New album in production

[Silvertown]

I asked Guy about when he will reveal the secret. I guess I know the answer already (...can't say at the moment  )

Yes, I know it too. Just don

When LOG was intended to be a double LP the available length for an album was 45 minutes not 78.

I do not wonder too much about why, when..., I just take the diary as it comes.

Could be personal reasons as well, family, children, babies... But it's just speculation in the end.

I would be very surprised to hear MK has decided to tour in support of another artist. Solo touring seems plenty heavy on the old chaps these days.

And afther that he posted pics of the airport and an airplane. Is he leaving already?

I agree! It seems that Bap's rehersal for the tour has been going on for some weeks, and since Mark and the rest of the guys are not involved in these preparations, I doubt they are going to tour with him...

I think that picture was taken during his arrival

Yes, probably

Hi Doc, Which guitar is the most popular in the studio till now, is it: 58' Les Paul, Pensa MK80, Pensa Custom, 54' Strat, 61 Strat, MK Strat, Acoustic, or any other?   

GF:

on this album, the D18 Martin


That's an acoustic

Gutted to hear that. Was really hoping to hear a new album dominated by the '58 LP.

[Love Expresso]

Is there a hint in his answer?
On THIS album, the D18 Martin???

 

Mark can do wonderful things with an acoustic, Get Lucky, Back To Tupelo, Marbletown, Old Pigweed, ... Some Les Paul overdubs might refining the new stuff at a later date!

You know what Guy is like at being a politician, he didn't say who is playing or what part the Martin is playing.  It might feature as rhythm/second guitar on a lot of songs, making it the most used.

Maybe it's time to sum up all thoughts about the question why the album will not be released unit 2012:

- he's recording a double-album (one accoustic, the other electric) ==> dream
- there will be a tour in autumn/winter (DS-charity gigs or with the NHB?) ==> great
- it's gonna be a duet album with another well known musician (Gilmour, Clapton, Harris, Cale or Dylan..) ==> o.k.
- his wife is gonna have a baby ==> wonderful

my suggestions:

- there will be an album released in 2011 with b-sides an unrealesed material from the early Straits-stuff to Get Lucky ==> dream
- mark has to go to hospital doing a surgery concerning his problems on the last tour where he had to sit during performing or his doctor said that he should wait half a year to fully recover ==> get well soon

Let's keep on speculating....

- his wife is gonna have a baby ==> wonderful

wonderful??
