    after seeing Frank play in Shreveport LA in 1975 I went out and bought a guitar. I am still trying to get that sound. One of the best ever to pick up the instrument. The feel, the vibe the real playing. Long Live FM & MR!

This song seriously has been catapulted to my top 10 favorite songs. And probably the most emotional guitar playing I've ever heard.

    Prepare to be blown away? That's an understatement. I'm not sure I've ever heard of a faster(and cleaner sounding) guitar soloist than Frank! Amazing, amazing guitarist. Way overlooked, possibly under the shroud of the signature guitarists(e.g. Jimmy Page, Eric Clapton, David Gilmour, etc) and the bands in the '70's from the UK and in the U.S. God bless Frank. I hope I can one day see him live in concert and be blown away!

    @Hadrorex 8 ปีที่แล้ว +31

    Many, many years ago, a friend says, "I heard a great new band, Canadian, three guys. 'Rush', I think. You gotta hear those guys, get it!" I go to the record store, hit the record rack under 'R', didn't find it. So I start the whole fucking alphabet just in case it was misplaced. Get to the 'M' section, ah, Mahogany Rush, Live. Ask the dude at the counter, he didn't know jack. Flip it over to read the back, three guys, Canadian. Maybe this is it, I buy it. They're Canadian, took it home. Slapped it on the phonograph (remember those?) Call my friend over, he cusses me out, "That ain't the band, you ass!" I turn on the album where I left off, "King Bee/Backdoor Man", first solo, his eyes almost pop out of their sockets. Tells me, "Fuck those other 'Rush' guys, these guys are lightyears better!!" I hear Getty Lee and I want to puke! Give me fingernails on a chalk-board instead, anytime! Been a Frank Marino fan since then. Been to over four dozen of his performances. Most were in Toronto venues around the university. Some were four hours long and no one ever left until he was done! Springsteen is the other who has enough material to do it without boring anyone. Gotta say very few can sling a guitar solo as melodic as Frank Marino's 'World Anthem' and his studio rendering of 'Norwegian Wood' (made pussies of the Beatles' version) and Joe Satriani's 'Always with me,always with you' LIVE! Both are absolute magic LIVE. I never buy studio-recorded music anymore, regardless of band. If it ain't a LIVE recording, it ain't getting bought. LIVE or nothing! Live performances is where a performer proves themselves. Can't hide behind lip-sync, dubs, phoney effects, Auto-tune, etc. Live recordings or nothing!

      Saw the same tour in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Frankie was too good. Made Joe Perry and company look like amatures.

    Marvelous to see these excellent comments about the unsung hero...I became a huge fan back around 1976 in Lambeth/London, Ontario, and for years could never understand why no one I knew had ever heard of Mahogany Rush. One of the greatest power trio's in history.

      I discovered him in the 80s, but have only recently realised thru TH-cam that he is still going and has gone way beyond the early Hendrix-inspired stuff that first attracted me to his music.

      I can never understand how Canada didn't consider him as their greatest export. He's right here! Aye? He snaked his was down Toronto way, Detroit, Chicago...L.A. On that Midnight Highway. But you've got him in Montreal and only play songs he played that he didn't write? I guess the music biz iz off no matter what country you come from. C'mon Frank...toss us a bone...throw out some home recordings or early club recordigs....Recor-digs...for your ole fans....before we getz too old. Love ya man. Windrose.
      This guy actually wrote me back in 99, (Remember dial up internet?) when I said, "Get off of your skinny ass and hit the road again. Ha. He did. Yes, he did. 2 old fans, Danny and me saw Frank at the HOB Chicago in 2000 and neither of us could stand. It was worth it.

    I almost forgot about Frank Marino. People used to say he was the best guitarist. I didn't hear much of him, just occasionally hear him on KPRI after midnight, and kind of being a little intimidated by it. But I was telling a friend who is a Rush fan that I confused Rush with Mahogany Rush for meany years. People would say "Rush is a great band!" and I would say "Yeah great stuff Frank Marino is the best." They would think I was just changing the subject lol. So more recently I decided to check him out, I can't believe he's not more famous. He's the real deal.

    Monster song from a monster player. FM stands in line with the greatest guitar players of all time. Like for example Roy Buchanan he did not get the recognition he deserves. But it doesn`t really matter. The music speaks for itself.

    I'm only now discovering them and I've heard a lot of different rock in my 30+ years. Just shows that I need to dig deeper and maybe go through foreign charts more. I have a killer 80's playlist I need to form (finding the best quality of each takes mad time) that will take like 10 full days to get through.

    Stories of a Hero
    (Guitar Intro)
    The time has come
    Said a young man to his bride
    The train waits outside
    And though I leave
    You know I'll keep you by my side
    She holds on a final time
    Soldier's gone to war
    Told her he's comin' home
    Soldier's gone to war
    He's gonna be known as a hero in his hometown, lord
    She stands alone
    On a platform lookin' sad
    He waves through a pane of glass
    And though she hopes
    He will be comin' home at last
    Her heart knows what's gonna pass
    Soldier has gone to war
    Don't know it, but he ain't comin' home no more
    Soldier has gone to war
    He's gonna be known as a hero in his hometown, lord
    (Guitar Solo)
    Soldier's gone to war
    Told her he's comin' home
    Soldier has gone to war
    He's gonna be known as a hero in his hometown, lord
    The paper falls to the floor from a trembling hand
    The words they burn to the soul
    And though she cries, she doesn't really understand
    The world's gone so cold
    Soldier went to war
    Told her he'd be comin' home
    Soldier's gone to war
    Gonna be a big hero in his hometown, lord
    (Transition with Heightened emotion)
    And the stories tell of bravery, yeah
    He was golden as the sun
    Well he fought for you and he fought for me, yeah
    And he died for everyone
    Stories of a hero
    Stories of a hero
    Well it seems as though the world ain't changed
    It goes on and on for years
    When men must die to be called brave
    To earn respect among their peers
    Stories of a hero
    Stories of a hero
    Well it seems as though the world don't change
    It goes on for years and years
    When men must die to be called brave
    To earn respect among their peers
    Stories of a hero
    Stories of a hero

    (Guitar Outro)
    Stories of a hero
    Stories of a hero
    Stories of a hero
    Of a hero
