Title: Didn't work for me
Review: After reading all of the great reviews on this site, I had to get this. Like many of the reviewers here, I have been listening to many of the great guitarists over the years. Unfortunately I cannot say that this is a recording that I can recommend. Frank Marino does have a high level of technical skills - he can play all of the notes required in the music. He can play with dazzling speed. What I found lacking was emotion. At times, I found the music derivative of Hendrix and Duane Allman but the emotion those players were able to wring from their instruments was not there for me in this recording. Without emotion, the long guitar breaks are not memorable and simply fall flat to me.If you are into Frank Marino, you would probably enjoy this. The sound quality is very good and the song selection covers a range of many years for Marino and MR, so your favorites are probably represented here.
