Here's alittle bit of what I wrote to ya before info etc.. P.S. I hope you do decide to play Stories of a Hero live this time around! It would just be the most unforgettable day of my life if you did! Thanks a devoted fan. I've been listening to Frank since '82 when I was first turned on to him by my best friend. My favorites are IV...(the Emperor), Stories of a Hero, Moonwalk, Requiem for a Sinner, In my ways. These are THE most awesome songs!!! I first saw Frank in Ventura Ca. At the Ventura Theater. It was KILLER. I wish I could have met Frank. Maybe next time. Frank you have to stop near Monterey Ca on your coming tour! Thanks for all the cool memeories. You rock man. Keep up the faith.

Hello Frank. If you read this, I checked with my producer about your deal with Columbia. You and all of us are kind of S.O.L. But you should be able to rerecord anything you have done. How about Frank Marino's Greatest hits ? You could turn on a whole new group of listners to what now is only legend. Play music for yourself. It sooths the soul! Come to Minneapolis and record something. It would be a great day for everyone.

I want to offer sincere thanks to Frank Marino for helping to define the human condition through his music like no other person ever has, or ever will.

Sadly, I have lost track of Frank's career over the years but still consider him one of my favorite artists. The good news is that the first live album and "Juggernaut" are just as powerful in 1997 as they were when they were when originally released. When I first began listening to Frank I was a young kid partying hard and living for the moment. Now, as a father of two young children and with five years of sobrietry under my belt, I am happy to report that Franks music is just as great to listen to stone sober in the weight-room as it was on the jukebox of a smoke filled tavern. I plan to introduce my children to "the music", and I would love to know more about Frank's tour plans and future projects. The last time I saw Frank play live was in 1982 at a small theater in Chicago. I hope to have the chance, 15 years later, to see Frank in concert again. Any info would be welcome! Thanks

No question!. Frank Marino is absolutely my favorite guitar player. I have a half dozen of his CD's and treasure them with my life. There is no one like him. How can I send Frank a direct email. It would be great!. Thanks.

Thank you, Finally a page devoted to a great musician, I've Been a fan for years and have searched hard for every album Frank has put togather. My favorit song is Dragon Fly it's melow yet it has guts. I finaly got to see the band play at the Ventura theater in 87 or 88 I can't remember exactly But, it was the best show I ever attended. The only gig that could top that experience would be to see frank and Ulrich Roth play togather.

Frank, Thank you for being a Huge influence.Thanks to you I learned to play rock, rock/blues & jazz style guitar,your music and lyrics always "lifted me" and always puts me in a great mood! I got so into your music that my bands would play A new rock and roll, Talkin bout a feelin, Dragonfly, King Bee,and Rock and Roll hall of fame out live here in the Boston area.I was fortunate to meet you in 1989 I had a very old SG with me ( it was a SG special P90 type pickups ) Anyway... really looking forward to the new CD, and we all hope your tour comes to New England,.. Once again thank you so very much !! and Best Wishes ._

Frank, Thanks for all the great music over the years! I first listened to you in the mid 70's and have been a big fan ever since. Your energy, style, and soul are second to none! I look forward to more of your work released on CD.

Frank has always been a great influence! Both when it comes to guitarplaying as well as to songwriting. I saw him in Stockholm 1983 and would definitely see him again if he cared to go here! All the best!! Hakan

Frank, glad to see in the ballgame. Been listening to you since the 70's. You and a few others taught me how to play. If I don't say so myself, I could give you a run for your money. But, I can only say that because you and players like you helped to get me there. Naw, you'd probably kick my ass. Keep on rockin. You are a true source of freedom and inspiration. Love ya man!

i need ordering info for cd's i cant seem to find anywhere. thanks.

As a Jimi Hendrix fan, the style and feeling of your music in Dragonfly was one of the most influential songs of my youth and is still being played on my turn table (which incidently I still use). Eventhough I don't really follow the band anymore, I still think that you have made your mark in the Rock'n Roll history....

Original Date:10/11/1997 4:38:00am

Well Frank, I was 12 when I bought "Strange Universe"...kinda the year before rock derailed from feeling to commercialism. You were the main reason I started the guitar, and now 22 years later I play as a theapeutic gift to myself (and people like to watch me jam to). I ALWAYS play a few of your tunes from the old records or CD's to show them where my feel/style came from. Thanks. By the way, when are the record co.'s going to release World Anthem; Whats Next; P.O.R.R; Juggernaut?? I have found all the others domestically or on import. Regards, Ian

I have been a Mahogany Rush fan since 1973. I have seen them 5 times in the 70's and Frank solo in 1985. PLEASE re-release Juggernaut on CD. It is the best rock album ever recorded!!!!! Frank, there are still some of us hardcore Rushers out there. Please grace those of us in the Detroit area with your presence should you decide to tour again. You are the best rock guitarist of all time!!!!!!!!!! Anyone out there of the same mindset pleeze e-mail me any time. Later bmcelyea@flash.net

Frank Marino,I have been dying to see you come out and tear it up in the Southern California area. Everytime you have played at The Strand,it was a ear and mind blowing experience. When you come back,play some cuts off my favorite album of all time "Power of Rock and Roll". Thanks, Jeff

I've been listening to frank marino & mahogany rush since 1982. I was only 5 yrs. old! I am not joking, this is true!! Anyway, I have always enjoyed his music and awesome guitar licks. But, my brother-in-law is one of his biggest fans He has all of his albums, all on vinyl, cassette, and CD!! I hope to see FM&MR one day in concert. If you read this Frank, come on down to Texas so I can see you in action!! From a Great Fan in deep South Texas Cesar Ramirez 9-28-97
