So this is the famous "Take it, Mark" Mark? LOL. Great player, I downloaded the famous "Take it Mark", Little Wing cover and have to say it is one of my favourites. Damn great player!!
This guy has the uncanny act of sounding just like whoever he's imitating. Not only in his guitar tone, but his phrasing. I'd love to hear what this cat could do with a good original song.
YBR was the only reason I went to vegas. They were awesome live.
He was with Yellow Brick road out of Las Vegas, for a long time, but appears to have left around September of 2008. I'd like to know what he is up to. I was sorry to see Charge never fully develop.
I have the studio version as well, but for some reason I still love this version better.. more improvisation in the later parts of the song which I really enjoy.
Definitely looks more like a Fender or a Jackson.. I would lean towards it being a Strat only because I see very few Jackson guitars with a pick guard like that.. whereas it looks very much like the pick guard a Stratocaster would have.
Of course.. it could be a strat clone.. or one of Fender's later guitar works (which didn't go by the Fender name). Either way, it has the perfect sound for this song.
Does anyone know what kind of scale is played at 7:30?

How come Mark isn't more known as the amazing guitarist he is? he's far better than many other "guitar celebrities"

Steve Cole and Mark will take the world by storm.

Let's see a youtube solo performed by the Drummer Steve Cole, he is PHENOMENAL as well and should get the same amount of recognition.

I was married to the drummer and this was a gig I was attending on the Westbank in Louisiana.

This is definitely one of my favorite versions of the song.. right up there with Stevie Ray's.
