thats awesome. all that history. Marco is a huge inspration. i even took a struggling bass player friend to see him recently at the Baked Potato. My friend was super inspired and kicked in to practice upon witnessing your bro playing so brilliantly the groove, melody, soul and all. Biggest respects to you and him. I play drums :) . Stay playing. please. whatever happens don't stop letting the rhythm and the energy and the light of music pass through you and into the world where its needed so very much :) !
Marco is a Brilliantly Blessed Player and sings like an Angel. A truly gifted player with the most beautiful left hand movement and classic technique. I know from personal Experience. It was Marco that made me want to start playing a fretless.
Thank you Carlos for all beautiful words and stories about your families. I met Marco a couple of times in Sardinia, Italy, after his shows in a nice, little jazz club. He has a huge heart and an incredible talent, all his concert is pure emotion.... He is my hero too!!!! I wish all the best to all of you.... Trive
Beautifully played, sung, produced, and written Marco.....Blessings.

Beautiful sound on the guitar, but the vocal kinda ruins it. (I'm not a vox man, tho')
