From Guy Fletcher,it turns out Mark and the band have recorded 10 songs already,and Mark has played accoustic on just 2 songs,so it should be a good electric guitar rocking album,the recording sessions are due to end mid April,they have only been recording for 2 weeks so far.Also Guy said it's NOT a country album at all,so,it all sounds exciting to me.
