Thanks for the links. great listening.

That was fantastic, thanks for that, it was very interesting hearing Mark talk about his love for Chet, and some great playing of various things, it did back up what I have thought for a while, that since Chet's passing Mark has gone away from the guitar playing towards more the songwriting, I think Chet pushed Mark as a player, but now he doesn't seem to have that person pushing him, so he is more of a songwriter, which is a shame as clearly he can still play guitar with the best of them. And it was telling that Chet said Mark doesn't think he's that good a musician!!

valid point qjamesfloyd!!
-
very interesting!
I like the bit at the begining when Mark explains finger picking (thumb on the low strings and fingers on the high ones). Sounds easy enough, I am going to try tonight! ;D
I can imagine what it was like for him to have Chet ringing him. Would be a bit like if Mark rang me to ask him to sing backing vocals on his next album (I am really good at hoowap doowap ;D )

Listening to this I'm fairly sure it's from a BBC documentary on Chet broadcast in 95 or 96.
I have the whole thing recorded somewhere in fact I was just thinking the other day that I need to get it transferred and uploaded to the tracker soon. :)

Just had a root around and found it on tape in my archives, along with other interesting stuff, including a programme called "Roots" in which MK talked about his favourite music, from being a baby onwards, a lot of which matched my musical favourites from 50's and 60's too.

Isn't Mark the guy who introduces his band as master musicians, who can do everything, except for him ? ;D

Yeah, I've got Roots too, another one one my "to do" list.

Bristol was around the same era but not the same thing.
I think Chet was in the UK quite a bit around this time. There was a great joint interview in "The Guitar Magazine" (same mag that had the Ron Eve stuff) between the two of them. I used to have it but seem to have lost it. :( It had a pull out poster of the two iof them that was on my bedroom wall for many years, with Chet sitting smiling and MK pointing at him.

I have that edition. MK has a rather strange hairstyle - sort of curly at the sides! ;D

Ooh, can we get a scan? Would love to read it again after all these years. :)

I'll do my best (or Mr Superval will)! ;D There are quite a few pages. I just looked at the centrefold again and, really, MK's hairstyle is weird, quite unlike him! :o

Here it is!
