David Bowie, Stephen Hawking, Nelson Mandela, and myriads of other legends from all other the world... I've seen them before, and after their "is" became "was".

RIP

Maybe Mark will revisit Two Skinny Kids to honor them... Great song that deserves to meet the broader audience in a good quality recording!

I remember amazing concert Chet Atkins And Friends in 1987. Mix: All I have to do is dream, Bye bye love, Wake up little Suzie.

Really sad indeed.

But I'm afraid MK doesn't remember TSK. Hope I'm wrong.

I find it extremely amusing that Mark wrote the song about Ev's long ago and while they both were alive, and even after they are both now gone the song is still in the making. Slow learner, that's for sure!
