About This Track

“Frankenstein” is a rock instrumental by The Edgar Winter Group from their album They Only Come Out At Night. In live performances of the song, Edgar Winter further pioneered the advancement of the synthesizer as a lead instrument by becoming the first person ever to strap a keyboard instrument around his neck, giving him the on-stage mobility and audience interaction of guitar players. The song topped the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart for a week starting in May 1973, and sold over one million copies. It was knocked out of the #1 spot by Paul McCartney’s “My Love.” Frankenstein reached #18 in the UK the following month

    Like the Monster,many musical separate pieces went into this monstrous creation...it`s so surreal and aptly named how Edgar and Co. come up with this...definitely a hard tune to cover!

    If you think this sounds superb, just wait 'til you watch it. Edgar switches instruments at least four times.
