"Pedal steel" is another classic from Jackal. Made my day  ;D

The blog post is a nice find, thanks ustas. According to it, Mark has written a song about one of his guitars for the new album. Anybody recognizes the fragment of an axe shown in the blog post? Could it be '58 Les Paul?
...Well, he's a big star now but I've been a fan of his for years. The way he sings and plays guitar still bring me to tears...

Kooba, Paul Harmer wrote "latest album", so it probably means Get Lucky and the song being Monteleone.

I read it again and you're right. My imagination is working overtime when I think about new MK music ;).

Yes, I assume that this post includes 2 photos of Mark's Manteleone

Top pic is indeed Monteleone (characteristic "M" tuners) but I wasn't sure about the other one. Very likely it is the same guitar though.

It might not be his car, but I thought it was funny that MK has a Texas flag on the back. :)

I noticed that too. Can't be his car. Not much Texas about Mark. It also looks like a Chrysler Jeep. Don't think he drives American cars :)

But a BMW motorcycle? Had expeceted something a bit more vintage, or at least soulful, from Mark.

I understood that the interviewer showed his motorbike to MK... Am I wrong?

Paul Harmer went with Robert Coucher from "Octane" to Mark's house and Paul Harmer took his guitar with him, so I don't think they would have gone on the motorbike.   Maybe they went in the car and the motorbike is Mark's.
