Mark is featured on the front cover of the December 2022 issue of Guitar Techniques.

But why did they choose a photo from 1982-83?

I bet it's more from 80-81

Thanks for the great photo, Robson!  :thumbsup
Looks like the pic was taken at Bill Wayman's 80th Birthday party?

Wouldn't surprise me if it's an old article that is being reused. Mark's technique has been covered in great detail over the years.
