Good sound but then there some skagged out Morrisey yank sounding mumbling wannabe that's groaning some crap over the beat. Nah I mean is he having a really bad **** when he's singing this or wha? Painful
Mine too, spoke to him a few times after his concerts,very humble man. Dis some great collaborations too
Dear Anton and everyone who has written to me about Mark, I encountered Mark many times over the years — we engaged in some extremely dubious escapades back in the ’90s; he sang ‘White Light/White Heat’ and ‘Fire and Brimstone’ with Warren and me on the Lawless soundtrack; he recorded my favourite ever Nick Cave cover — an astonishing version of ‘Brompton Oratory’; we did something together for the Jeffrey Lee Pierce record, I think; and he toured and hung out with us on The Bad Seeds' 2013 Australian tour. Go online and watch Mark sing Blixa’s ‘father’ part with me in ‘The Weeping Song’ on that tour. As a frontman, I move around a lot on stage, I can’t help it, it is a habitual nervous thing, a kind of neurotic compensation for a voice I have never felt that comfortable with. But watch Mark, watch how he walks onto the stage, plants himself at the mic stand, one tattooed fist halfway down the stand, the other resting on top of the mic, immobile, massive, male. When the time comes to sing, he simply opens his mouth and releases a blues, a blues lived deeply and utterly earned, and that voice tears right through you, his sheer force on stage absolutely humbling. A greatness, Mark, a greatness — a true singer, a superb writer and beautiful soul, loved by all.
Driving down to the Lakes from Jockland earlier, the wife read that out to me, from one great to another. THe tributes pouring in are awesome, one's from folk you'd never think he'd have associated with, Moby for one.
First head this when I was off my tits on acid. Followed up by some Mr Bungle. That was one strange evening lol
