    If you loved Jimi hendrix, you might like this
  

*by L***O on Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2013*

I was and am still a huge Hendrix fan.When I was young...back in the early 70's, when these first 3 albums were originally released...I dismissed them as nothing more than a cheap ripoff of a great legend, but I remember  thinking the mastering was exceptional.  But I listened to them several times, giving them the benefit of doubt.  I ended up selling the albums cheap.Present day...40 years later...Have relistened to this CD of the same first 3 albums.  i grabbed this in a used bin several years ago....Listened to it and then put it on the shelf.  Just pulled it out again....to give it altherlisten....My stand hasn't changed a bit.Great mastering....but it amazes me that Frank Marino has managed to stay around as long as he did ...simply by ripping off Jimi Hendrix.  He has the voice and the chops.....or at least compitent  enough  to fool the average listener....But he is definately no Jimi Hendrix.....at very best, he is a Hendrix wannabe.....Bare in mind, Jimi created that sound first.....all Frank had to do was imitate him.The bottom line is....Frank Marino thinks he is the reincarnation of Jimi Hendrix....if you really want to hear great Hendrix...Then stick to Hendrix albums.I am very sure my review will enrage the Frank Marino fanbase.  If that be the case, so be it.

    A Strange Novelty
  

*by D***E on Reviewed in the United States on November 28, 2013*

An unashamed tribute to Jimi Hendrix, each of these albums has something to offer. Masterful guitar work from Frank Marino and songwriting skills that rival his hero make these a wonderful retreat from the drivel that is called "Classic Rock" these days. While this is not for the average fan of that old school rock and roll, fans of the complete Hendrix records (meaning those that listen to more than the hits) will admire Marino's handling of the musical style Jimi created. Having three complete albums to choose from, the highlights would include "Talkin' 'Bout a Feeling", "A New Rock and Roll", "Buddy", and "Strange Universe" though there are plenty of others. If you like Hendrix, Robin Trower, and Marino's later offerings, you would probably find something in this as well. Lukewarm fans of the genre should probably just settle for the radio, you might find this too mentally taxing.

    Is it Frank or is it CD?
  

*by T***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2019*

I saw Frank Marino twice. First time at the FOX theater in ATl. (A great live recording available on CD) and I was hooked. I hate that most people always compare him to Jimi Hendrix, but I have to admit when you close your eyes and become "one with the music" I sometimes forget I'm not listening to Jimi. This was a surprisingly good recording for a multi-album offering.
