Can't be a bad tour with these guys.

McCusker is so good it needs two guys to keep up for him.

Vraiment hate d'etre à bercy!!! 7eme fois que je vais le voir le bougre et toujours aussi impatient!
D'accord avec NANTES pour Get Lucky, superbe! mais un retour à quelles racines? au contraire je trouve que, comme à chaque album, mark sait toujours se renouveler... il est fantastique!
Allez si le monsieur lit ces quelques lignes, des petites requetes incontournables pour bercy: song for sonny liston, junkie doll, telegraph road, speedway at nazareth, don't you get it, imelda, brothers in arms, sultans of swing, tunnel of love, sucker row, back to tupelo, cleaning my gun, remembrance day, so far from the clyde, get lucky, are we in trouble now, why aye man, boom like that, money for nothing, coyote...
OK 20 titres ca fait une ou deux de trop par rapport aux sets habituels mais quel concert de reve ca ferait!
merci pour tout mark!

Get Lucky, recorded at his award-winning British Grove Studios in west London and co-produced with longtime cohorts Chuck Ainlay and Guy Fletcher, is a beautifully crafted exploration of a lifetime of musical roots; fluently combining folk and blues with his original songwriting, the whole containing personalised British ingredients and vivid observational lyricism.

POUR LES RACINES je n'avais pas copié et ce n'est pas moi qui l'ai dit en premier !!! voir ci-dessus !
quoiqu'il en soit, il y a du nectar dans chaque titre de cet album,c'est vraiment de la "haute couture". Merci MARK.

et pour song for Sonny Liston à BERCY je vote aussi ! pour le reste aussi je lui fait confiance !!!
