Exactly, William! I was a studio musician between bands, very good at picking other ppls’ music and improving on it. I actually wrote in some neat changes for a few guys, some of them I know you’ve heard of, but they used my changes and I never got a mention! In fact! I got duped a few times. When you know the studio owners, it feels like a real smack in the face, kinda stings after awhile…
@@pugilemoltobene3708 and then you have guys like Tim Pierce, who are complete animals in the studio. He has played on everything from adel to shine down. But ask the average person if they know who he is, and they wouldn’t have a clue, but I guarantee they’ve heard him play lol
@@williamsporing1500 hey, Bill - yeah, I didn't care about the recognition. In one particular case, I was supposed to be paid directly by the band upon completion... and they used my recordings and changes at another studio for their album. I won't mention the studio producer, either, he's quite famous as well...known him for decades; he just said 'well, think of it like this - no contract with you, they know who you are, and they're thinking you can't do anything to enforce getting your money! c'mon! these guys are gypsies!' When I heard my shit on an album that ended up selling a few million copies (this was before everything was ALL digital). hopefully, you'll never know that feeling - that brush with potential life-changing wealth that YOU produced but someone else took from you.
Mark is uncorrupted and loyal to his passion and plays a free man , thats music . Forget “the best” it’s a systemic way to exclude the real everyday players , check the net the amount of fantastic players couldn’t be counted . Mark’s face says it all .lol I’ll keep plodding !🇦🇺
You know what's even crazier? I can go home and blast guitarists who are 1000 times better than him for free. I would go see them play live, but they're all dead.
I mean Not really that crazy Most musicians can't pay the bills with their music A lot of it is right place right time right right person hearing it in the right mood The cream doesn't always rise to the top my dude
@@Banzo_A needlessly sarcastic comment, the guy's doing a perfectly good job. However, if you want to go down that road, it's better than 'Dianna and St Nick', by a country mile. Or ten.
Ha ha, if I was there, he'd be round my place drinking my beer and showing me that bit,nah nah, that bit. Oh okay, let's try that again, yeah that sounds great.
Mark always plays a few miles down from me in Carmarthen town. Plays beautifully when ever he busks, heart and Soul goes into every note he plays. Incredible guitarist and lovely feller. :)
Wow! What I really like about this guy, less is more! Every notes hits the spot! He is awesome! What a pro and your sound is so gooooooooooood! Thanks for posting this!
Love to see an genius autistic brother living his best life and surviving on the fringe. Enjoy these guys talent when you see them as you don't see them often.
Great to hear those fabulous guitar tones Mark. The "jam" with the Hare Krishna group was an added bonus. Looked like the enjoyed it too. Cheers from Brisbane Australia
The “looking for something unique” sign at the back points straight at the guitarist. Probably was not realised by the camera, but still a great detail. And a touching rendition…!
WOW 😮 WOW 😮 WOW 😮 WOW 😮 Mark you are incredibly talented and brilliant and I really really enjoyed watching you play with such passion and love ❤❤❤❤ too
