Thank you! I was at this show too!! Hate to say it; but Frank blew Ted away...in fact he blew everybody away!!

[Zepster77]

... and that, my friends, is.... "Electric Reflections of War"

[hdwhoa]

I was there too. Was 17. Went to half dozen Day on the Greens. I always thought the Zepplin Day on the Green sucked for sound. This one was one of the best. I became an ACDC fan after this one

[CED6669MAN]

I was at this concert!!! Loved seeing this video 32 years later! Frank always impressed me as a musician, and it was truly a special day for musicians that day in 1979.

[chuckcj6]

I always wondered what was on his pedal board!!!!!!

[MonaLisaSmileOTJ]

Honestly....Frank is the kindred spirit of Uncle Jimi......the ultimate guitar avatar

[mpression1]

i was there...see me, right there in the front. what an awsome day!!! first concert at 15.

[dLimboStick]

@mpression1 I was right up front too. I was also 15, but it was my second concert...I went to Boston/Sammy Hagar Day on the Green earlier in the summer. We took BART up from Fremont and spent the night on the sidewalk outside the gates so we could get up front. I still remember this as the best concert I've ever been to. IMHO AC/DC stole the show.

[hanksteelbranch]

Maybe the best Marino post ever. I have never seen a clear shot of his pedal board from those days.it's almost possible to make out all his effects.

[vidiot09]

only guitar player i ever saw that could chase the posers out the door with his guitar assault. fuck yea Willy .... Frank Is a bad mo fo !! thanks

[christianplysgtr]

Man that pedal board gives me a hard on. Fucking Frank tearing it up..... eddie take some notes....

[WayWoW]

Hey Willy! Thanks for posting this, another video of our beloved Frank. They keep turning up don't they - just when we think we've seen them all. :)

[whothehellisalgore]

I was sitting/standing where 1st base would normally be. I caught all of the DOG's in 79 except for "Funk Fest".

[vulture122767]

One of my all time favorites!!!!!!

[TheKmbt]

Hendrix who?

[Mover65]

I was there too... 14 too, as well... would not let my 14 year old go anywhere like this today....different time...

[harpo10]

@Mover65 How funny, I was 19 when I went to this show and was thinking the same thing about my youngest daughter that is now 17. But then again, drugs were so rampant then. We didnt think anything of it. Was just part and parcel of our youth.

[Bluesbarri]

Tooooooooooo Cooooooooooool one of the greats thanks for posting this one. Is Frank ever going to do a DVD for all his fans ?????????????

[gts101]

Whoa!!!!!!! I remember that concert in Oakland! Ted Nugent, Aerosmith etc. but...only one BLEW ME AWAY and that was Mahogany Rush!! I had never heard of Frank Marino before that concert but I became a HUGE fan and still am today! Thank you for posting this and for the great memories!!!
