    I've been a dedicated fan for 45 years, and I can honestly say that I NEVER tire of his music. Met him once in front of the Uptown Theatre on February 23, 1983 in Kansas City. He was incredibly down to earth and appreciative of his fans. Frank, if you ever happen to read this I just want to say THANK YOU for a lifetime of wonderful music! God Bless you sir.

      I am with you! First heard Frank and Mahogany Rush during my college radio days. When Child of the Novelty showed up at the station, I was instantly hooked, and made it a part of my weekly radio show. This video is amazing, he still sounded great and his playing was still top notch. Too bad about the shoulder injury that has robbed us of this man's genius.

People may wonder why his name and music are not as "popular" or well-known as some others who aren't nearly as talented. Why? Mostly by CHOICE. He basically said the music "business" wasn't for him and that was that. RESPECT.

      It varies from song to song. Some are fiendishly difficult, others easy. It is a matter of many years of playing and singing. Sometimes you just need to put the playing on auto-play.
      I just saw an old Johnny Winter video in which the Bass Player played pretty decent harmonica while really pumping out the bass. His playing became simpler when he blew that harp, but man was he good at both at the same time. Never before have I seen that.

      Best way to practice it is in a full mirror..it allows your eyes to see your hands..it's a visual cue...if you sing at the same time..it keeps the two connected ..because your brain is no longer searching for the visual cue...like the old video games...you knew bald
      bull was gonna throw a punch because his eyes turned red..like telegraphing kinda..only in this case..its right in front of you.it stops the fight between both sides of your brain as the cue is constantly visible..TRY IT!...it works...it removes the non verbal wall keeping both sides of your brain from working together instead of fighting each other... It usually becomes more or less seamless after a month or two...try humming the lyrics first.... Just try it...all of a sudden..you'll see...you will quit turning your head trying to see what your hand is doing..as the other side of your brain will store the visual cues...then it just becomes automatic.. WITHOUT having the mirror..pro tip from planetp_4u2c

    I was fortunate to be in a band named Mammoth in Chicago in the 80's. On two different occasions we were Franks' opening act-once at Club Dimensions in Calumet City and once at the Colony Theater in Chicago. I was a fan since the first live album and he was one of my main guitar influences, so it was very special to watch him from backstage! Awesome musician, even nicer guy. Rock on Frank!

      Who do you think can play better on the national level, a guitarist whose played ten years or 50? Of course Frank has gotten better so long as he's been playing and doesn't have arthritis in his hands. Listen to Joe Satriani now compared to the 1980's - same thing. The only guitarists I've seen who diminish as they get older are those who lose the fire of their youth or don't have the health and fitness of their youth. Also check out Al DiMeola on his most recent live concerts. You'll see that nobody can touch him either. He's a giant and better now than when he was playing in Return to Forever.

Someone on the crew new the Frank's light man and we got back stage passes.
      Frank had his roadies, who were driving to the next show, drive us back to where we were working, which was about an hour away.
      One of the roadies told me that the only reason Frank played rock and roll was to finance his drag racing hobby. Turns out he was an excellent mechanic, he just didn't have a fuel injector with him.

    I’m standing inside a silver room
    A sound inside my head like a sonic boom
    A preacher with a dagger purple and black
    Is tearing sacred pictures
    On my naked back
    Hey preacher, and he smiles in return
    I think you wanna see me burn
    You’re squeezing out my blood
    Please tell me why
    But he proceeded to break down and cry
    Oh does anyone know the answer
    Tell me Lord, does anyone know the answer
    I’m floating beyond a cosmic dream
    A feeling in my throat makes me wanna scream
    A lover who has no love to spare
    Is ripping out the roots of my leather hair
    Hey lover, and she made a drunken face
    Well put yourself in my place
    Please tell me why you wanna see me hurt at all
    But she proceeded to break down and bawl
    Oh please does someone know the answer
    Oh does anybody know the answer
    Well I’m old
    I’m tired and cold
    I’m dripping like a rainy day
    I’m searching for a being who’s seen what I’ve seen
    And I know I’ll find him someday
    I know I’ll find him someday
    I know I’ll find him someday
