Mark rivera legend I love your music

Good video. Mark was born May 24, 1953, in Brooklyn, NY. The same day, I was born in Brooklyn, NY. It was St. Peter's hospital, which I am told is not there anymore. I always wonder if Mark was born there that day with me.

Just watched the Billy Joel 100th show from the Garden. Great Performance from that Yamaha. Thanks for the new memories!

Mark can just plain blow...with surprise! a shit-ton of swing. He has three solid gigs, each with a touring band, and I'd love to see him stand in with a jazz quartet and cut heads...because, improvisationally, he can. Love him, a great, great horn for all seasons (and a good singing voice as well).

Greetings Mark, Mark, I’m not sure if you remember me we went to see the tower of power together. Allan Gackstetter….Andy Benson was my brother-in-law as I was married to Nancy McKittrick . Congratulations on your finally writing the book. I found it very interesting and informative. You are without a doubt a genius. We always had a great time together… please remember me to your beautiful wife. All the best Mark to you and your wonderful family. Regards, Allan 😊
