I Heard Somebody Singin' Sweet and Soulful on the Radio...

An Excellent Out of Print Frankie Miller Live CD for You!

This was Originally Released way back in 1994...
It's Actually Made Up of Three Different Recordings 
from Three Different Years:
1977, 78 and 79!

It's Pieced Together Very Well, 
To Make It Seem Like One Concert!

Frankie Starts Out With Acoustic Numbers 
on the First Three Songs, 
Then Brings The Band Out 
For The Rest of the Songs...

This Is a Great Sampler For 
Those Of You Just Gettin' Into Frankie's Music!

He Does a Little Bit Of Everything on This CD:
His Own Songs Plus Covers of Songs 
from Bob Dylan to John Lennon and Others...

Acoustic to Soulful to Rockin' - Frankie Miller Does It All!

Enjoy and Play It LOUD!

Should I Hang Up, Or...

Here's One of those Projects I've Been Workin' On...

The Hear Rock City Frankie Miller Music Appreciation Society (or the H.R.C.F.M.M.A.S.) in Conjunction with Rocket Records Is Proud to Present:


Frankie Miller - He'll Have To Go (Live) E.P.


This E.P. Is For Listenin' Purposes ONLY! and Is Not For Sale! As Far As I Know: NONE Of These Tracks Has Been Officially Released.

It's For ALL You Frankie Fans AND Especially Those That Aren't, Yet?

Ok, All That Out of the Way...

So, What Do You Get?


There's 5 Songs that make up This Unofficial Release:

Track 1 is That Old Song Made Famous by Jim Reeves... You Know, "Put Your Sweet Lips A Little Closer To The Phone..."  Well, Here You Have Frankie on Vocals and Acoustic Guitar, a Piano and a Sax. And The Way Mr. Miller Does This...You'll Wanna Get a Beer and Cry In It - I Swear! It'll Break Your Heart! You'd Swear He Was On The Phone With That Girl Right Then and There!

Track 2 is The Same Song, BUT, with a Full Band in a Crowded Bar or Club somewhere, with Folks Singin' Along! A Very Different Vibe and Take on The Song...

Track 3 is the Old Wilson Pickett Song: Midnight Hour. Frankie does This One Pretty Much Straight Up with a Full Band and Electric Guitar Solo as well!

Track 4 is The Stones' Dead Flowers. Frankie Does an Outstandin' Job on This One With a Full Band and all... One of the Better Versions of This Song I've Heard!

Track 5 is Must Be Love. It's a Stone Cold Rocker! With Brian Robertson on Guitar and Simon Kirke on Drums...

***********************

Now, I WANT EVERYONE to D/L THIS! 

Take a Half Hour (It Clocks in at just over 26 Mins.) And Just LISTEN! The Tracks Build in Intensity (Is That The Right Word?) From Beginnin' to End!

 And It's a Great (But, Small) Sample of the Great Talent that Was

Frankie Miller!

Enjoy and Play It LOUD!

Let's Be Frank(ie)


 Here's another broadcast from BBC Radio.
Again we're back to 1979.
One of Scotland's favourite sons.With that classic smokey,slightly rough Rock voice.
It's Frankie.
What we get here is a cover of a Bob Marley classic.
A cover of a John Lennon tune.
Bob Seger covered,Ain't Got No Money on his Stranger In Town album.
Frankie plays it here but he inserts a bit of Bob into the song.
It's all cool stuff.

It's Miller Time!...

 

Here's a Great Frankie Miller Concert from the Mid 80's!

Frankie and His Band played Parkpop, a Big Festival in The Netherlands, in the Summer of 1986, and it was captured on the Radio! (Probably that Radio Veronica?)

For those of You that Don't Think You've Heard Frankie - Well You Probably Have! Tons of Musicians have Covered Songs He Has Written: Like Ain't Got No Money by Bob Seger, or the Country Hit I'd Lie to You For Your Love by The Bellamy Brothers (But Frankie Does the Rock Version Here!), or the song that Starts This Concert: A Fool In Love which was Covered by UFO... And The List Goes On and On! Plus his songs have been used in Countless Movies like All The Right Moves and Light of Day!

Frankie also Sang the Duet with Phil Lynott on Thin Lizzy's Still In Love With You from the Nightlife album...

He was such a Gifted Songwriter and Singer Until 1994, when he suffered a Brain Hemorrhage that left him in a coma for 5 months, after which he was unable to speak. He has been through extensive rehabilitation and is doing better, but is still unable to perform anymore! There's a BBC Documentary about Frankie called Stubborn Kinda Fellow that's well worth trackin' down and watchin'.  

As Great a Songwriter as he was, he still covered other's songs as well - like with this show - You'll recognize the old Temptations song Shakey Ground... 

When Frankie talks he has a Scottish Accent, But When He Sings - Man What a Voice: Soulful as they come!

The ONLY Thing about this Concert You'll be Disappointed in is the Last Song - It Fades out After only a Couple Minutes!

Enjoy and Play It LOUD!
