Title: MK and Phil Lynott
Post by: IrisRose on April 22, 2010, 03:40:30 AM

This has been around for a very long time, and you can find the dvd if you look long and hard enough.   
The song is King's Call, and it was Lynott's tribute to Elvis. 
MK does a mean take on Elvis with leather pants and a sneer or two.

Marie,  I 've seen that video many many times !!! I LOVE it.  I missed those young and innocent years of Mark !!!

Not that I like him less, but just so nice to be able to see him so young and so handsome.  I'm drooling.....

I like Thin Lizzy a lot too.

According some pictures Allen discovered long ago, Phil Lynnot played with Dire Straits in one of that Rainbow perfomances in London, at the end of 1979, probably the same one that were recorded for the Arena Documental.
