I was a drummer at MI in 1983. I remember his pink strat. When it came time to record a demo tape, I decided to play two Steele Dan songs. Not only did Frank play guitar but he also sang. He even dubbed the harmony vocals. I sure wish I still had that recording.
remarkably good recording for the time period. Frank is one of the most lyrical, linear, melodic, graceful, talented and passionate guitarist to ever pick up the guitar
Frank is astounding! His expressivity, harmonic sense, time, phrase. One of the very great improvisers of all time. This period in LA-based music was a rich time. Frank was at the center.
As a drummer for over 50 years this is the kind of music I always prefer playing to thank you Frank for the masterpieces you have brought to all of us through the years
Astonishing technique, he's literally mastered the guitar and seems to be able to play any note selections he wants to, at any speed. He's so musical and intelligent with it though, it's beautiful stuff.
An absolute treat I remember buying passages in 1994 and the cracking ballad was a fantastic piece of art and still is to this day the whole album is a triumph there's only one Frank gamble best wishes Frank from Shrewsbury Shropshire UK England Phil 👍🙏
Me and all my students use Chopbuilder Workout everyday since its first release, and a lot of his books about improvisation and modes. He is the master of sweep picking and speed picking, and his songs are really melodic and beautiful. Frank Gambale is one of the best rock guitarists ever. Soon after beginning with Chopbuilder, I decided to go to study to Musicians Institute and I was a proud pupil of Tom Kolb, Chas Grasamke, Dan Gilbert, Carl Schroeder and all these amazing guys. The best guitarists of all times and the best rock school ever. After more than 15 years, I am still studying what I learnt there!!! Thanks Frank Gambale and all the amazing 80's guitarist who inspire new generations!!! 😍
Ce n'est pas seulement un novateur et un virtuose, c'est aussi un très grand musicien au carrefour des genres pour produire un seul style : le sien ! Quelle prestation qui ne serait pas possible non plus sans le concours des autres musiciens qui l'accompagnent !
Frank ,Incredible performance on this entire collection ! Can you continue or return to this style of creativity? I miss it a whole lot! ! specially the jazz ! Yeah! Keep the 95' style going !!!! Best ever ! Worldwide °
I love Holdsworth, Lane, Garsed, but every time I see you play I realize that you are the greatest among the greats, any time any instrument, you are up there
First day at MI 1983. you had a pink strat, and I said you're gonna win guitar player of the year award, and you did, rest is history. Cheers Frank

I studied with Frank at GIT in the mid-80s only 3 years after he graduated. Great teacher and a phenomenal musician!! I remember this concert at MI.
Game-changing player, so talented and fearless. Thank you Frank.
Wow! I was there for this in 95! Seems like not that long ago.

Love Frank. Always looks so happy just to be playing.
When with my guitar I play his backing tracks I'm also happy. His titles are festive.

Otmaro Ruiz Grande Venezolano....!!!!!!!!!!
Si, nacio en Venezuela, pero en mas americano que la estatua de la libertad, afortunadamente emigro a un mundo libre
Love Franks non-distorted playing. Heard him play on bop changes once. As good as anyone.
Like Charlie Parker !!
Love his music, great melodies...other virtuosos sometimes forget those.

What a monster performance...the encore...everything just rocked...phenomenal Frank Gambale! #MikeJohnsonJazz
Passages - one of the coolest guitar songs in my opinion.
World Class Guitar
these are all my favorite tunes, fantastic concert!
Super nice recording! Great show for the history books.

Merci beaucoup! FG
Free spirit song is so beautiful
Yeah.
Frankie goes to Hollywood!
I like George Benson for 25 years, and I just know Frank Gambale ! He plays so much like George Benson with more modern and diverse styles.
That’s a George Benson Ibanez signature model he’s playing the opening track
King GAMBALE
absolutely tremendous!
Amazing concert!
Frank ,Incredible performance on this entire collection !
Can you continue or return to this style of creativity? I miss it a whole lot! ! specially the jazz ! Yeah! Keep the 95' style going !!!! Best ever ! Worldwide °
Saw Frank with Chick and the boys in 1990 Van Duzer Theatre Humboldt St. Incredible
OUTSTANDING recording. Damn fine mix. Performances of each player are beautifully captured here. As always, Frank is in top form.
Mark Whitfield, Norman Brown, Ronnie Jordan, they often called Benson's Children. But, Frank is very suitable for it too.
Awesome.
Praise be to the maestro. 🙌
MASTER! I love Gambale! Amazing songs!

I love Holdsworth, Lane, Garsed, but every time I see you play I realize that you are the greatest among the greats, any time any instrument, you are up there
The best guitar players:
Allan Holdsworth and Frank Gambale!
❤️🌹🎵🎶

Wow, Thanks so much for sharing. Amazing musicians! I can't believe I went to MI when you were there. You even played on my demo tape.
Great Concert!!!
The Thunder from Down Under. He really is such a remarkable player, somewhere between Holdsworth and Metheny. Such beguiling technique.
Fantastic performance of Nunzio’s Near song! Amazing dear Frank! ❤️🙏🎶🎶🎶🎸🎸🎸

Timeless.
caramba verdadeiro ouro talento esforço dedicação, música verdadeira
Frankkkkk 🙇♂️
Mantap ya
Looks like he has a nice Marshall JMP-1 Tube Hybrid Preamp. Can't quite work out what power amp and FX its plugged into.
Not sure about the power amp but reckon the unit above the JMP1 is possibly a Digitech IPS-33b.
❤
Does anybody know if that's a GB-10 Frank is playing on the first song? I love that tone !!!
I'm pretty sure he plays a Benson model. His website mentions this in the write up for the Thinking Out Loud album.
@@chrissmith640 Thanks !
I’m thinking about getting me some leather pants now!
burning
he effortlessly hit some benson licks on the GB10.
