Mark and I had never met.  He’s from Albuquerque, I’m from Hamburg.  We sat on the same train on the way to some unimportant backwater, neither of us particularly excited about going there.

One senses musicality, so I struck up a conversation.  Mark always answered playfully, which I don’t think he even noticed.  His warmth was magnetic, so the journey flew by.

I asked him to sing something, which he did.  In the train station.  It gave me goosebumps!  His singing is so authentic.  And his voice has substance, so it mixes well.

He is irrepressibly optimistic and an extraordinarily good guy.  You can hear it.

Enjoy!
