#174
May 1 1981
Frank Marino
The Power of Rock and Roll
Genre: Rock
4 out of 5
Highlights:
Runnin’ Wild
Crazy Miss Daisy
Go Strange
The early tracks aren’t just insipid but totally unworthy of the talent that is laid on top of it.
Damn shame. Because the album is a grower.
“Stay with Me” is a solo-tastic track that just has me wishing the song was better so what Frank does is follow it up with a boogie jam that is really nothing more than an excuse to shred.
That one works. As does the Blues-breaker “Crazy Miss Daisy”. That’s a barnburner.
Then you get to “Go Strange” and you can tell that Frank is trying to melt your face off. But it’s not shredding for the sake of, which is what’s coming from metal, it’s Steve Van, Yngwie, Jimi and EVH all vying for position.
