BEST guitar player EVER. Not just for this solo or song, he did the same with all his songs: magic. He can make you cry of happiness with the way he plays the guitar, when he plays, your feelings just explodes, it’s like being high. Sadly I think he is underrated in the music history, for me, he is the No.1

It's remarkable how often MK and DG are mentioned as fans' favourite guitarists who they'd like to collaborate. Moreso than for other contemporary guitarists. Yet I can't any mention of the other by either of them. But is that easy to imagine them on a song together? I can imagine a very DG sounding song having MK licks in it and vice versa, but not really a real collaborative effort in writing a song.

Sydney 1986 . It was the last concert after a year of touring playing something like 275 concerts . The band was at its absolute peak , the concert was televised around Australia and anyone with a VCR taped it . Mark was on fire and finding it easy with the band as tight as this . They were making each song new in some way - the solos had evolved and they seemed to be enjoying the performance especially with the thought of going home after giving us everything they had . It was fabulous :) This must be up there as the best version .
