On March 1, 2012, the Winnipeg Free Press ran a piece by Rob Williams titled: “This Stallone Prefers to Deliver KO Punch with His Music.” The article (which is a good one) is, of course, about Frank Stallone. Here are some tidbits:
- On focusing on films over music: “I’ve got to say I’m regretful in a sense. I put my music on hold for a bit and started doing a lot of movies then people forgot I was a musician, which bothers me.”
- On his agents: “…I always had bad management and bad agents… You know how you have people who can make something little into something big? I had people who made something big into something little.”
- “All of the sudden you’re Rocky’s brother. At first it was, ‘How’s your brother?’ Now it’s every other person: ‘How’s Rocky?’ It’s not even your brother anymore, it’s Rocky… You kind of disappear, which I wasn’t used to because I was the frontman in rock bands.”
- “My brother, as famous as he is, would give up almost everything if he could sing. He’s the most frustrated singer in the world.
