That prove they never listen to past tour recordings. And in a way it is better like that, otherwise they would hear the gap between now and then.

I think when Mark listened to TR from Madrid 2010 and decided it was so bad it should be omitted from the super deluxe box, it made the 2013 versions much improved.  Just a theory. :think

I really doubt that Mark was involved in TR not being included because he though it was not good enough, especially after letting Simfy to sell the whole european tour.

The deluxe was a record company affair not Mark.

It doesnt matter if you agree or nor with me or with anybody. 2010 TR was not good.

We asked why Mk wanted it out too, and his answer was "He wanted it out, end of story"

Today on Guy's forum he answers on a question if "The Straits" thing somehow infected his friendship with Alan Clark... Guy is very honest to say: Sadly yes.... MK and Guy are not so happy with the Straits........... They wil not tel but i gues they are thinking like... What the F***** is this.......

Alan was the bestman in Guy's wedding, they were very close friends.

Mk employed Guy in 1983 and since then had been in almost everything MK has done.

Sometimes people insulted Alan on his forum and Guy reply was "easy, hes my friend"

So, now the long time proffesional loyalty with MK (and also their friendship) makes him choose the winner part, instead of getting both of them together with some London Pride and solve this, and be friend of both.

This is difficult to take position on a matter involving both professional and personal.

I can only say that I am sad that it turns that way with Alan and I also wonder about Chris White, that since he has been involved in that cover band seem to have disappeared from MK professional  scope.

Sounds a bit like of the Supertramp sad saga.

With the sun straining to burn through the typical October marine layer of low cloud, our Santa Monica base is as comforting as ever. We've been parked up at the Casa del Mar for almost a week now and....

Well! Glad about that!
