Rod in Toronto Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 May he rest in peace. He's the first person I interviewed who passed away. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek19 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 I'm sorry, to hear, see, and read this. What a way to pass away from. My condolences, to his family, and friends. R.I.P., Frankie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 I saw this yeah. I didn't realise Frankie played on two tracks of the Hughes/Thrall album. And I've had the album twice, maybe three times, read about it in KERRANG in 1982 when it came out, and I have the Rock Candy edition today and I still didn't know! I've seen this picture about 100 times too, I suppose I didn't realise it was him! RIP Frankie. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenn was actually the one who called Frankie to tell him that Kevin Dubrow had died. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pressure/Hopenosis Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 (edited) Sad, followed his battle with cancer. Very scary disease. Then the recent stroke. I felt terrible for him and his loved ones... Edited August 21, 2020 by Pressure/Hopenosis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick N. Backer Posted August 22, 2020 Share Posted August 22, 2020 I’ve seen him interviewed over the years, always seemed like a pretty nice guy. I saw QR open for Sabbath on the Born Again tour. They were a lot of fun. RIP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrimsonE Posted August 25, 2020 Share Posted August 25, 2020 Although he's probably better known for Quiet Riot, IMO, his best achievement was being on the best albums that W.A.S.P. ever did--Headless Children and Crimson Idol. Both were awesome albums, in no small part due to Frankie's drumming--especially Crimson Idol, where he often did a great job of channeling Keith Moon's fills. RIP Frankie.
