I figured it was time to do the studio version of "It`s Begun To Rain" (I do have a live version posted on my channel) A fantastic tune it is! Enjoy...Russ
The music industry should be ashamed of themselves for not supporting and promoting the musical genuis that is Frank Marino and keeping his music from us. He would not let them exploit him. He is a true artist.
Yes both frank Marino and Shawn lane. Shawn should’ve been recognized in black oak Arkansas. Guitar player never mentioned Shawn. By the time I heard of shawn lane was he was dead. Buckethead mentioned Shawn lane in guitar player 2000s was all needed but he was dead. Imagine frank Marino screaming melody to backing track ‘Once upon a time in the west’ Ennio morricone. piercing the ears beauty, melt
Possibly one of Franks Best songs ever....I dig all of Franks music, Been a fan for many years but this song really touches the heart....Rock on Frank and Thank you for all of your great music
Saw Mahogany Rush at Diamond Head crater festival in '76. Best live guitar display I've ever seen. Being 30 feet from stage helped alot. Also, Paul Harwood and Jimmy Ayoub were excellent. Awesome!
Good heavens!! Have you ever heard a rock ballad so complete, so sublime? Thank you, Frank Marino, Jimmy Ayoub and Paul Harwood. But especially, Frank marino, the dreamer, composer and arranger. How odd and untoward -- that timing, luck and happenstance would leave such a musical genius so utterly under-appreciated. God bless, Frank!
Lenny Kravitz really was influenced by this guy, particularly for his biggest hit, "you gonna go my way" to me sounds very like Frank Marino...for sure!
I just can't understand why this music never had the chance to resonate with millions of people. It's simply so superior to most of the rock we were getting deluged with in the 70s and 80s. The record company really did Frank and the listening public a disservice by failing to connect the two entities in a way that would have been beneficial to both. Frank was just incredibly creative back then, producing so much great music, not to mention superior guitar playing.
I put this song on the turntable as I smoked a lil hit of hash and blew it out the window before walking to the bus stop in the rain on my way to Oakland High (circa 1978-79)
Fun song to play and sing. The Melotron on this is so beautiful. Most understated wah performance in history. Mahogany Rush what a class act. Thank you for posting. Peace.
A neighbor was listening to MR oneday way back in 78 when I was 15. I loved it. I went out & bought every 8 track I could find. Today they’ve all been replaced by cd’s which I listen to often & every time I do someone always ask me who’s that?! I have never saw him live but had tickets to see him at Rams Head in Balto MD that was cancelled because of Covid. 😢 How disappointing. I wish they would have played more MH on the radio back then because they would have had s much bigger following.
So I'm working with this square who's eyeing retirement. We be chattin about music and he lays this trip on me. Far out! How have I never heard this before? Sublime!!!
My all time favorite Frank Marino song. The lyrics soar with the guitar, as well as weep. I see outside that it's begun to rain . . . and out pours his tears through that weeping and soaring guitar solo, to a resurrection in joy and peace to close out the song. I want that song played at my funeral.
Thank you, Canada, for the genius who is Frank Marino...RUSH...MOXY...Bruce Cockburn...and early Neil Young...anything he did prior to the horrible 'Rockin' in the Free World'...
Thank you Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush...........I saw your band back in the mid 80's at the Coyote Club on Clairmont Blvd. when this bar was still open and a great place to see your favorite band...outstanding show Mahogany Rush! I never saw you before but ever since....your the man!
Well what can I say apart from wow, was introduced to the man from my uncle and this song just uniquely touched my soul I was completely speechless , the live version at the agora is epic, sends shivers down my spine some beautiful guitar work Frank Marino an absolute legend 33 year old fan for life now 🎸 🎶
This song has always touched me I loved the jazz feeling ending,I bought this album when it came out.In fact I bought every album Frank made starting with Maxoom,every year I waited for the new MR album to come out they were all great I was never disappointed.Franks music is music I always connected with.Thanks Frank for all the great music!
"mosquito hawk"........dragonfly........another great frank marino song........always loved this tune as a young man...........love it even more as an old man..........
Makes me miss Hendrix as much as it makes me miss Frank Marino. Two stellar talents, one of whom became too famous too fast and another who never got the credit he deserved for his immense talent. Just thought of something funny, BTW: Radiohead's 'Optimistic' ends almost the same way this tune does. Any secret Mahogany Rush fans in that group? Thanks for posting. Great tune.
@@jerrywoods4066 That's an opinion son. You're far too young to appreciate either.....I've seen Frank and MR 5 times lad, they are an amazing band and still killing it.
One of the Great Guitarists! Jimi Hendrix and Frank Marino and Robin Trower! Both Frank and Robin really took Jimi somewhere Into the 4th Dimension of Electronics to Electric Guitar!
Mr.frank marino is deffinetly the most kick ass guitarist in the world and has been for a very long time, he is up there with Mr. Jimi Hendrix, no kidding
MY HEART SINGS MY SOUL SAYS I LOVE THIS .CAN YOU EVER FORGET THIS GREAT STAR HE HAS BECAME PART OF THE COSMIC BROTHER FROM EARTH TO INFINITY TERRY BROOKS AND STRANGE
Goodbye Frank, sorry you have left the stage, for the last time. I hope you get to enjoy life, do some things you didn't have time for before now. "Go fishing!" Canada has some beautiful places to go to. Personally, I enjoy fishing and I recommend it. You get in touch with the Creator, sitting on the bank, or in a boat. Breath clean air and enjoy your surroundings. You might even catch a fish! But if not, who cares!!
A little underrated? He’ll always be #1 in my book. I think he knows he’s great & doesn’t need the accolades other musicians do. He’s more worried about his art & fans then he is about pleasing a record label. And that’s what I love about him, other than his awesome voice & guitar playing. I am so glad he’s still touring.
I have this LP since 1976 Love it. I've seen Jimi Hendrix & Robin Trower live But not Frank He's sort of a synthesized Hendrix Positively Part of My Hendrix Triumverat.
Seen him many times, smokes the music they play on the radio. Better than pat travers, Ronnie Montrose, Ritchie blackmore. He is way past all these guys.
Been a fan since the 70's...Thats a long time ago. But to this day I can still put on Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush Live, 4, Juggernaut, etc...and still feel the same way I did when I first bought it...and thats happy, free, and content. Its GREAT to escape the reality of this world once in a while..🤗💝
The music industry should be ashamed of themselves for not supporting and promoting the musical genuis that is Frank Marino and keeping his music from us. He would not let them exploit him. He is a true artist.
Well said. I felt cheated when I discovered Frank 😕
So many great songs 🎵
Yes both frank Marino and Shawn lane. Shawn should’ve been recognized in black oak Arkansas. Guitar player never mentioned Shawn. By the time I heard of shawn lane was he was dead.

As a guitar player: I love the whole vibe and feel that Frank Marino gives in this song. Mahogany Rush IV is gem.....among Frank's other releases.
The single most overlooked underated guitarist to ever bend s string, love ya rock on brother. Know you will be sorely missed
One of the best MR songs ever. blues , jazz and rock fusion mixed together in a great smooth package
Possibly one of Franks Best songs ever....I dig all of Franks music, Been a fan for many years but this song really touches the heart....Rock on Frank and Thank you for all of your great music
Saw Mahogany Rush at Diamond Head crater festival in '76. Best live guitar display I've ever seen. Being 30 feet from stage helped alot. Also, Paul Harwood and Jimmy Ayoub were excellent. Awesome!
If you listen close enough you can here the instant my life changed forever and my heart broke.

Well said man!
Lenny Kravitz really was influenced by this guy, particularly for his biggest hit, "you gonna go my way" to me sounds very like Frank Marino...for sure!
A work of musical art!
Linda Galvan Yes, Linda, yes it is! You have fine musical taste.
Magnifique, like a slow Hendrix tune
A song that takes me back to a happier time in life.
U´re damn Right!

I agree, Frank is top notch.
I put this song on the turntable as I smoked a lil hit of hash and blew it out the window before walking to the bus stop in the rain on my way to Oakland High (circa 1978-79)
Right on!!
If musical notes were painted with a brush on a canvas..... This is what I imagine how it would sound..... Pure Art!
Fun song to play and sing. The Melotron on this is so beautiful. Most understated wah performance in history. Mahogany Rush what a class act. Thank you for posting. Peace.
What a monster chops for days. Never bereft of links

Anything mr.frank Marino plays and writes is just down right awesome
So I'm working with this square who's eyeing retirement. We be chattin about music and he lays this trip on me. Far out! How have I never heard this before? Sublime!!!
This is because you're an IDIOT.

How Rush overshadowed MR in the Canadian scene is beyond me.
LOVE this guy- and praying daily for his health, as he requested.
Had a 70 chevelle with eight track it was kicking " Party on "
I just wanna thank Canada for Frank Marino, Mahogany Rush & Rush.
Sublime Rockers all . . .
As a Canadian, I apologize for Justin Bieber.
Thank you, Canada, for the genius who is Frank Marino...RUSH...MOXY...Bruce Cockburn...and early Neil Young...anything he did prior to the horrible 'Rockin' in the Free World'...
I'll have some April Wine as well......
Please don’t forget Rik Emmett and Triumph!
Don’t forget PT
So true it's began to rain for California it rained so much it filled up our reservoirs in a month, thanks Frank get well... Great music 🎶
Thank you Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush...........I saw your band back in the mid 80's at the Coyote Club on Clairmont Blvd. when this bar was still open and a great place to see your favorite band...outstanding show Mahogany Rush! I never saw you before but ever since....your the man!
Frank holds his own as a musician against anyone
Still to this day... amazing.
Brings back memories of my younger days. Love this!
Well what can I say apart from wow, was introduced to the man from my uncle and this song just uniquely touched my soul I was completely speechless , the live version at the agora is epic, sends shivers down my spine some beautiful guitar work Frank Marino an absolute legend 33 year old fan for life now 🎸 🎶
I love this tune..dam just takes me there!
and when he did this live, it was even more emotional and left unforgettable memories
My favourite song from Mahogany Rush. I love the fade out guitar solo with the drums feeding.
Lord thank you for all the musicians but most of all this one love you
Thanks Russ.....I really, really appreciate the genius of Frank Marino and the band Mahogany Rush !
I love the tune Babylon as much as this one ( ~"
Thanks Grace...you are quite welcome....
So fine🌞
Beautiful song!!!
Yes this truly is one of the most beautiful songs of all times. Thank you Frank for making such great music. A fan for life.
One of the best song he does. Some songs you don't forget when you hear it you will know. Right on
I'm loving it, what brilliance.
This song has always touched me I loved the jazz feeling ending,I bought this album when it came out.In fact I bought every album Frank made starting with Maxoom,every year I waited for the new MR album to come out they were all great I was never disappointed.Franks music is music I always connected with.Thanks Frank for all the great music!

As far as I know Frank ain't dead.
Except that no one in Radiohead has the chops to do a perfect jazz solo like Frank does here.
Frank's songs were OK at best but nothing like what jimi hendrix experience did
@@jerrywoods4066 That's an opinion son. You're far too young to appreciate either.....I've seen Frank and MR 5 times lad, they are an amazing band and still killing it.
@@mhartung8335 hey you, I'm retired and seen frank 4 times, twice in the seventies. And he was not a great song writer sonny
It is indeed a song of beauty...in my top 5 Frank faves...Russ
What a sound, has a feel of its own!
Love the jazz ending.
One of the Great Guitarists! Jimi Hendrix and Frank Marino and Robin Trower! Both Frank and Robin really took Jimi somewhere
Into the 4th Dimension of Electronics to Electric Guitar!
Mr.frank marino is deffinetly the most kick ass guitarist in the world and has been for a very long time, he is up there with Mr. Jimi Hendrix, no kidding
Thanks for the post, God this song takes me back, So glad I was able to see Frank in 83
MH IV was my introduction to Frank Marino - Absolutely Astounding Musician!
Sorry to hear about Frank being sick and retired now. Really one of the greatest of all time.
Frank Marino is the closest thing to Jimi that there will ever be, he's fucking amazing.
is there a better way to relax, if you are a child of the novelty you know.
MY HEART SINGS MY SOUL SAYS I LOVE THIS .CAN YOU EVER FORGET THIS GREAT STAR HE HAS BECAME PART OF THE COSMIC BROTHER FROM EARTH TO INFINITY TERRY BROOKS AND STRANGE
A very special friend turned me on to MR.👍✌️
Forgot How good this song is,, heck, its a great album,, Thanks...
Goodbye Frank, sorry you have left the stage, for the last time.
I hope you get to enjoy life, do some things you didn't have time for before now.

TOP TRACK JUST STARTING LISTENING TO FRANK MARINO AFTER A 40 YEAR GAP
Fantastic, great one Frank, I love your playing, beautifull, is that mellotron? What a sound!
Hey. I came along since 1984 in Finland. I say no more.
Uncle Frank has always been a little underrated....he's the greatest after Hendrix😎😎😋😋
Robert Cubinelli Hendrix is 2nd to Frank imho
A little underrated? He’ll always be #1 in my book. I think he knows he’s great & doesn’t need the accolades other musicians do. He’s more worried about his art & fans then he is about pleasing a record label. And that’s what I love about him, other than his awesome voice & guitar playing. I am so glad he’s still touring.
Nobody but Frank could create a song this Beautiful! Your video adds to the enjoyment! Soothing Rain............
Outstanding.
❤
Beautiful!
AWESOME as usual
I have this LP since 1976 Love it.
I've seen Jimi Hendrix & Robin Trower live
But not Frank
He's sort of a synthesized Hendrix
Positively Part of My Hendrix Triumverat.
I'm a guitar player, but kick ass drummer!!!!!
Så Jävla skööööön låt!
Some of Frank's best vocals.
Sweet
Great
One of my favorite Frank songs if you like this You'll love Moonlight Lady on the strange Universe album
the storysong its
You know I messed up, but now I’m sorry…
So You..
Mmmmmmmm!!!
It never rains in Sout California 😉🤫
Seen him many times, smokes the music they play on the radio. Better than pat travers, Ronnie Montrose, Ritchie blackmore. He is way past all these guys.
Or whaaattthhh?
Good song. I prefer the Hendrix version, called "Waterfall."
Tuff choice brother.......Be well
'May This Be Love'. The same vibe for sure - but that's about it.
Been a fan since the 70's...Thats a long time ago. But to this day I can still put on Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush Live, 4, Juggernaut, etc...and still feel the same way I did when I first bought it...and thats happy, free, and content.
