"I looked in closets for the skeleton bones - I found an empty safe for measures of Gold" Now that is a great lyric. In a similar vein to "Look over your shoulder and tell me what's coming - tell me what is the bogey that your so afraid of - IF YOU MUST BE AFRAID - BE AFRAID OF YOUR SELF for feeling afraid of the fears you have felt - you will weather well - in a climate of love". What a great lyricist - a great songsmith - what a humble spirit - Behold the man Jesus - consider his servant Mark!
is there any way to get a copy of Tribal Opera? I used to have the cassette but have no idea where it is today. I loved it! mandy.schwarm@williams.com.
Mark Heard and Dan Fogelberg are my two favorite singer songwriters and sadly,both have left this world.Thank heavens for recordings and great websites like You Tube that keep the music alive always!!Thanks for sharing this classic!!
Thanks for the video! I think that, because IDEoLA is so difficult to find, it tends to get lost within his collection of work. But I think it's a worthy precursor to THE TRILOGY. Mark Heard definately was and is one of the greatest songwriters of all time. His lyrics have influenced me a lot. I think that the only two artists who have ever had the same talent with blending faith and art in their music is Bill Mallonee (Heard produced one of VoL's albums) and Over the Rhine.
