Epi 179: Part 1; When Musicians Respect Musicians. Interview with Fun Lovin Criminals Frank Benbini

INXS: Access all Areas is back with a vengeance this week with a truly original episode in two parts.  Frank Benbini of the Fun Lovin Criminals joins Bee and I to discuss the profound musical influence INXS had on him and his band mates as musicians. As a hybrid musical act out of New York City, the F.L.C adopted a blended style of music prowess combining rock, blues, hip hop, dance and soul. Uncompromising, unapologetic and unmissable “live”, Frank deep dives and revels in the skill, songcraft and talent of Andrew, Tim and Jon Farriss in particular whilst sharing a chance encounter he had with Michael in 1993 England! Frank’s versatility as a musician has led to regular gigs with UB40 as a touring musician and several respected side projects such as “Uncle Frank”. This allowed Frank to make a magical recording with Sinead O’Connor before she suddenly passed. That and a jam packed news section bringing us right up to date! So sit back, forget about the problems in your life and embrace this latest bumper double episode! Love and peace
