Today I've been spinning a fantastic audience recording of this legendary, but underrated guitarist. I've been buying Marino/Mahogany Rush albums since 1977 and have a few unofficial live recordings and this is by far the best audience capture in circulation among bootleg collectors. Frank may have found the Lord in the last few years, but he's also rediscovered his immense chops. Hendrix was always a huge influence and if that wasn't obvious he drives the point home by playing a 20+ minute version of "Voodoo Chile" along with extended versions of "Red House", "Are you experienced" and the rarely played "Axis: Bold as Love". While I like Hendrix a lot, I would have preferred that he played some more of his own material. But these are minor complaints because overall this is a killer show.
