Frankie Miller’s May 11, 1979 show at Amsterdam’s Paradiso came off like a small room explosion, the kind of night where his gravel rich voice, and soul rock swagger locked together and turned a club gig into something bigger. The FM broadcast that survives shows him in tremendous form—tearing into When I’m Away From You, Be Good to Yourself, Ain’t Got No Money, and the Falling in Love material with that effortless mix of grit and warmth he was famous for, while the crowd fed him energy right back. Fans who still spin the tape talk about how alive it feels: Miller joking with the room, pushing his vocals into that sweet ragged edge, and leading a band that sounded tight, hungry, and completely dialed in. It’s a fantastic snapshot of late 70s Frankie—soulful, fiery, and absolutely commanding in a venue built for nights exactly like this.

Frankie Miller stands as one of the greatest vocalists in rock and soul, a singer whose raw power and emotional depth shine from his early days with Glasgow’s Stoics through a remarkable solo career that began after his move to London in 1970. Signing with Chrysalis in 1972, he delivered the pub rock gem Once in a Blue Moon, followed by a run of fiercely crafted albums including High Life with Allen Toussaint, The Rock, and Full House, which produced his first UK hit “Be Good to Yourself.” His commercial peak came with the 1978 top 10 single “Darlin’,” while Falling in Love (1979) remains a fan favorite showcase of his voice at full fire. Along the way he collaborated with Phil Lynott, wrote film music, acted in Just a Boys’ Game, and recorded standout duets with Bonnie Tyler. Later releases like Easy Money, Standing on the Edge, and Dancing in the Rain kept his blend of soul, blues, and rock vibrant, and his 1990s work — including “Caledonia” and the Ry Cooder–produced “Why Don’t You Try Me” — reaffirmed his staying power. Across albums from Once in a Blue Moon (1973) to Frankie Miller’s Double Take (2016), his catalog remains a treasure trove for anyone who loves passionate, lived in vocals — and if you need proof, Falling in Love or the live cuts on your Rumble page say it all.
