At Least The Next Mark Farner

Jeez, Frank Marino (guitar-vocals) sure drives a real hot car. Loud as hell. Fifteen feet from a stoplight and he’s still accelerating. He even disconnected that buzzer system that makes a noise when your seat belts ain’t plugged in (noise would interfere with the radio).

At Least The Next Mark Farner

R. Meltzer

Jeez, Frank Marino (guitar-vocals) sure drives a real hot car. Loud as hell. Fifteen feet from a stoplight and he’s still accelerating. He even disconnected that buzzer system that makes a noise when your seat belts ain’t plugged in (noise would interfere with the radio). He’s gotta be the best musician behind a wheel y’ever saw.

For a performance Frank ties scarves of many colors over his white silk shirt and around his biceps and forearms where Iggy mighta used leather or fur on naked flesh. Takes kung fu lessons “to learn to become gentle.” Up close he closely resembles Greg Shaw during his psychedelic period plus a few stray pimples here and there, in other words a genu-wine wholesome youth (=what psychedelic means today in Canada). Jimmy Ayoub (bass) looks like Jimmy Ayoub and Paul Harwood (tubs) looks like Paul Harwood; in other words ditto.
