4 out of 5 stars NOT Amateur .......2004-10-24

My wife and I had the pleasure of seeing Mark as at a Town Hall event in Holliston, Ma. It was the evening of the RedSox game three drubbing. During a break in the festivities half the crowd scampered downstairs to a TV to catch a glimpse of the Sox. Some guy was strumming an acoustic guitar while Cabrera tied it up with a bases loaded double (won't mention what happened with the rest of the game). Back upstairs the last act of the night broke out into a set of 4 -5 very clever, very well written songs, including "Mall Cop" which I defy you to find a comparable song. I found Mark on the way out and bought the CD. Over the course of the next four days I played the CD on the drive to and from work and loved it - even more great songs and some very good back up musicians and singers. And we all know what the Sox did over the next few days. There could be a connection, you never know. This guy is a top-draw (top-drawer/RedSox?) songwriter. Do yourself a favor and get this one.
