I have been listening to the Live record again and really like it as much, if not more, than I used to, so I went out and bought Tales of the Unexpected yesterday and now probably won't stop until I have them all I am happy that you are continuing to play and record and tour--not bad, not bad at all...thanks for brightening up the world a little bit and keep on keeping on...Greg from Calfornia...

Hello Frank,

I am 40 years old as I write this note to you. I was turned on to your music in the early 80's and loved it from the moment I heard it. While I recognize your recordings were not embraced by the "so-called" mainstream , I can only say it's their loss!!!
As a solid guitarist myself (27 tears and counting) I know that guitar fans who have not heard your music would put you in the top of the heap with the Hendrix's, Clapton's, Gilmour's, Van Halen's, and Ray Vaughn's of the world.

I was fortunate to catch a live performance in the late 80's in Connecticut at the Agora Ballroom (opening act was Ronnie Montrose) it was superb and only solidified my desire to keep rock'in.

One of my favorite songs is "Dragonfly" because of it's funky, soulful vibe and your twist to "Johnny B. Goode" is so classic Frank it truly makes the rendition unique. (Chuck Berry must have been proud to hear that version).

Anyway, my cousin (Bill Danoff) won a few grammy's in the 70's for his group the "Starland Vocal Band" I know, kinda lame 1 hit wonders but inspiring none the less to strive for musical success. He also wrote "Country Roads" for John Denver, a prouder accomplishment no doubt.

I have had the pleasure recording guitar tracks for him in 90's and knowing what I know about the industry and performing only enhance my respect for your gift and deprivation of the world that does not know Frank Marino.

I hope you will be coming to the Northeast in 2006-2007(Ma. or Ct.) for I will surely be there. I am thankful to my friend and former drummer, Steve Bardier for turning me on to your music. What a void it would have been as a guitarist not knowing your music. I turn people on to your music every chance I get and always will.

The pleasures been all mine!!!!

Best regards,
Dean C. Vogel, Sr.

am a fan from the michigan palace days. best wishes, frank.

Hey Frank, probably don't remember me but I was wondering if you could put up some tabs on the site. I don't think I ever got any response so yeah... could you?
And... I LLLOOOVVVEEE your music, it's fantastic. How long have you benn playing guitar? What age did you join your first band?
Ok, well, I'm at school so I had better go.
I will talk to you later.
Keep On Rockin' Franky!

music. Can't wait to see you in concert again. Can't wait for a new cd to

Hey Frank. I saw you play in Vancouver, in I believe 1976 or 77. It was the first concert I ever attended. I became an instant fan, and am grateful that you are still playing. Keep up the excellent work!

I grew up listening to you in my early school days; still the coolest music I have ever heard thirty years later. Hope I can get them on CD.

Too bad you don't play in Holland at the Arrow Festival. Hope you will in future!!

Hello Frank.......I come from the same city as you..and today looking at your site brought tons of souvenirs in my head. I must have seen you 3 or 4 times but the best one.......was at Arena Maurice Richard in the early 70's. This show was somekind of Hendrix tribute to..............What a show.....with LSD helping we just had to close our eyes and then we were sure that Jimi was still alive....what a great guirarist you are Frank.........Thanks for all.......

Without a doubt "The Greatest Guitarist Ever", Thank you for the great music throughout my life.

A Long Time Fan

Frank,
I'm a 40 year guitarist from about the same era as you, with pretty much the music background, with a few added artists. Saw you twice live in the old days, Always liked what you where doing. Glad you are still around and playing, if you come to Atlanta would like to know about it. Would also like to send you a disc of music I have worked on for a while, all original, just to get your opinion overall. Let me know if there,s an address were you won't be leary of recieving something. Again glad you're still here.
Donald Dunlavey

Thanks for the lyrics..... would love to see "The Answer" Hope Frank does some tours in 2006...

Frank, I saw you perform at a free concert around mid to late 80's
at a small upstate NY college in New Paltz with Stevie Ray Vaughn/
The British Lions(formerly Mott the Hoople) and some unknown group
named Johnny and the Bandits...Do you remember it? I remember you
playing my favourite song ELECRIC REFLECTIONS OF WAR...wow!
I am a big Hendrix fan, I also remember Stevie doing 3 Hendrix tunes, most
notably THIRD STONE FROM THE SUN, I remember Stevie banging his strat
on the stage while holding it by the tremolo bar and gettting this incredible
feedback in true Hendrix tradition...blew my mind!
Anyway, are you planning any gigs in the upstate NY area? I would kill to
see you perform again.
