Needs to be in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame!!!!

[@richietownsend6737]

I agree, except that the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is not worthy of Frank Marino.

[@paullevine1813]

@@richietownsend6737 How true but he deserves to be there along with the greats that are there when it still had merit .

[@shanghunter7697]

NO !! That place is for people like madonna and such, Frank IS way too good for that !!!

[@willarrington8611]

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

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.

He didn’t just play solos, he painstakingly crafted them to the highest standard there is: Frank’s! True master.

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 !!!

[@JoeM-by5tw]

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. .

Frank's voice is just as hypnotic as his guitar.

[@bimjones3597]

At my age 63 , I add him as one of the BEST

[@stepitup5409]

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.

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.

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.

[@iggyfritz7150]

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.

[@waynewalters5813]

Amazing performance! This era of talent is unmatched in todays music. Wishing Frank the best.

@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.

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.

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.

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!

[@fords_nothere_100]

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!! ❤
