Uh, no. It always is addressed because that is all the press Frank ever got. The more the record is set straight, the better. Don't you think Frank is tired of answering it? YES, but he also knows the value of the truth. I am tired of reading about it too, but if more people get to know the truth and not some concocted bullshit, I will endure reading about it.

Just clearing it up, which is cool. Thanks for posting that Willy.

I may the black sheep of this entire message board as the few people that have replied to anything Ive written have misunderstood what Ive said or my warped sense of humor had me coming off as crass. I apoligize to lori who asked what tabs were on another board in reference to a newbie asking about where he may find some in reference to the first few recordings. And I only thought prematurely that you cant find acid like that anymore and it was clearly a joke meant to insult noone. If we can' look at those stories of Franks past in perspective and realize that this is a person and talent that has evolved from a child prodigy to a man then somebody missed it I do often. Its a great story ...true or not never mattered ....the only truth is what comes from the mans mouth unmisconstrued . The bottom line is that I know of no artist guitarist or otherwise that has put on record on stage what this man has accomlished. To explain what its meant to me would take up far too much space. Frank is a gift given to us and hopefully we all better for it. If ive challenged anything that youre doing or have ever done its clearly because you have always been my idol. The best story is yet to come I die and come back as Frank.

Hey Plastic Man....... :winky
It can be too easy to misunderstand when reading something written. The only person who truly knows the meaning and feeling behind it, is the person who wrote it. But thank you for saying something. I appreciate it. No worries.

Frank is a gift given to us and hopefully we all better for it.

There is no misunderstanding there. :smootch
Willie, thank you very much for posting the article. You rock! :headbanger

Take care.

Well,you guys now know why some of us Brits call him Deaf Barton because reading the way he was putting these questions to Frank didn't come across very well-Deaf should stick to licking Kiss's ASS because that's all he used to do when he wrote for Sounds-hey aleast Frank got some exposure-but hey we are out here-AND ALL OF US WILL ALWAYS BELIEVE IN HIM AND SUPPORT HIM-Ps and Deaf is a twat because whenever any young axeman cites Frank as a Great Guitarist Frank is ALWAYS gracious(spelling) to them,deaf go back to working for a car magazine where you don't belong either
