Frank Marino - Live at the Agora Theatre - It's Begun to Rain

Frank Marino performs "It's Begun to Rain" in an excerpt from the live BluRay/DVD 6 hour concert available now. Feel free to share the link! BluRay/DVD available at mahoganyrush.net/dvd

[@samgarofalo2461]

Bummer With sorrow I am forced to announce my immediate retirement from touring, and possibly all things related to continuing my career, due to an unexpected and debilitating medical condition which makes it impossible for me to tour. I want to thank all the people who supported me all of the last half-century. I know that many were looking forward to seeing us play this fall and I was looking forward to getting out again and doing more shows, but it now appears that in the absence of a miraculous recovery, my Concert DVD (Live at the Agora) will constitute the last show I will ever have played. I ask any that are believers to include me in their prayers. - Frank Marino

[@kmichaelp4508]

It has been done

[@dalerohling5989]

Godspeed on the recovery Frank.

[@frank_lehne]

Frank Marino is one of my all-time favorites, I saw him live once, and it was the best live performance I have ever seen.

[@jamesbakersongrocks1852]

so cool Brezze

[@jamesbakersongrocks1852]

the coolest of all time..to come

[@thumplife792]

I'm not sure if you'll see this, Frank, but we're all still praying and pulling for you. I haven't found any information stating that you are back out touring after your diagnosis and retirement announcement, but I hope that you are able to continue your art. As a fan, thank you for all of the amazing records and performances. As a fellow musician, I wanted to say thank you for setting the bar so high, and being such an inspiration to myself and millions of others around the world. You pushed us all to be better just by releasing the music you did. One of the greatest improvisers to ever pick up the instrument! Here's to you, Mr. Frank Marino! 🍻

[@randycarroll2885]

One of the best songs ever written

[@randycarroll2885]

@Sinful Bastard Child just my opinion... best song FRANK has written, to be succinct..

[@ozoneswiftak]

I'm not praying. Thats witch craft. But I will smoke a bowl or have a drink. Lift my cup to most awesome guitarist.

[@thumplife792]

@@ozoneswiftak I don't pray either. It's just a common quote. You put a little too much thought into it lol.

[@kennchristian665]

One Great Song!!!!

[@mooncritter721]

I challenge any shredder to play like this and sing. FAST SCALE RUNS MEAN NOTHING. Soul is what makes music great.

[@xianshep]

Soul is indeed what makes music great, but fast scale runs mean a bit more than NOTHING. [EDIT: I should add that if you told a concert violinist or pianist that fast scale runs meant nothing as they prepared to perform Paganini or Chopin, they'd look at you as if you were a complete idiot - which, in that case at least, would be entirely justified.]

[@jasonjohnson4170]

It's good to have the skill of anything you would like to do on the guitar. Fast runs have a place and are fun... if you can do them. They can be very melodic and soulful. Getting there is another story.

[@Allen-tm9xn]

Frank Marino is one of the best guitar players around. He doesn't get the recognition he deserves !!

[@peterpuleo9467]

All i can say is thank God for Frank Marino. Growing up in the 70's i was lucky to see Frank a few times, once at Madison Square Garden opening up for Kansas, another time with Aerosmith, and once with Pat Travers. Not only is his feel incredible and playing inspirational, but vocals are out of this world. Hopefully God will shine down on you Frank, and we will see or hear you play again !!!!

[@brianlynch9204]

Love the transition from sweet sad blues to optimistic jazz improv. I am an older guy and have loved Frank's music for years.

[@johnfatorich3494]

If those jazz riffs don't give you goosebumps nothing will. Masterclass!

[@jimmymurphy7789]

This is SPECTACULAR !!! 😃 Frank sure knows how to incorporate cool Jazz lines within his Blues/Rock playing. I love the way this particular SG (w/3 single-coil pickups) sounds just like a Strat to my ears. He really is the Best/Smoothest etc.

[@Sparrowhawk1962]

This is probably my favourite video on KZbin. I've long considered Frank a musical genius (since the 70s, in fact) and here he demonstrates his innate talent for songwriting, this is such a beautiful song, his ineffable sense of melody, his musicianship... this just has everything. Love it.

[@ColinJarrett]

How did I get to 48 without hearing of this guy? First time I meet him, he melts my face clean off!!!

[@peterhovey9258]

I Was Lucky To Have A Brother In Law That Was Really Into Music And Took Me To A Styx Concert In St Paul Mn Frank Marino Warmed Up For Styx And When Styx Came Out On Stage They Were Booed Off The Stage Until Frank Marino Came Back Out On Stage And Played With Styx Wow What A AWESOME Guitar Player I Would Pay Any Thing To See Frank Marino Play Again I Have Seen All Kinds Of Concerts In My Time Here So Frank marino Was The Best Even Above And Beyond Led Zepplin 😄

Talent beyond comprehension. IHe defined my teenage years and to this day . I'm in tears of joy listening to this in 2023 . We LOVE YOU FRANK 🖖👌✌️👃🖕

[@jeffkilburn4428]

I heard Frank for the first time back in 1973, from the Child of the Novelty album, New Rock and Roll. My older brother had that album. He had a big stereo from Radio Shack. I was 9 years old when I heard that song. The next song I heard was a few years later. From Mahogany Rush IV. It was Dragonfly. CHOM FM in Montreal. My older brother bought that album, too. That's when I really perked up to Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush. Then I bought that live album from '78. Then Tales of the Unexpected in '79. Long story short ... Frank's music crosses generations. Fast forward forty years. I have 2 outta 4 sons that play guitar. Both of those sons absolutely love Franks music! One of my boys and his band won the "Battle of the Bands" competition in Atlanta when he was 18 and 19 back in 2007 or '08. The moderator asked him (my son), Who were your greatest influences? My son said something like, "Oh, damn. Well, def Frank Marino". And then somebody in the audience shouted, Yeah!! And then I have my youngest son who picked up the guitar in 2016 or 17. He likes more jazzy n bluesy music. He doesn't like hard rock. So, I played It's Begun to Rain from the original album (IV) and he absolutely loved it! He loved Dragonfly, too. So, we started bantering about who is the most well-rounded? Who can play so many genres of music flawlessly? Who makes you feel the most comfortable and at ease at home? Who makes you feel the most comfortable in your skin? Which guitarist do you most identify with? Who would you sound like if you could play guitar on that level? Who's lyrics gave you goosebumps and inspired you the most? Based on all our music interests, it came down to 3. Jimmie Page and (Zeppelin), David Gilmour, and Frank Marino. We eliminated so many off that list. Blues artists, rock, jazz. Lots. Gone! Eric Johnson held in for a while. Why not? He's tight. It was hard to decide, obviously. Then we thought, These sounds and techniques from these bands, Zep, Floyd, and Mahogany are very disparate. So it's unfair to compare one against the other. So back to the original questions. Who is the most well-rounded? Who makes you comfortable at home and in your own skin? Who do you most identify with as a guitarist, and who would you sound like if you played on that level? Who's lyrics inspired you and gave you goosebumps? 2 of 3 of us said, Frank Marino. The other said, David Gilmour. But, he said, "It's just a difference in taste. They all taste different. This is an unfair comparison: Which Is Best? It's just a matter of taste." Ok, so which tastes best? Which would you aspire to? We three all said, "Frank", at the same time! Hahaha! So there!! How d'ya like them apples? True story!

[@harlandawson8447]

I was in Hawaii camping on north shore, and I cranked this tune out while the Dat was ending to a incredible surf day. All the local Hawaiians come up to me and wanted to know this song.

[@soyounoat]

♥ Frank Marino has been a top favorite of mine since the 1970s. I owned all of the great albums in original issue form with fold-open covers. I saw Frank play live in the early 1980s in a small club in Philadelphia called Ripley's. I had the closest seat to Frank's microphone which was an arm length away. Behind that was a wall of Marshall cabs that was louder than anything I have experienced in my 6 decades. At the end of the show, Frank looked down at me and tossed his guitar pick right into my hand. Being this was South Philly, about 10 guys tried to take it from me, none succeeded. I could not hear anything for several days afterward, but when hearing returned, I learned to play guitar with that pick. Thanks Frank!

[@lloydmcgriff98]

They came to Austin Tx. when I was a kid. So happy I was there. They opened for triumph . Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush murdered, destroyed, smoked and blew them away,,, unmercifully and with out a doubt. One of the Greatest shows of All Time. Thank You !!!! =D

Beautiful beautiful beautiful ! I was fortunate enough to see Frank and Mahogany Rush on 10 Dec 1977 at the King’s Hall, Queen Street Derby, UK. He was amazing and became a major influence on my playing. Loved the show, he played King Bee Blues, Purple Haze, Dragonfly (I think he may have opened with Dragonfly or The Answer) Requiem for a Sinner and World Anthem. Most of the stuff was from World Anthem and Mahogany Rush IV. He had a very good support band called Lone Star who did a song with a catchy melody called Bells of Berlin - Today is 20 November 2023 - Happy Birthday Frank - wishing you a fabulous day 🇬🇧 Frank’s voice is tear jerkingly beautiful.

One of my all-time favorites! I was introduced to Frank's music in the mid-seventies and had the chance to see him live 4-5 times and talked to him backstage late after a show with a couple my friends, early nineties in Albany NY. A very humble, courteous and friendly man. We talked 15-20 min - and would have talked longer had not his bandmates pulled him away to get on the their bus to wherever.. they laughed as he walked away telling us he would talk into late morning if we let him. He'll always have a special musical place in my life. I've turned many on to his music, who had not heard of him or vaguely at best . Thank you Frank. Hang in there and know you're loved.

True Masterpiece 😊. Last time I saw Frank play live was about 16-17 years ago ( maybe off by a year or so ) when he played at a little club here in San Diego called Brick by Brick …. That was Epic , and a true “ Thing to check off on my Bucket list “ as I’ve been a huge fan since around 1972 or ‘73 when I first was introduced to his music. Wishing you well buddy , you have been an incredible inspiration. 👍
