70s FRANK MARINO & MAHOGANY RUSH - In 40 Minutes

A Heavy Metal Podcast - The Mighty Decibel

Welcome back to our series where we curate what we think are the best 40 minutes of music from an underrated band's career ... with headbangers and hard rockers in mind (ie. you won't be hearing many ballads!). Basically, it's what we'd put on a single vinyl release (being limited to 20 minutes per side) if we were asked to put a Best Of record together to convince the uninitiated long haired miscreant that this band is worth checking out. This episode we continue with our dedication to the recently retired guitar God - Frank Marino (and his band Mahogany Rush). Last episode we focused on Marino's hard stuff from the 80s. This episode we focus on the best material from the 70s. Note: Marino just announced his retirement from the music business, so this forms Part 2 of The Mighty Decibel's celebration of the uber-guitarist's musical career. Hail!!!
