      They were and they both brought a different sound that just melded together. But there is so much Mark in the actual music. I absolutely love the slide guitar (sorry I'm English! I think that is what it's called) and would love to know where this is played in the States. Maybe a holiday to enjoy music, beer and friendship?

    There are a few excellent guitarists in country and rock music venues, but none greater than Chet and Mark. When these two get together for a jam or recording session, they caress the strings of their instruments, and we are treated to an audio spectacle of two guitars making love to one another. Mark and Chet are there only to temper the passion...
    And the video of the simple country love story melds perfectly with the song... One of the best combinations I've ever seen...

    One day, baby, you will see
    You're gonna give all your love to me
    I'm the one, babe, that you're gonna choose
    But in the meantime, I got these poor boy blues
    Pick it son, pick it nice
    Things won't always be the same
    Someday soon, everything will change
    You'll tell your mama her baby's got good news
    But until then, well, I got these poor boy blues

It doesn't get any better than this. Except for that one other time that Chet and Mark played a song together...
