A classmate in my school, 40 years ago, wrote Frank Marino down on paper, and I should look it up in the record store. I have never regretted my classmate's advice. I am so fortunate to listen to Frank Marino's music before I leave this world and go to heaven. Thank you so much, Life, that this happened to me.
Yer right. The original album mix is every bit as psychedelic as this Frank Marino Masterpiece, "Land of a 1000 Nights" is Musically. Frank Marino... Mahogany Rush... IS STILL BLOWING MY MIND after all these years. W O W !!!
Reading the comments and most say " I used to get HIGH and listen to this" on various listening devices. My question is why aren't you getting HIGH and listening to this musical masterpiece NOW........I'm 72 and just did a bowl of Blue Dream and listening on Bose EarBuds......Peace
Frank Marino was and is still, one of the most not talked about guitarist yet one of the best ever period. I saw him in concert many times seeing that I am 65 and he always blew my mind musically and solo wise, why he is not mentioned with all the greats is beyond me and I saw them as well, and to be honest he blew allot of them away. Thanks Frank for your work and inspiration
You know Jimi Hendrix spirit came to him in a comma and taught him how to play and when he came out of the comma he could play guitar like that and he never played before that at least that's the legend I always heard
Coda Tall Tree,exactly, the best guitarist in my unbiased opinion, im 56 almost 57, been to around 450 concerts some of those were bands I’d seen at least once before, I’ve seen some legends onstage, this man just a better guitarist, great album
Frank Marino has to be one of the best guitarist of all time..He has to be in the hall of fame...He is right there with Jimi Hendrix..The Canadian version.
Had never heard of this band until today when I chatted up a man from Chicago in my Arkansas Walmart who said they were his favorite. Music bringing us all together
Yeah! And then you had to hear some ass-hole advertising " Have you been in a Car accident?" While there is no more oil For advanced Industrial technocratic like " Uncle Sam" and the Freemasons!
If you could say Marino's sound came from Hendrix it was that Marino listened to Hendrix as many of us aspiring rock guitarist did in those years. Marino is one of the best studio techs as well as guitar artist and producers. He said it came easy and became therapy for a bad drug experience He had. His lack of notoriety was because He refused to play the industries games which has made his followers most loyal. Its not about fame and fortune but the music. Rock on Frank.
Frank Marino's sound didn't come from, well all musicians were inspired down the line, Frank loved hendrix like most of us do, but Frank has his own style, with the exception of his early album or two Mahogany Rush, Frank was born with the voice he has, he never attempted to sound like hendrix, some other guitarist like Robin Trower tried a little to hard, not putting Trower down, Frank came down the pike after Hendrix, that's why Frank, to many didn't get the recognition he deserves, criminally underrated in my opinion, Frank is the best guitarist, I love music so I'm not on here trying to talk all of that, thanks for posting this, it's killer music man
I was playing football on a Fort Lauderdale beach tripping on orange barrel acid when I heard this and dropped the ball and sat the fuck down and was amazed!Totally remember it all like it was yesterday.
Another classic example of a group unappreciated and underrated. So much talent across every genre of music in that time frame. These classic artists took a backseat to Billy Joel and others, and never had the air time they truly deserved.
Frank and I were buddies in the 70's. I am going to try to put a pic. of us at the Kennedy Center with Kansas and a little known band called Queen in 1975. I still have my backstage pass. Nice!
Steve Gadd, is that you? 😏 In case it is, the drum work on Aja was/is mind blowing. And Fifty Ways was an early obsession for me, as a young drummer then.
Frank was the best at it in the studio he progressed with every release n in concert he excelled to heights far beyond anyone at that time n deserves mention among the greats as an innovator of heavy as u can get psychedelic free form jazz rock blues unparalleled to none😂❤
This is my favorite song of Frank Moreno and mahogany rush his music was way ahead of it's time I still haven't heard anything at all that will top this particular song I guess my second favorite song of all time is Black Sabbath National acrobat and my third favorite song is ZZ tops tell it and I need you tonight and watching Stevie Ray Vaughan play the Voodoo Child Frank Marino I discovered his music back in 1972 drove over the road Trucking for 38 years and all the above went with me Frank is awesome always will be he's one of the best guitar players I've ever heard and I've heard them all from Zydeco Blues to classical Latino acoustical Frank Marino and mahogany rush they know how to lay it down man
WarHog38 Having experienced acid, in the LSD form, I can say, "I already knew that." But acid rock was also a sound. Not just in the lyrics, or the beat. But in the sound of the instruments together. Especially in the guitar. It wasn't just an American sound... After all, Frank Marino is Canadian. Yes, it was started in the 60's, but it continued on, all the way to the 80's. As for European sound, I'm a big fan of Yngwie Malmsteen's guitar licks!
gglaw42 Maybe "acid," isn't just cut n dry. Music genres evolve all the time. I think the music, including instrumentals, could define music as being acid, by a certain sound made by instruments, or maybe a mixing process in the recording of the music. I never said Yngwie Malmsteen was acid. Speed metal maybe. But Malmsteen is from Sweden, a european country. That was what I was pointing at. I think music like Mahogany Rush, Robin Trower, and others, is in an acid category. How about "No. 9," from the Beatles? Or Iron Butterfly's "Inagodadavida?" Don't sound effects created by the instruments played in a song qualify, as much as other "sounds," recorded in a song?
Frank is the best of the best, for health reason I recently read he is no longer performing ,listen to his song Ditch Queen just amazing his solo runs you will be shocked how good he is on that song.
Yes and he is often unfairly written of as a Jimi Hendrix clone which is annoying, obviously there are touches of Hendrix as an inspiration in there at points but he has his own distinct and unique voice. I only started listening to him a few months back and he is indeed seriously underrated and this is a fantastic song.
Frank was a big star in Canada, where he is from. But no, he got little air time in the US. I never understood why that was, except he wasn't signed up with a US based recording corp., so he was kept out of the mainstream. But that didn't prevent his abilities from crossing the "Canuck," border! There are many of us that have been fans of Frank since our youth in the 70's. That's right young un's, gramps rocks out!
James Lanning I'm from Ireland originally, I heard of Frank years ago when reading an article on Hendrix 'clones'. I feel having listened to him now a lot it's not a fair assertion regarding the man.
jharekcarnelian I agree bud. While Frank may be a fan of Hendrix, or maybe even play some of his tunes, he has his own music as well. And He has his own playing style and his own take, so that even when he plays a hendrix tune, it's not a "cookie cutter," copy. And that's a good thing! One could make such an assertion about other guitar players. As I said, Yngwie Malmsteen was a huge fan of Hendrix. But I wouldn't call him a "clone," either.
James Lanning Nor I, although Yngwie has never really moved me much. I appreciate his obviously huge ability but he is not really my cup of tea in other respects.
Haven't listened to this since I was kid. Still love it..."Cold, so cold I can't pretend - the man in the outfield with the bonnet head..."----Mohogany Rush Still Rocks
When I saw him in Dallas in 2007, he opened with this. Me and my friend were going ape shit, couldn't believe he was playing it. He always plays Strange Universe the song, but this was a surprise.
If you want to introduce a friend to Frank and Mahogany Rush's music -start with this one! It will blow their mind for life and turn them into an instant fan. It did me,
A staple on any playlist of psychedelic rock of the 70's. Combine Marino with some Pink Floyd and Hendrix, throw in a little Trower and don't forget the Jeff Beck. With a little "enhancement", your mind is ready for the journey.
Marino is so one of a kind, his music always takes you to another dimension! I Thank God this music is posted on you-tube, I can't get enough of it! Rock On My Brothers!
As soon as I heard the intro to this song, I read your comment. I immediately grabbed my studio headphones and haven't turned back. As a musician who prides himself on knowing deep cuts and obscure artists, I'm disappointed in myself for not being familiar with these guys. But... I know them, now!
Excellent guitarist and creative artist,one of the best ever and deserving of much respect if thats even possible in these days of manufactured crap & jive that some call music...thanks for posting real talent,a great band back in the amazing 70s
A few of years ago when I had a desk top computer and surround sound with speakers up by ceiling 1 in 3 corners 1 on top shelf of desk and subwolfer on shelf underneath for gaming I played robin Trower..Malmsteen.. Nugent to name a few. This is fabulous on a system like that
Frank Marino and Robin Trower were the heir apparents to Hendrix after he died. I always thought it was interesting how they each emulated different aspects of Hendrix style. Marino's playing always sounded darker to me that Trower's.
I remember that era well. I enjoyed both and I guess I never gave it much thought, but you are correct! It turned out that nobody could fill Jimi's shoes, but it was certainly interesting listening to the world's best guitarists try.
Stevie Ray Vaughn was another guitar phenom who emulated Hendrix and was as good as Trower or Marino. Stevie Ray captured a bit more of the blues side of Hendrix' style.
Als ich Mahagoni Rush mit diesem Wahnsinns Song zum ersten Mal hörte glaubte ich Jimi Hendrix gab Frank Marino aus dem Himmel ein paar Tips !!!! Dieses Stück kann niemand wiederholen ! Sensationell !
***** Mahogany Rush and Captain Beyond. Definitely great stuff. Awesome guitar work. Shame Rhino passed away a couple of years ago. Captain Beyond is playing again some with a diff. lineup.
+dyr234 Sir, you have primo taste! Captain Beyond's first album re-arranged my brain. Rhino Reinhardt and Ritchie Blackmore got me into playing guitar. Tales of the spanish warrior is one of my top 5 along with Raging river of fear.
+dyr234 Also Rod Evans was sued by Deep Purple in the 80's for reforming another Deep Purple. Rod Evans was singer and he had other musicians that I have never heard of play under the Deep Purple name. Deep Purple sued him for over $600,000 and won. Rod Evans hasn't appeared publicly since that. He was approached by Rhino sometime in the 2000's to reform Captain Beyond, Rhino died in 2012 and it never happened. This is all from Wikipedia, so I don't know how accurate it is.
Makes me wanna hook up my new guitar to a flanger, distortion and phaser with some digital delay,love these guitar sound's,feel like l',m out of this world,awesome fusion guitar.
Frank wrote composed also played Bass Drums and record all at an early age of 16 Genius laid the many foundation to rock & metal also was great Jazz Guitarist Inspired many but didn't get the recognition he deserved Steve Vie and company have accredited Frank Marion on occassions.
Summer of 75' I was 7 years old went to the mall with my older brother who was 14 he bought two albums 'Strange Universe' by Mahogany Rush and 'In Trance' by the Scorpions (w/Uli Jon Roth on guitar). Couple of weeks later he brought home a tape of 'Visions of the Emerald Beyond' that was a good year. I have a cool brother. Thanks bro!
Wow 😯 great comparison I seen Monster Magnet in San Francisco (Warfield) In 92-93 they were opening for Soundgarden (badmotorfinger tour) And Monster was on Spine of God Amazing life changing night for me
Frank on acid. Actually frank doesn't need acid he's got his guitar! One of the best guitarists to roam the planet Earth and this strange universe. EVER!!!!
Great, underrated song! I included this song in my book "Greatest Misses: Deep Cuts and Forgotten Songs from the Shadows of Classic Rock." I included some quotes from Mr. Marino himself. Enjoy.
same here this song just blows it away my kids can't believe that its my kind of music but then they agree that we had fucking good music in the seventies when I name the songs they try to hum or play most of the big groups of the seventies are still played on radio and by groups doing covers seventies were the best heaven the disco music is better than what comes out on the radio
I remember getting this tune on an 8 track tape turned it on and my southern born mother put a halt to it till she got out of car we proceeded to rock on !!!!!
I never heard this song, but I recognize the album cover, my brother Jim was a rocker also and definitely had this, I remember seeing it in his collection.
Saw Finkadelic (sic) open for Frank at Man and His World 1974, he blew everyone away. Saw him open for Rory in Tronna Sept. 1975, too loud but he reproduced the Hendrix in the West Red House to a note, incredible.
A classmate in my school, 40 years ago, wrote Frank Marino down on paper, and I should look it up in the record store. I have never regretted my classmate's advice. I am so fortunate to listen to Frank Marino's music before I leave this world and go to heaven. Thank you so much, Life, that this happened to me.
IF THIS WAS THE ONLY SONG IN THE WORLD TO LISTEN TO I WOULD STILL BE VERY HAPPY TO HAVE THIS ONE SONG TO LISTEN TO!!!
YES THIS SONG TOOK YOU TO ANOTHER WORLD BACK THEN..AND STILL DOES TODAY...A MASTERPIECE.
@@ratter531 This song rips all the way! Couple this with Tales of a Spanish Warrior and I'm satisfied!
@@kpete9219 Frank Marino is a guitar god.
@@ratter531 Yep!
Right on Brother, Nuff Said !!!!!
Still one of the best "headphone" songs ever!!
Exactly what it was intended for... A trip inside your mind!
listening on headphones eight now, cant wait to see him again in Milwaukee!!
Yer right.
The original album mix is every bit as psychedelic as this Frank Marino Masterpiece, "Land of a 1000 Nights" is Musically.
Frank Marino... Mahogany Rush...
IS STILL BLOWING MY MIND after all these years.
W O W !!!
Try his album: visions of the big two
Frank was always so underrated
Reading the comments and most say " I used to get HIGH and listen to this" on various listening devices. My question is why aren't you getting HIGH and listening to this musical masterpiece NOW........I'm 72 and just did a bowl of Blue Dream and listening on Bose EarBuds......Peace
65 and droping hash on top of my weed, peace ,my all-time fav song. You think he wasn't going to blakn his room

@@robertjohnston8567 So true, Frank is beyond amazing.
Bought that album in “Rock Fantasy” Middletown, NY back in 2010. Got my mind fkn melted. Proud owner of every Mahogany Rush’s vinyl record.
Had never heard of this band until today when I chatted up a man from Chicago in my Arkansas Walmart who said they were his favorite. Music bringing us all together
A Mile Stone 👍😲
What a monstrously heavy rocking song.
This was extremely heavy duty for the 70s. Mahogany Rush, is my personal favorite Canadian rock band.
+Fred and Patty Chandler Was such a mind blowing tune back then.
I was 17 and they Fucken Rock, Mahogany Rush most Underrated Band ever
Have you heard of Sabbath?
It's better in the original Klingon though.
It is better in the original Klingon version.
Spooky, atmospheric and totally brilliant.
I use to get high and drive around listening to this on 8-TRACK !
Did the Roadrunner find you?
Lol... hey brother
Yeah! And then you had to hear some ass-hole advertising " Have you been in a Car accident?" While there is no more oil
For advanced Industrial technocratic like
" Uncle Sam" and the Freemasons!
HA,HA,HA,HA🤣🤣🤣
Did you ever get the Road Runner?
Hendrix would have loved this
I fully agree! Very Hendrix inspired.

@@Todd918 FM's compositions and guitarwork are definately identical to Hendrix's.😎
Land of 1000 Nights is still one of my favorites by FM and MR.
I was playing football on a Fort Lauderdale beach tripping on orange barrel acid when I heard this and dropped the ball and sat the fuck down and was amazed!Totally remember it all like it was yesterday.
Orange Barrel now that brings back memories!
Another classic example of a group unappreciated and underrated. So much talent across every genre of music in that time frame. These classic artists took a backseat to Billy Joel and others, and never had the air time they truly deserved.
Been listening since 1976! Anyone else?
This is Targeted Individual's Anthem! I never thought I'd be living the lyrics. Smh
Wore out several 8-track tapes in the car back in the mid 1970's
Frank and I were buddies in the 70's. I am going to try to put a pic. of us at the Kennedy Center with Kansas and a little known band called Queen in 1975. I still have my backstage pass. Nice!
Holy crap, I saw this show.....MR, Kansas and Queen in Lewiston Maine for .....$5!!!! One of the best shows I've ever seen!
Frank is the master of the guitar.
@@guitarkis4969 am from Lewiston/Auburn. Couldn't get home from school for this show - 45 years later I still regret it...
F incredible. This is their BEST. I SAW THEM with Black Sabbath and Montrose RIP

In case it is, the drum work on Aja was/is mind blowing. And Fifty Ways was an early obsession for me, as a young drummer then.
I saw them with Queen and Kansas during Queens' Sheer Heart Attack Tour. What an awesome show.
Frank Marino is one of the best guitar players I've ever seen that never got the recognition he deserved guitar magazine compared him to Jimi Hendrix

It's always something
isn't it?
Maxoom
Child Of The Novelty

Three albums that
were released on the
20th Century Records.
Listen to the 1978
Album Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush.
Almost 50 years and it is still awesome!
Got to see him 7 times almost 8. Had tickets a couple of years ago but tour was canceled. The best guitarist in my opinion.
One of my all time favorite Mahogany Rush songs Frank Marino is a bad ass guitar player
Frank was the best at it in the studio he progressed with every release n in concert he excelled to heights far beyond anyone at that time n deserves mention among the greats as an innovator of heavy as u can get psychedelic free form jazz rock blues unparalleled to none😂❤
I'm only now stumbling across this after 55 years of listening to classic rock and plenty of it being Canadian. Better late than never.
I just discovered this through an article with the guitar player. Solid state amp and a huge board of homemade pedals in the 70s. Love it
This is my favorite song of Frank Moreno and mahogany rush his music was way ahead of it's time I still haven't heard anything at all that will top this particular song I guess my second favorite song of all time is Black Sabbath National acrobat and my third favorite song is ZZ tops tell it and I need you tonight and watching Stevie Ray Vaughan play the Voodoo Child Frank Marino I discovered his music back in 1972 drove over the road Trucking for 38 years and all the above went with me Frank is awesome always will be he's one of the best guitar players I've ever heard and I've heard them all from Zydeco Blues to classical Latino acoustical Frank Marino and mahogany rush they know how to lay it down man
If any of you younger folks wanted to know what acid rock was in the 70's, this is as good example as you can find!
Long live acid!

Don't sound effects created by the instruments played in a song qualify, as much as other "sounds," recorded in a song?
that's deep....I agree with everyone.peace
James Lanning right on
Who in the hell would give this thumbs down! I bought this album when it first came out and it is as good today as it was then, Never gets old!!!!
Не гони, пацанчик.
Frank is the best of the best, for health reason I recently read he is no longer performing ,listen to his song Ditch Queen just amazing his solo runs you will be shocked how good he is on that song.
What a cool, hard rock power groove. The band is musically so tight, and Frank is a genuine guitar virtuoso.
My Man Frank !!!❤ God bless our trespassed for to long amazing nights !!! Rest in peace. Cheyenne ❤
Rest in peace Gary !!! Thanks for the Mahogany Rush t shirt , from the Live Album U luckily went to see FM play at that very best. show🎉🎉 Cheyenne

One of the coolest lead guitar solos put down on tape.

Summer of 75' I was 7 years old went to the mall with my older brother who was 14 he bought two albums 'Strange Universe' by Mahogany Rush and 'In Trance' by the Scorpions (w/Uli Jon Roth on guitar). Couple of weeks later he brought home a tape of 'Visions of the Emerald Beyond' that was a good year. I have a cool brother. Thanks bro!
One of my first Frank Marino "listens". I was shocked and impressed. Very Hendrixesque!
This is great. I can tell that Dave Wyndorff from Monster Magnet listened to this a LOT.
Wow 😯 great comparison
I seen Monster Magnet in San Francisco (Warfield)
In 92-93 they were opening for Soundgarden (badmotorfinger tour)
And Monster was on Spine of God
Amazing life changing night for me
Frank on acid. Actually frank doesn't need acid he's got his guitar! One of the best guitarists to roam the planet Earth and this strange universe. EVER!!!!
Ian Anderson bullshit music
***** your all a bunch a fucking acid heads. come back to earth and hear the shit music
*****
*****
Ian Anderson Oh yes he does need his acid to be a 3rd rank git player in this world. COME ON THE GUY IS CRAP.
***** are you on crack or just incredibly stupid?
Great, underrated song! I included this song in my book "Greatest Misses: Deep Cuts and Forgotten Songs from the Shadows of Classic Rock." I included some quotes from Mr. Marino himself. Enjoy.
Classic, Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush! This is still one of the best!
I saw them three times in the 1970's, twice at the Warner Theater in Washington D.C. They were amazing.
Space rock etalon. Fire song!🔥
Wow. I'd forgotten about these guys. I have this on vinyl from then.
Frank is on a different planet than all others...seen him so many times, every show EPIC. Love to see him in Cincy again soon...
Geil!! Jimi Hendrix Space Edition 😱 😎🤠🤯🔥👍
Album cover art was special in the 1970s.
Big Max Webster fan here. Sounds a lot like Kim Mitchell in parts of this song both on vocals and guitar.
The spirit of Jimi Hendrix
Back in 1975 I played this song for my mom.
I've had 2 dads ever since 🙂.
Very heavy indeed.
The distinctive Frank Marino and mahogany rush sound comes through loud and clear. Tour 2020 coming up!
HEAVY HEAVY TUNE !!!
Ahhhhhhh Man this takes me back, I still have this vinyl in my collection CRANK FRANK!!!!!!
this gem should have been on is videos I dont do drugs but everytime this song plays it gives me goose bumps
same here this song just blows it away my kids can't believe that its my kind of music but then they agree that we had fucking good music in the seventies when I name the songs they try to hum or play most of the big groups of the seventies are still played on radio and by groups doing covers seventies were the best heaven the disco music is better than what comes out on the radio
same here this song is incrideble
VERY VERY WELL..............................................................
I remember getting this tune on an 8 track tape turned it on and my southern born mother put a halt to it till she got out of car we proceeded to rock on !!!!!
I heard this for the first time on the South Hampton college radio station in the 70's stoned as shit and will listen to it till the end of time
Frank is legend.
Man, I wish my parents had heard of this group and gotten the vinyl XD I am sooooo enjoying discovering them! What a great band!
I never heard this song, but I recognize the album cover, my brother Jim was a rocker also and definitely had this, I remember seeing it in his collection.
Saw Finkadelic (sic) open for Frank at Man and His World 1974, he blew everyone away. Saw him open for Rory in Tronna Sept. 1975, too loud but he reproduced the Hendrix in the West Red House to a note, incredible.
Music history - love it. Thanks for posting.
brings back alot of good memories! can't get good acid rock like this nowadays!F.M. ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
