hey greg! first off, welcome to the strange universe...great to have you as our newest member! second...great to have you as a friend here on myspace! last but not least...as i said on franks site..i really like your version of 1000 nights. rock on! russ.

 

I loved Frank Marino's music since I was 16 and heard him on Don Kirshner's Rock Concert (re-run) in 1976.
I was blown away by New Rock and Roll! I bought a original Big Muff that day and 'became' frank! LOL
I played through a 200 Watt Traynor YBA-3 tube head and a 4 12 cab with a 1968 SG Custom (the Triple Pickup w/ Maestro Vibrola) into a Vox ry Baby, Electro Harmonix Small Stone and Big Muff and Univox tape Echo and just emulated every Frank lick I could. It came so naturally to me. I was known around detroit as little Frank Marino! I added an A/DA Flanger and by age 18 that was it. We played the entire LIVE album at every show PLUS all my originals were essentially Mahogany Rush sounding songs with Frank Marino solos. I played like that for another two years until i incorporated jazz and classical into my style live. I had been listening and playing it for many years but was afraid to let people hear it LIVE. But I finally did and kept it that way for the better part of my career until just recently. Figured it was time to be 'myself' or 'my alter-ego-self' again. i never abandoned the Source of my style just let it run in the background. Now at age 47, i don't have the dexterity to play it well anymore. But at every show we do, I play a Tribute to Frank Marino Solo.
and We say to the audience -"in honor of Frank Marino, here is Greg Alan Moore on guitar"
