Frank did produce alice cooper's first album. He also was in a band with Al Cooper that became famous as Blood, Sweat, and Tears. He was a musician far ahead of the times and had a head for arrangement unseen in modern times. He would routinely take instruments recorded in one song and pull them off into different songs at different tempo's. Only a genius could 1) remember the individual instruments arrangement, 2) be cogniscent of the music relationship, and 3) not be bothered to re-record the part.
I am very sad Frank died so young. He was always fun. Even when he was serious; like when he fought against the banning of lyrics in Congress. He knew how to be perfectly serious with the politicians, but at the same time, show how rediculuous the whole thing was.
I would have loved to hear him using modern digital technology.
