Mahogany Rush

A bit of trivia here; How did Frank come up with the name of Mahogany Rush? BTW, Juggernaut is all killer, no filler. Love the guitar/solo on "Ditch Queen"...

Putting on my pristine copy of "Tales of the Unexpected" now...…….

I wore out my “World Anthem” during a time when I think almost nobody else I knew had ever even heard of him.   Absolutely loved that album.  When I was a kid I used to say something silly to the effect that after Jimi died his ghost (or demon maybe...) split - half entered Robin Trower and Frank Marino got the other half.  

@nmmusicman. I guess I always thought it was his fretboard was made of mahogany.   But who knows....

Since the mid 70's I have seen Frank Marino 5 times through the years. The 1st 2 time were around 1976 at a small club called the Hollywood Palace just outside of Baltimore. The show was sponsored by an old radio station WKTK 105 and the door cover charge was $1.05 each night. This was my 1st time seeing him live and he was the best guitarist that I have ever seen. I have been a dedicated follower ever since the beginning of Mahogany Rush. There are a lot of great guitarist, but he has remained my favorite for 43 years.
