Hi
anyone knows the album title, a name of a track, the tracklist?
I thought that maybe we can put all the album roumors and info here.
-
:) :) Great Idea emilianomk. I'm sure there will be a lot of entries in this thread by year's end. ;D
First off, we were told that the song Mark played at the Garrick Club private gig was "Get Lucky", will feature on the new CD.
A link to Guy's studio diary is here also:- http://www.guyfletcher.co.uk/diaries/20089album%20diary/2008mkrdhome.php

we know that the whole band is playing on it, there is some celtic instruments and an classical orchestra.
a lot of nice guitars (including a 12 string thingie).
a couple of songs which didn't make it on KTGC are included.
what more?
-
Personally, I can only hope that these songs were omitted from KTGC because they weren't in that psuedo-folk kind of style - and not because they weren't good enough.
KTGC was my least favourite MK/DS album.
-
same here dusty.
-
i was prolly one of the few who were happy coz only two tracks made it to the live show..

yip! me too

Sorry folks, I loved it, but I would like the new album to be a lot different! :D
-
Have to agree with Val on this one. :D
Loved KTGC.
But........i would still like to see something a bit different.
For me, the slow drip, drip, drip of info for the new album is the best bit.
The odd track name appearing, the album name, the art work. etc.......
Although, i will still try to not hear any of the tracks until it is released. Hard to do, but well worth he wait. ;)
I do enjoy reading peoples comments about the new songs though. Makes for even MORE excitement.!
This now, is the start of the slow build up, with the release in Sept (hopefully). The release of tix for the tour, then the tour next year.
Cheers BBB.

considering the songs that did not make it on an album orginally, but then did make it on a subsequent (or b side) i think we ARE in for some threats (long highway, secondary waltz...)
-
Threats or treats, Pottel? There is a huge difference! ;D

LOL!
I personally love KTGC. There will be something different to this album because I think each release always is. That is what is so great about Mark.
-
I agree with Ian...I really like KTGC. They probably wont play my favorite from the album..."Heart full of Holes" on the new tour...but I would also like to hear them play "Punish the Monkey" and "Madam Geneva" in 2010. I would love to see him bring back "Junkie Doll" for the 2010 tour as well...a great live song!!

Mine too. It has grown on me a fair bit, but compared with MK's other albums there just aren't as many songs I would call "all-time favourites".
I wonder if the ommision of most KTGC tracks on the last tour is a sign that MK is moving away from that style. Some of Guy's comments suggest we could have a very different sounding album. After all, can anyone imagine a string section fitting on any KTGC song?
As for the revisited songs, I'm not worried at all. MK is one of the few artists who still makes proper "albums" as opposed to collections of songs. There's usually a theme to some extent, and a similar musical feel throughout the record. I'm betting the "leftovers" are simply songs that wouldn't have sounded right on KTGC.
I have a lot of hope for the new record...everything I've read has me excited, far more so than with KTGC or even Shangri-La.
-
i did not mean threat but treat. so i am always happy with revisited songs.
-
MK is a great singer/songwriter/guitar-player, known in the business as a "triple-threat".
-
This waiting game is driving me insane. :(
I know there's nothing to do but wait, but i crave some more info.!!!!!!!
Anyone else going through the same.?
Any info.????
Pleeeeeaaaaaasse.! ???
-
Nigel - I've heard it's going to be good. Hope that helps.

There are not many albums that I often play all the way through without any skippers. KTGC is one of them - it is my favourite Mk solo album. I can listen to any track at any time and still get butterflies. There are no songs on there that are going to be classics I will admit that. But they all complement one another, they follow on, they almost tell a story (and knowing MK they probably do!). It is akin to a soundtrack from a musical - not one track stands head and shoulders above the rest nor do any feel like they shouldn't be there.
-
We all are so in to the song "Get Lucky" But maybe Mark just played that night the song "I Always Get Lucky With you" from George Jones were Mark played on.
Check this : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u0rk0e7jEkI
A lot of times "Get lucky" in the song!?

Hi JeroenvG
I thought the same thing when I saw that YT vid also but as Julio pointed out, Guy has said in a reply that it is a completely different NEW song. ;)
-
I hope soon we know the title at last, beacose we are at 5 month from the realese
-
Yeahhh it is hard to wait for the album, I am curious to listen which kind of music and songs there will be...........Well we all need to be patient and meanwhile enjoy all the other beautiful songs of Mark and ...........let's not forget Guy's new album also!
