Frank Lee Sprague, born in Wichita Falls, Texas, is a US guitarist and composer. He writes both songs and concert pieces. His catalog numbers over 1000 works, including two string quartets, three symphonies, many chamber music compositions, and two operas. In 2004 he released an album of songs in the rock'n'roll style, called ''Merseybeat'', which featured guests Doug Fieger of The Knack and Big Jay McNeely. A sequel called ''Cavern'', whose title is often mistakenly considered as referring to the Liverpool club made famous in the 1960s by The Beatles and other Merseyside performers but is actually a reference to the title track, was released in 2005. In 2006 he released ''Merseybeat Mono'', which contained all the songs from his first two albums in monophonic sound, as well as ''Concerto for Violin with Orchestra'', the acoustic ''Fulton Avenue'', and the single "She's Good". Sprague's recent releases include ''Merry Merseybeat Christmas'' (December 2006) and ''Merry Christmas, Traditional Carols arranged as Traditional Rock Songs'' (November 2007), "Fulton Chateau" (November 2008), and "String Quartets No. 1 & 2" (July 2009) on Wichita Falls Records. He is also the leader of the Sprague Brothers who have released several albums on Hightone Records, El Toro, Wichita Falls Records, and other labels. In 2012, Sprague recorded a cover of the Bad Company single "Can't Get Enough" for a fund-raising CD titled ''Super Hits Of The Seventies'', produced exclusively for radio station WFMU. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Frank Lee Sprague」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
