Frankie Miller: High Life
Label: Chrysalis
Year: 1974
Frankie Who? Frankie Fuckin’ Miller, that’s who! Frankie’s voice is an automatic weapon firing round after round of soul bullets: “Play Something Sweet (Brickyard Blues)”, “I’ll Take A Melody”, “Just A Song”, “Shoo Rah”, Rat a tat tat motherfucker! Who is the only singer from the United Kingdom that could have gone to Atlanta and made a record with Allen Toussaint? Frankie Fuckin’ Miller, that’s who! Frankie’s not the legend he deserves to be, in fact he’s hardly known at all, not that he’d care as he’s always been and will always be right where he needs to be, with a big smile on his face.

Thanks for the insistence to experience this rare gem! Toussaint elevated everything he touched.
This is fantastic. I wake up every day to a new stroll through a section of music history that I never knew existed 👏👏👏👏👏
