I HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A #1 FAN OF FRANK MARINO SINCE THE 70S. I HAVE SEEN MARINO APPROXIMATELY 7 TIMES DURING HIS CAREER AND HAVE PRIVATELY MET WITH HIM DURING ONE OF HIS SHOWS WHICH HE AUTOGRAPHED A RECORD ENTITLED, "STRANGE UNIVERSE.'' FRANK MARINO WILL ALWAYS BE THE #1 GUITARIST FOR ALL ARTIST TO FOLLOW. I SURE WOULD ENJOY FEEDBACK FROM THIS LETTER AND FUTURE INFORMATION REGARDING POSSIBLE TOURING OF THE BAND. THANKS!! #1 FAN

Hopefully word can be relayed to Frank that we'd love to see him in or near St. Petersburg, Fl. It would fulfill one of the goals I've always hoped to reach. Seeing Frank tear it up! Thanks, Eric

I am a great fan of you, and I'm disperatly seeking for some video of your concerts, but I never found even trace of them. I want to know if these videos really exist, and when I can order them. Perhaps in the future also italian fan will be able to hear Frank' guitar? When a Marino's concert in italy? A very great "CIAO" to Frank from italians fans.

My favorite album is Full Circle My favorite sonf is Ain't dead yet!! A long time ago (about 12 years) my class went to an oldfolks home at christmasstime. Of course, the rebel I was I had to bring my getto blaster. You want to guess what album I was playing? Right : The Power of the Rock and Roll! That last song came out kind of strange in this atmosphere. I really love his guitarplaying and can not wait to see him live. I have had the opportunity to see many guitar greats including Joe Satriani, Rory Gallagher (god bless his soul), Ritchie Blackmore, John Petruchi, Malmsteen, etc. etc. But I can't wait to see Frank play on stage!!!!

Frank Marino, you Italian bastard, you are without a doubt the most underrated and overaccomplished hard rock blues guitarist that I've ever encountered. You, on your live album, are so good that you almost scared me out of playing altogether. Although borrowing from your style, I would never attempt to copy you. I hear Hendrix in you, naturally, but that's not what I'm after. Your take on his style, though heavily influenced (like others aren't!) by Jimi, is unique and deserves more recognition than you have received in the past. Man, don't do like other bands from the seventies and show your age in your writing; keep kicking ass and playing your ass off!!! "Live" rules!!! R2D2 is cool, but I'd be more than willing to play backup! I am an accomplished guitarist, raised on you (and Nuge and Rush, among others), a graduate of Berklee, and am sick of my day job! Let's jam! I write, too! I majored in it at school! Tell me what you want and I can do it. All I need is a break - like so many others say, I know, and how to make this different from the rest? Hmm. Tough one. Just come jam with me (or visa/versa). Hey, it's worth a shot, huh? Doesn't hurt to ask, right? Let me end you a tape! I'm ready to go on the road! Anyway, thanks for the inspiration that sent me to Berklee, and many years of fine listening enjoyment! You rule! Hill Hight p.s. See, I don't even have to change my name to something weird; it already is! p.p.s. I also heard that you had your SG's scaled like Strats (24 3/4 to 25 1/2) Any truth?

Wow Frank what's up?. The soul of Hendrix lives on. Columbia label now owned by Sony sucks. They limit your lps on cd. I just can't belive that they totally ignore FM&MR fans. You were bitchin. If I throw a party and there are some smart ass grunge poeple there I put on your lps to piss them off. The Strat attack blows them away. Anyhow Sony better wise up. They come here. buy out Columbia,and just sit on the massive tape library!!. If you were like those bull shit AEROSMITH assholes, they would release your stuff. AEROSMITH is being put out by Columbia and compared to you they suck . Joe perry blowhard couldn't hold your package of strings. They hide behind horns what bull. Anyhow would love to hear some new stuff you have . SEE YA I'm your kingbee baby!!

I am so damned glad to see this website that I'm "lak to shittin' m' britches!" You can count me as the world's third biggest Frank Marino fan. I have been collecting the works of this guitar god lately and would gladly trade my special recordings of Captain Beefheart for any Marino live boots. As far as I'm concerned, Frank Marino is one of the true guitar greats of this sector of the galaxy. I have enjoyed much inspiration from this crazed maniac's talents, and I am doing what I can nowadays to help educate America's youth to Franks's skills. I do a radio show that's syndicated to colleges -- THE HOUR OF SLACK -- and I have been making sure that the SubGenius fans out there in radioland get their fair share of Mahogany Rush. As a nonplaying guitar afficionado, I hail Frank Marino and I hope that the sumbitch realizes that he is THE ULTIMO. Frank, your message has not been lost on this particular fanboy!

I've published my web page (albeit a bit diff...sorta like FMMR?) and asked for just a visit from Frank...you say he reads all this...still.....i refuse to believe I'm just ignored...I just don't believe it..yet I feel like Linus and the Great Pumpkin....am I truly being ignored, or are you just a hoax? I hope I'm being ignored......
