[WrathandJustice808]

[showaddy11]

in those days in glesga. frankie could show that we could do, and indeed he proved as good and better than the american imports that we idolised. so much came out of the burns howf. thanks fur that.

[kiwimale1]

rough and raw velvet oyster's getting washed down with strawberries and champagne ....

[danajayers]

this is a very soulful voice, very nice

[delora33]

Where has this voice been all my life. He is wonderful, thank you for sharing him with us.

[suzannelaubenthal]

Damn! I love when I discover someone like this.....Why didn't he replace James Dewar in the Robin Trower trio, when James had to drop out......IMHO, a much better singer than Davey Pattinson.

[OALVZ0128]

just "discovered " Mr. Miller FANTASTIC!!!!!!

[rubberneckk]

never heard of this guy..what a voice!!

[bobblueeyes]

@rubberneckk please check out his albums, i can say you will not be dissapointed. true scottish blood singing soul :)

[MrBluey1]

What a voice.........

[pinchold]

How come you're white Frankie?

[azor1000]

Vocals, vocals, vocals....wow



[Dory13702]

I have followed Frankie from the middle 70s as I used to work with his now ex brother in law, and he was brilliant live, the concert in Glasgow city halls in 1978 was great with his best pal the big yin (Billy Connolly) in attendance. He fell ill in 1994 and was in a coma but he managed to battle back but can no longer perform his skills. He was always at war with his record company over musical differences and this contributed to less exposure, He was better thought of in America than uk

[bluesbhoystu]

The film was done by a great film maker /writter by the name of Peter Mcdougall .Also done a sense of freedom {jimmy boyle story}down amougst the big boys {billy conolley } just another Saturday and The elephants grave yard .

[rockridgehardcore]

From me to you James.......

[chiefskis]

For a very funky Frankie Miller number, search for "Frankie Miller Supersnatch" - It's new to me and very good.

[cycloneaxe]

love frankies hard man image in just a boys game,its a masterclass in acting,but when u listen to him singing,no one can dought that he made the right carear choice with the singing thing,never heard such a voice! rod stewart was totalty justified in what he said about frankie.check it out.

[jongkind1]

@cycloneaxe frankie wasnt acting  that was frankie playing another guy i know and he will admit it hoho

[terre08]

@cycloneaxe  I agree, best British singer ever.

[duomarely]

Like this song so much :)

[yourlastkiss89]

[ronkelly52]

Filmed at Germany's Rockpalast, June 1976. Try and identify anyone these days who can sing like this wee man...

[Fedup997]

Isn't this guy sooooo good? There's a fantastic talent called Lee Hedley from northern ireland. It must be the Celtic thing goin on eh? lol

They got video snapped on a phone doing Aint got no money and it's soo like Frankie, but with superb harmonica goin on. Pity there wasnt more of Lee Hedley Band on here, but hopefully somebody oot there will capture this guy Lee Hedley again soon. There's a brave bit about them on Google, so i am sure it winnae be long. But Frankie??? Legendary.

[showaddy11]

naebody can compare to the wee man scept his teachers, and we know who they are joy.

[MsGuitargoddess]

God his Voice is FN Unbelivable...

[unionJackman1984]

i saw a guy in kirkclady who was in his 20s who sounded just like frankie when he sang i cany mind of his name or the band but the guy just blew me clean away when he sang didnt look like much off stage but christ could he sing,,,, just like frankie just a face in the crowed but put him on stage and get blown away ill try find out the name of the band and put a vid up cos they were unreal like rod stewart and the faces in the early days

[frontman62]

Wow another great Scottish vocalist. Funny how I guy with pipes like Frankie Miller are relatively unknown..

Check out Davey Pattison, Maggie Bell or James Dewar other great Scottish singers

[LaFarfalla246]

If you need me, why don't you call me? If you need me, call me Don't wait too long if things go wrong I'll be there, right there where I belong If you want me, why don't you send for me? If you want me baby, send for me Don't wait too long, pick up your phone And I'll be there, right there where I belong Cos you know my nights they're so lonely And my days, they're lonely too I can't sleep at night or eat a bite I can't do nothing much at all And it's up to you, it's all up to you

`I would lie to you for ur love` or Dancin´in the rain` You just got to love Frankie Miller, one of the greatest, he wrote songs for Rod Steward and did gigs with Van Morrison

he is just the best.

Hi Stuart, I will also keep you in mind if i don't get anywhere with my search for frankie DVDs.

PS, I have gave up with ebay

[98mimi]

I would love to have this video-Where can I buy one-I have searched the whole web and also E-bay

and can't find one-Help -Frankie is wonderful.

[BubblesDeveer59]

If you find any footage of this man, please let me know where to get it, he's BRILLIANT.

[98mimi]

I finally found a video of Frankie Miller on e-bay-also found a Tony Joe White Austin city limits video - Tony Joe is great to.

[BubblesDeveer59]

Hi again, did Frankie Miller's video contain many songs?

I'm off to visit e-bay to see if I'm so lucky.

[98mimi]

I ordered it but it hasn't arrived yet.Hope it is clear,I think it is a video that someone took at one of his concert's -Don't care I love his music so much -I am glad to get any video-,they are impossible to find.

[BubblesDeveer59]

Hello again, I had a look on e-bay but nothing doing just now so I'll keep at it and I'm sure the video will be great.

[ianross3]

The great Frankie made a tv movie about 30 years ago called Just A Boys Game its a classic, If you cant get it let me know and i will help you.

[BubblesDeveer59]

Ta much, i'll keep you in mind.

[stuart174]

i have a couple of frankie dvds in concert one includes a documentry on his fight back to health if anyone would like a copy if they let me know there details and for the cost of getting them copied and the post i will gladly send them on as a note beware ebay there is someone selling frankie stuff there but you will be biding against his mate to take you as high as they can

[missfire31]

What happened to him?

[BubblesDeveer59]

I think he had a stroke and was in a coma for a few months. It's reported that he's making a slow recovery back to health. His web site is worth visiting.

[missfire31]

OH my.......I think I am in love..lol....what a GREAT voice!!

[stylinnprofylin]

all i can say is frankie is the best singer to come out of britain i know he never found the fame of plant or stewart but man that voice of his chills the bone man plus he is a scot like me so you are the man frankie

[stuart174]
