really I,LL NEVER FORGET (FRANK MARINO) ONE OF THE BEST GUITARIST MUSICIAN IN ROCK HISTORY!🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶✌️😎BOB
i met frank 2x in the 1980s.i was star struck. he was the nicest person to me.. a great player.
This whole show is a guitar tour de force marathon of unbelievable magnitude. Frank has always seemed to be forgotten when those " best" lists are compiled but those of us who "know" have him on ours. Truly one of the greatest of all time, end of debate.
Agreed
(☞ ಠ_ಠ)☞ politics.
💯!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is the greatest ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏
I had Maxoom on 8-track! I have it on CD now! 😎✌️
If you haven’t seen it yet, Zakk Wylde posted a few days ago his 11 greatest guitarists list and he had Frank Marino on it.
I built my 1970 Triumph 650 Bonneville chopper listening to Frank Marino. Still makes the hairs on my arm stand up.
Questo è meraviglioso!!!!!!!🤟
I remember seeing Frank Marino on TV at the age of 14 and telling my dad come look at this hippie play guitar. He was doing Johnny be good I remember thinking to myself this guy is better than Jimi Hendrix. My Father even said that guy is really good. Coming from my Father was a big surprise because he was very picky about music and musicians. Then a friend of mine had an album by him and after listening to reflections of War completely sealed the deal for me, then Frank became a drag racer. He had some of the most awesome machines. Turn forward to the 80s I was camping in the mountains of New Mexico my friend brought his Boombox and we listen to Frank Marino at Night Under the Stars in the mountains and the song that stands out is strange dreams. Laying on that Rocky ledge watching three-dimensional pattern of stars actually seeing the rotation of the Earth listening to strange dreams was one of the most moving experiences of my life. I am here to personally thank you Frank for sharing your God-given talents and making the world a better place. I love it when these so-called shredders approach me I'm a guitarist myself and I tell them they don't know anything and put on some Frank Marino and watch jaws drop to the floor.
They sure do mention God an awful lot after listening to you 😂 God bless you Frank Marino.
My love for Frank has now surpassed four decades. Without question the Very Best.
Same
☮️
@NATURAL SPIRIT Same here. I was a fan in the 1970s. Got to see him live in 1983, sitting a little more than an arm length from his mic stand. He tossed his pick to me before leaving the stage. Frank's massive guitar and vocal talents have him firmly among the greatest of all time in my estimation.
You know it.
He is legendary...he knocked everybody out of the box in the 70s with his ground breaking guitar work!
......then Eddie came along!
And after came Satriani which became the one and then Vai!! But if it weren’t for Frank they wouldn’t be!!!
@@jeff9ish my opinion....Frank has the jazz/blues thing down better
@@songsabai3794 Opinion granted the truth Eddie had nothing on Frank but maybe speed , When VH showed up Marino was already a legend. There are no real comparisons as music is art not competition. Eddie was great Frank was & is still great .
@fastguitar Frank said after playing Cal Jam2 ...the other bands would not talk to him...blew them away!
This has to be slickest, classiest rock song I've heard in a long long time. That crescendo solo, it's intense but very lean, minimalistic. It's very very tasteful, mature.

Welcome to the party Rog.
@@Mtns14000 It's good to be here.
Ya bud and he's even playing it cleaner than usual
Frank in the 80's n 90's would melt your face with his solos a master of seamless tones
@@zandig666
70s as well
Unbelievable! Not only is he an amazing guitarist, but he still sings beautifully as well.
Under appreciated guitar maestro, get chills every time I experience his mastery and messaging. Rock guitarist all time top ten.
Many Greats Love Him !
How the hell does he get such a sweet tone from an SG? Daaaayum it is mind blowing honestly. But I'm sure glad to hear it. 👌
@@ScottyKirk1 as you see it's not a common sg
There are single coils no hums
He was undeservedly criticized for being just a "clone" of Hendrix.. what an incredible guitarist!!!
absolutely - saw him once, when Mahogany Rush opened for Queen in 1974 I think it was - jaw-dropping incredible
Man oh man. I've never heard a bad Marino song.
Amazing performance by a trully underrated guitar maestro!!! A real legend!!!
I think I was about 19 or 20 years old when I was first introduced to Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush, my best friend at the time gave me the album, ‘Tales of the Unexpected’. I was astounded by the guitar work and I was hooked! And you’re still just as genius on the superb leads that blend and compliment your songs.

Great record!!!
franks All along the watchtower on that album was great!
me and my buddy turned 19 just in time to see this tour in Toronto -- what a wicked show
Norwegian wood,, is so good 👍 I still play the album,,, Star spangled banner
I'll never forget we were that impressed by Frank Marino and the Mahogany Rush that we absolutely had to cover the 1976 song 'The Answer'... if interested check out 'Sensomania - The Answer' on RUclips.

Pressing like doesn't due this justice. This guy is the essence of guitar rock. From the tone on that guitar, his smooth playing, cool voice, and the well-seasoned leather!

So tastefully done. Revisiting my collection of Frank's vinyl right now. What a great guitarist and song writer.
Ditto!!!!!
If you’re a fan of Frank and you don’t own the dvd this is from then you are missing out. It’s my favorite concert dvd in my collection.
He sounds great! Vocals on point, guitar unmatched by anyone else.

MY FAVORITE FRANK MARINO SONG. THANKYOU . SOUNDS AWESOME OCTOBER 2022, MONROE, MICH.
I saw Frank for the first time in Orlando ca. 1978 at a "Super Bowl of Rock" show, headlined by Aerosmith with Cheap Trick, Blackfoot, Nugent, etc. It was like a 12 hr stadium show and Marino came on just after dark. He was easily the highlight of the entire show, guitar wise, mesmerizing the crowd for a long set. Great to see him sounding even better in 2022!!
❤
I was there at the Citrus Bowl. Those Rock Superbowls were a great time. \m/
We saw the same show lineup at Day on the Green in Oakland 1978 .🔥🔥🔥🔥 6:06
His guitar playing just gives me the chills
He's so awesome on guitar it's easy to overlook he's got an amazing voice as well.
❤️🙏❤️
When Hendrix passed away, there was nothing until Frank and Stevie Ray came along! There are many more now! I still love Frank, and always will!
When I seen frank live he mentioned that people thought he was jimi reincarnated, only problem frank was 16 when jimi hendrix passed. Between song monolog.
So great... Frank has a beautiful voice and a great tone of his SG... the best combination. One of the most distinctive and underrated musicians
All of Franks music is always a hell of a listening experience.
A favorite killer Canadian player. Frank is one of the best there is, and he never got the recognition he he has always deserved. Zakk Wylde said in the 80's, when he joined Ozzy, that Frank was a big influence. Frank Marino''s music is incredible, and will live on.....
I’m glad Frank released this. There’s so much on the DVD. People really need to own it! 6 amazing hours!!!
Frank still sounds great. The drummers on point. The band sounds badass
Stumbled on this video and liked it and then realize he was a guitar player from mahogany rush a band I liked in my youth
He's one of the few complete Artists!
His playing, his voice, those melt into a perfect couple and this couple also melts into a true marriage with his music and band.
Adorable, i discovered him late and i'm oh so glad i did. Steers me thru difficult times and makes me feel allright.
The most underrated guitar players of all time.
This sounds better than when this 60-year-old saw him live in the 70'S Amazing! Peace from Detroit MI.
Not only is the music played unbelievably but his voice is unreal!! Wish I saw him in concert!
First time I saw him was on tv. Cal Jam 2 and he blew everybody away!
Watch this dvd at least once a month. Some of the best money I’ve ever spent.If you truly love Rock n Roll this man has to be one of the greatest guitarists ever to perform live. Simply a master of his craft !!!!!!!!

The keyboard part sounds so cool on guitar. He does it 2 different ways. This DVD IS A MUST! I Love my copy! god bless Frank!!!

There is no greater thing! there is no greater Joy! The Lord God almighty! & Frank Marino's Music.. It just does it for Me! and I thank God for Frank!
Juggernaut album. An absolute MASTERPIECE from beginning to end. Period.
Strange Dreams and Poppy 🥰
Ahhh Frank.....those are still my favorites and you are second to none 👏😃
Hope you're feeling better!
Only Frank can slap single coils to a Gibson SG. Awesome song, awesome sound.
This is so good of a live version it's almost unbelievable!
I saw Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush at the Texxas Jam in 1978. That was a long concert.
MY FAVORITE BY FRANK....STRANGE DREAMS.
I gave all my albums to my niece about 15 years ago,she's 35 now,.
the only song she asked about was this song,and it was a big collection,.

Saw him in concert early 2000s Indianapolis, that is when I became a fan . He did not disappoint, To say that he was Exceptional Lead guitarist would be a understatement. His music was not in the mainstream! Great playing live even if you never heard all his songs.
As other has mentioned, you sing well Frank. I hope you get well. The drummer you have there is top class.
❤🙏❤️
Mr. Dave Goode on the drums!
Kudo's to Frank for his vocals. He was nailing those high notes after all these years. Also, the drummer did a fine job with the song. It isn't easy following a drumming great like Timm Biery. Great job guys!
Beautiful song, beautifully sung, beautiful arranged, beautifully played. Saw Frank at Rock and Roll Heaven in Toronto. Belongs in Rock Hall of Fame. Kudos to all the band members keeping it tight.
Not just a brilliant guitarist but a very good singer. Shame he cannot play live anymore.
What happened?
I got to see Frank & Mahogany Rush live in the early’80s and it was a transformative experience!, particularly as a budding guitarist. Land of a 1000 Nights is it! The way the guitar just screams in the opening… 😳
I had heard Mahogany Rush on the King Biscuit Flower Hour on the radio late one night when I was a spry young man and was mesmerized. The next day I drove to our local record store aptly named Licorice Pizza and found the Strange Universe album and after listening to the music from beginning to end it changed my life completely. My next purchase was the Juggernaut album which also amazed me. Frank just doesn't disappoint.
Great Song Frank your music Sounds awesome Live Never Got to see you, your influence carries on
Such a coincidence. One of very few strange dreams from last night have haunted me all day. In my dream I met a very old friend who took his life many years ago. He told me in my dream that he would come back, but he never did. And now in the evening I stumbled on one of my absolute favorite Frank Marino song. Beautiful piece of music.
Right on Frank. Your music always leaves me in a better place. 🤘😎
Can't count how many times I've listened to this song in the last week. This version.
Same here
Plus Something's Coming our way
☮️
Been a fan since I heard “Mahogany Rush Live”when it was released in 76’ or 77’! Frank is STILL simply fantastic!
Wishing him nothing but the best.
A major guitar influence!
This is amazing! I have played guitar for over 45 yrs and Can`t even comprehend how he sings the notes like he does at 70. This is an old man singing like he was 20. You think your a bad ass because you can play fast? Forget it. This blows away all guitar players of any age. Do this and I will retract my statement.
Amen and the fact is ha can play fast but he has such a great knowledge of the guitar he can play anyway he wants and it's just beautiful. I love me some Frank Marino!!!!
Just had this track on repeat in my theatre room on a nine foot screen and was absorbed by the words and guitaring absolutely fantastic brought a tear of delight to my eyes god bless this marvel of a man.
There was a period around 76 and 77, when Frank was the “baddest dude” on the planet - around the Frampton era, before the EVH phenomenon - I was right there for it as a youngster trying to learn to play - truly a beautiful time for great players and great music
ONE OF FRANK'S BEST.
I was just watching this Blu-ray thinking, I wish they would upload another song 🎵 from this fabulous 6 hour collection ... and presto, here it is!
My favorite guitar hero. 🎸
All of the light traveling to the earth at the speed of light since the dawn of time would never in forever equal Franks talent.See ya in the land of a thousand nights brother.
Growing up in Little Rock I was the only one of my group of friends that had his albums.
I had second row tickets for him when his show was coming to St. Louis. I have been a Marino fan since the 70's and was so excited. When I heard he had to cancel I was devastated. I understand though, his health comes before my happiness, and I wish him the best of recoveries if that is possible. Hope you are doing better Frank, miss you man!
Frank marino.always fantastic. Always will be. Thats just the way of it.
I'm so very fortunate to have seen him play and still remember the concert ,that was in 1979 I think in New orleans at the Warehouse
I remember this tune, I grew up in Toledo, 60 miles South of Detoit/Windsor.
Jesus Christ!.... How's that I never knew of Frank Marino?... Such a precise and tasteful performer... Its gonna be a great sunday! Greetings from Argentina!.
