Studio Diary 2022

GF:

"We are on a break from Mark’s album. I am working at home on various things and we will soon be involved in the Local Hero Rehearsals for the Chichester show"

I can't believe I believed  new album would be released in 2022 I am so naive

But it was already stated somewhere it's a 2023 project. I'm not waiting for the 2022 MK album.

Yes, I know. But two or three months ago, I still believed in 22.

"Maybe overly optimistic but not naïve"

I like it:)

[Darling Pretty]

Of course they take a break now in summer.
MK will go out for holidays until maybe after his birthday on August 12th.
Then the rehearsals, album continues, First LH show, album continues... Christmas

[Robson]

That's true. There is a chance that new album will be released in the same month as Golden Heart

Let's see, according to Guy, they are very busy with things he can't tell, he says that days hadn't enough hours etc so depending on what they are on...

With all this waiting Mark certainly raises the bar of anticipation. Knowing that he's a prolific songwriter who writes so much to justify double/triple albums, and after 2 years of covid and now practically World War 3 going on, and Mark rapidly aging, I only anticipate a masterpiece from him. Like Shangri-La.

Ha!  Maybe overly optimistic but not naïve.  It is becoming astonishing the time at which this is taking and considering the pace they are going that they actually need a break!  Tiring business choosing microphones and drinking tea obviously. 

And yet when Guy was asked if Mark would go on Top Gear he said he’s probably been asked but wouldn’t have time……

Hmm, i´m trying to be patient and having a cup of tea. The new album will come, definitely. 

[skydiver]

Richard Bennett said in an interview with Andy Ellis (The Guitar Show Episode 107 on Spotify) that during last February's recording session at BG around 25 songs were recorded.

[Robson]

Good news! 25! Thank you skydiver

[Neville Sherman]

And I bet you can add another 10 or so from the week in November. Sounds like a lot of songs - some of which might never hit the air waves which will be a shame!

[rmarques821]

It will be a quadruple album.

[Robson]

Privateering part two. Five songs as b-sides. Why not? A little more joy and optimism in the new year. Please

[Klaus74]

It is possible, that the record-company will release Marks new album in multiple variations again. CD-Album, Special CD-Album with Bonus-CD, 2-LP-Vinyl-Set (i hope so), as limited Deluxe BOX-Edition with Vinyls, CDs, DVDs and some nice additional stuff, like posters, lyric-sheets, pictures, or other gimmix.
