Francis Dunnery's new album 'Frankenstein Monster'

[xilddx]

It's dedicated to, and inspired by, his dead brother, Baz Dunnery, who played guitar in for Ozzy for a short while.

There's his video of one song on his website http://www.francisdunnery.com

I really love it, great music from a truly passionate musician.

Yep. I'm enjoying. Been following his blog recently about his bro, in fact I think it was you who put a link up for that, so thanks

Another big Frank fan here . Not just a superb guitarist but a complex and extraordinarily talented songwriter , too . Always interested to hear what the man is doing , so thanks for letting me know about this.

Took the words right out of my mouth!

Glad there's some love for ol Francis on here. Go to one of his house concerts if you can, you'll see what a fabulous and very odd man he is

I'm hoping to go to the London Tabernacle gig with his prog band on Nov 2. If anyone else is going it would be good to meet up.

Love Francis, been to several house concerts and whenever he's in town, I'm there. Will check this out, thanks.

Like a lot of his music, think the whole astrology stuff is as nutty as it is from anyone else but he seems to take it seriously. If I can get to Bilston to see him I will but there's a lot of gigs around at present of interest and I can't make them all. Tall Blond Helicopter is a great summertime feel good album.

We're about to release this as a double heavyweight album on the Plane Groovy label; the audio is stunning and it's an amazingly lively recording, with absolutely minimal compression - an audiophile dream. It's a truly worthwhile upgrade/revisiting of the old Necromandus songs which, if you've heard them, are let down by that early '70's muddy production.

Excellent! I have heard the Necro numbers and you're absolutely right about the production.

Can you post more details about your release please? i.e. where to obtain it. Cheers.

EDIT: It will be from your site won't it? I just had a look.

Another big fan! I'm off to see him tomorrow in Oswestry and then at the Robin on the 3rd Nov.

As usual with Frank, it'll either be laclustre or totally wonderful.

Massively talented.

I'm seeing him in London. Got the album the other day and it's really kinda nostalgic, it's like early YES. My favourite track is Multi Coloured Judy Green, it's wonderful! Love the lyrics.

Hope the shows you go to vibe you the f*** out man!

Should be a very interesting gig mate! Really looking forward to it!

[White Cloud]

I'm a big fan. Also considered Frank to be one of the best of a generation of British talent. Awesome guitarist too.

I saw 'It Bites' when calling all the heroes had just been released.
Great songwriter and player. and I love his voice.
will track down the new album as I need something a little different to listen to

Very nice to meet you last night, Chris. It was a top night!

I'll give you a shout about that deck.
