Oh oui j’apprécie énormément tes vidéos,trop génial vraiment,le seul regret c’est que je ne parle pas ta langue, alors j’aimerais comprendre tes commentaires et tellement connaître ton histoire de musicien de rue,tes différentes interprétations sont en fait des compositions originales 🤗
Dear Mr Mark Allen ! I found you here on the video channel a few weeks ago. Since then, I have been watching and listening to you every day. Sometimes crying, sometimes happily listening to your guitar music. You save me from the worries of everyday life . Your music is soul healing for me.
Mark. That was fantastic. You are such a nice guy. I'm always amazed at your creative skill. Thank you for sharing with us and keep them coming Mark. Great title. We never saw it coming.
Yes world has changed , people have changed ,allover apart even in familie ,its sad 🖤 and seems to get worse instead,,better , therefore is your wonderful music importand and we have to say thank you a lot 🌹❤
Just listened to your composition Mark l just loved it your such a talented Guy there are so many named Bands out there that would have loved to create such great song, kind regards Pete 🤠
Hi Mark, this is a brilliant there are many top guitarists who would love to have written this, take care and be safe, see you soon in Swansea, Geoff, ps very similar sounds to a Swedish band called =AIRBAG=
... ... What to say? ... Very good ... More than a guitar, more than an interpretation, more than a man... there is something more that we cannot define but only understand... or rather, hear. Clap clap clap clap clap ...
@@markallen7804 bonjour, merci merci pour tout ces moments de guitare,beaucoup d’émotions et de talents 😱je te souhaite le meilleur pour 2024 et les années à venir ❤️
@@markallen7804Hi Mark, I'm starting up a second TH-cam channel "Floyd of Fancy" with the intention of my live busks, reviews and music videos. I would very much like to start a podcast, speaking with other fellow musicians/buskers. Would you do me the honours of chatting to me about your experience as a busker? I love your guitar playing, I especially like your song Sunday Snow 🙂
Brilliant!! ...Its got a post appocolyptic vibe to it. Sort of 'Mad Max'. You're definately not the only musician in songwriting overload right now. We write what we feel in times like this. I've written a chord sequence myself, although it isn't a song yet. Just a 'meditation on a mood'. You're a great musician and I hope your music gets loved in years to come. Thankyou for sharing your passions with us.x
Hi, thanks for your comment. I've tried to get a Facebook page going but gave up trying as Facebook wouldn't let me create a link to it. Page just kept going blue, no info to let me know what was happening. After an hour of this I felt like setting fire to my laptop and gave up ! I'll try again if I can get some help with it.
Hi Mark. I love the sound of your Strat. Sorry to say, mine doesn;t sound like yours!! (but that's proberbly me!! I've had 2 strokes which has resulted in my left hand pretty useless, but what I'm curios about is, what have you got connected in the back of your guitar, with a 9 volt battery? Stuart Patterson
@@__Anton__ Yes, it's the Fender mid range boost with TBX . Haven't seen my Strat for over 3 months now, but it should be ready to play again soon . I do like my Levinson though !
@@LysanderLH Hi, no problem. I modified preset 38, Dark Lead . I tried quite a few software amp sims out but S Gear sounded the best to my ears. It's not too expensive and you can trial for free. I use an Audient ID 22 interface .

Would make a great Opening sound track for a Sci Fi Movie.

Awesome...❤️🤘
Once again... awesome.
I was improving on top of it and I messed more than just the end. Nice
The one percent did!!
I hear a LOT of George Lynch inspired ideas in that... do you ever listen to him? Awesome work Mark :-)
I am going to bellydance to it!
Tune
Wow. Only ever seen you busking before, that takes it up a notch again, are you on Facebook or anything to keep up to date with what you are up to?

Have you considered putting these on the streaming services?

Stuart Patterson
I believe Mark's Strat is a Clapton signature model with active TBX circuitry, hence the 9volt battery in the back.
@@__Anton__ Yes, it's the Fender mid range boost with TBX .
Haven't seen my Strat for over 3 months now, but it should be ready to play again soon .
I do like my Levinson though !
Mark, how can we get you some monetization from TH-cam. What are your other original content uploads we can watch?
How do you get that intro guitar tone? The big distortion. I could do so much with it if I knew how to make it.
I'm using Scuffham amps S Gear software to get the sound. The Wah is from my Morley power wah/volume pedal.
@@markallen5483 Thank you.
@@LysanderLH Hi, no problem.
I modified preset 38, Dark Lead .
I tried quite a few software amp sims out but S Gear sounded the best to my ears.
It's not too expensive and you can trial for free.

@@markallen5483 this kind of information is like gold dust. I know what I like to hear but often don’t know how to recreate it. Thanks for the advice.
If David gilmore, hendrix and Gary Moore had a love child you would be the outcome well something along them lines anyway lol .
