• Track Listing

This star singer on the UK pub-rock circuit sure loved American roots music—and the feeling was mutual, which is why Bob Seger, Lou Ann Barton, the Bellamy Brothers and many others covered Miller’s songs. This new 7-CD set of Frankie’s solo LPs on Chrysalis finds the blue-eyed soul belter backed by Brinsley Schwarz (on his 1973 debut LP "Once in a Blue Moon") and produced by Allen Toussaint (1974’s "High Life") and producers who’d helmed recordings by John Lennon, Queen, Roxy Music and Neil Young. You get the LPs above plus "The Rock," "Full House," "Double Trouble," "Falling in Love" and "Easy Money" as well as 15 bonus tracks. Among the bonus material: the previously unreleased original mix of "High Life" (a fan holy grail) plus singles and B-sides. An eight-page booklet rounds out this comprehensive chronicle of the Chrysalis prime of this revered Scottish singer! Chrysalis.
