It seems that Mark is hosting a weekly show playing his favourite music!

Mark is a slow learner indeed. Has a studio for 15 years, decided to do something with it apart from recording music only now :lol

Maybe we'll hear a live album from British Grove Studios in the next 10 years :lol Seriously though, great idea and I'm really looking forward.

He's got nothing to do.

I've always wondered what the hell Mark does when he is not on tour or working on new music. When his daughter was younger I guess he could always drive her to school and stuff like that. Now at 70, I reckon he just sits around the house playing with his dog and cooking with Kitty. Not bad! ;D

That’s awesome! Unexpected, but awesome! Glad we hear something from him.

As he will play stuff from his personal collection there has to be some very good interpretations.

Mark the presenter?  This just isn't him at all.  I know he's a walking encyclopaedia of music but surely they cannot let him be presenter!  Should be a laugh a minute.  ::)

I might be wrong but I don’t think Mark will actually play or sing anything, guys. Sounds more like a DJ kind of gig with comments in between tunes.

And it's supposed to be a recurring weekly one-hour show? Sounds strange.


Hey, Mark, how about a bi-monthly newsletter / blog post for your fans?

Sounds like no Dylan's theme time radio hour, which was bizarrely funny and majorly interesting, amazing music that I got to know from there. Pretty, sure mark was a fan of that too

It sounds interesting.   I remember a programme that he did on BBC Radio 2 in the 90s called "Roots" where he played music which had appealed to him through his life.    :)

Stoked for this! It seems I can’t access the show, is someone planning on listening & recording this?
