wonder if the National Tricone is Mark's one or belongs to another musician ? 

[Dutchessy]

Only strats, a Tele and many accoustic guitars. No Les Paul? That‘s strange

There is a LP in the back

Too much traffic on Guy’s site. Can’t access it.

The picture in the lounge is John Bratby "Watching TV". I love it but maybe too much brown for some peoples taste. Possible new album cover?

[Robson]

 I thought about that too. Where are Three Lambrettas...

[Wizard]

Another masterpiece in my eyes. Mark is becoming quite the connoisseur!

[quizzaciously]

I thought about that too. Where are Three Lambrettas...

I just checked and it seems like the same lounge with Three Lambrettas. Either they have two identical lounges with different paintings (it's two stores anyway), or they hung different paintings in the same lounge. I wonder how much Mark paid for these...

[Robson]

Exactly. We also see this painting in the documentary Life In Songs.

I noticed that the picture had changed too.  I hope MK still has it somewhere, because it seemed so perfect being on the album cover.

I found this article regarding the sale of another John Bratby painting - "Three Lambrettas" .

Thank you for the article!

I hope he chooses something else than that grim painting. I didn't notice the painting, but that he wears three layers of clothes while the others wears shirts or t-shirts. I'm glad to see that he smiles at least :-)

Richard has one, he played it live with MK in the past, usually playing it on his lap with a bootleneck.

[Jules]

Looks like MK has a predilection for that artists.

Maybe both paintings are in the same room, one in each part, maybe he take the Lambrettas one out and have it on his house or in another part of the studio.

That would be something interesting to ask Guy, wouldn't it?

If I had a 58 Les Paul worth $250k (probably more due to the MK association), I would keep it in a case...
