steveybadger Posted February 12, 2018 Report Share Posted February 12, 2018 A very good read is Brix Smith Start's book - he doesn't come across at all well in that,although she gives him his due as a writer. But what a back catalogue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Hunt-Hertz Posted February 13, 2018 Report Share Posted February 13, 2018 I heard "Totally Wired" in 1983, whilst at Portsmouth Polytechnic. Was mesmerised by the weird, harsh whine of MES....still one of my all time fav tunes. He was an odd bugger though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I`m not convinced that a lot of his persona wasn`t an act - a bit like Warnock if you will. I think it was Brix who said in an interview that Mark liked to cause chaos just to see how everyone else around him reacted to it. That wouldn`t surprise me in the slightest. I can just see him sitting back with a pint watching everyone run around like headless chickens trying to deal with what he`d created and laughing.
