Yes, Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush & nobody mentioned Gary Moore! 😎

[who knows what evil?]

Is that a Black version of the Canadian band?...

Hardly...bring yourself up to speed.

[BobL]

I can’t say that I know of any.

[Psalm 73]

"Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush."

Nice.

And who ever thinks about John Mayall?
Or David LaFlamme?
Or Richard Thompson?

“Nonsuch” is good, my preference for “Skylarking” is that it was the released the same year I was married.

Andy Partridge is a great writer. Did you know that he provided a song for The Monkees 2016 album “Good Times!”? “You Bring the Summer”

[who knows what evil?]

Is that a Black version of the Canadian band?...

Mahogany Rush IS also a Canadian band, though...

The Good Rats

Angel

Duke Jupiter

Have you ever seen The Worn Flints perform? They’re from Ohio, and they put on quite a show.

Andy Pratt

Fabulous Poodles

Belly

Back in 1975 I bought tickets to see Frank Marino,Queen,and Mountain at one show in Charleston South Carolina. Can you believe it they didn't sell enough tickets and the show was cancelled. I did receive a full refund.

Mahogany Rush’s ‘Loved By You’...Frank Marino’s guitar can wake the dead.

Saw Angel opening for Rush in Maine decades ago...hell of a show.

Speaking of Fleetwood Mac, Peter Green was the bomb IMHO

I never really liked them after he split.

Yeah, Green wrote “black magic woman” not Santana

RIP Alvin Lee, a true rock God

[who knows what evil?]

Damn.

I remember the scuttle but going around back in the 1970s was that Marino dropped acid and after his trip he could play like Hendrix.

[FreedomPoster]

I saw him with Utopia, touring behind the release of that album. It was great!

[dznutz]

The man was amazing, I prolly saw him 20 times

I never saw him play. How fortunate you were to see such a great guitarist, and humble man, from what I have read.
