Reissued 1977 album and Digitally Remastered. Frankie singer is accompanied by Jim hall, Ray Minhinnit, Chrissie Stewart and Graham Deakin. The ten original tracks include Frankie's big hit single 'Be Good To Yourself'. Millers powerful voice is steeped in soul and his at his best on 'The Doodle Bug Song', a Miller original and John Lennon's classic 'Jealous Guy.'
Full House is a tight, varied set of excellent songs by Frankie Miller, who remains a virtual unknown in the United States. I have been looking for this album in MP3 format, as I had worn out my vinyl copy decades ago. Millers' voice recalls elements of Paul Rodgers, Joe Cocker, and Bob Seger.... anyone of whom would have been proud to have recorded such a strong set of songs. The styles on this album vary from fast-paced rock, to Memphis-inspired horn jams, to soulful ballads. The tempos and instrumentation shift perfectly from track to track, resulting in a terrific, flowing blues-rock album. There isn't a dud in the set. Highlights include 'Be Good To Yourself', which sounds a bit like Free, but tighter, and with horns;'Down the Honkeytonk', which would have fit into Seger's 'Night Moves' album without a hitch, and 'Jealous Guy' which brings out the power in his song that John Lennon's original merely hinted at. Oddly enough, despite the English musicians and the Arena-Rock feel of some of the the material, the greatest artistic influence here is the late Otis Redding. Heartily recommended...M. Cudworth
Rod Stewart said of Frankie Miller, “He is the only white guy that ever brought a tear to my eye”! The widow of the late great Otis Redding reckoned: "that little ole white boy Frankie, has the the blackest voice since Otis”. Frankie is a proverbial enigma, widely regarded as one of the finest blues singers that ever lived and as a songwriter he has been covered by an impressive array of artists including, Ray Charles, Roy Orbison, Rod Stewart, Don Williams, Rush and the Everly Brothers. Frustratingly for everyone who has ever come across Frankie, he has never seemed to live up to his true potential...Dhar Jellinc
