Here are some of Mark's insights and observations on his favorite destinations on the web:

Naked Boys Singing! www.nakedboyssinging.com
This is the link for the hit off-Broadway show that I wrote songs for, "Naked Boys Singing!" It's been running in New York for over six years, and it is also playing in Houston and San Francisco. A zillion companies are planned within the year- very exciting!
Dan Siegel- www.dansiegelmusic.com
A good friend and a frequent writing partner, he wrote one of my faves "Another Night" with me. He's a wonderful keyboardist and composer in his own right.
Lorraine Feather- www.lorrainefeather.com
She's got a wonderfully creative site. She happens to be one of the most talented people in the universe-- buy her CDs. And yes she's a good friend who I've written many a tune with.
Marilyn Harris- www.marilynharris.com
Marilyn and I met in early 2003 and began writing together in July of 2003.  In the next 3 months we wrote six great songs together - 5 of which Marilyn recorded on her 2004 CD "Future Street" - check it out.  She writes music, lyrics, sings, plays piano, arranges and produces - and boy does she SWING!  We're still writing new tunes together for my upcoming CD and 4 of our new tunes are included on her 2006 CD "Round Trip".
Osamu- www.eastquest.com
Osamu and I are part of a fictional Japanese Swing band called the " Zen Zootsuit Band " that's topped the MP3 swing charts for months. He also is a wonderful guitarist, composer, producer and world synthesist, as well as a wonderful guy.
David Benoit- www.benoit.com
David and I have been friends before he recorded "Linus and Lucy". We have written a number of wonderful tunes, check out " Rainbows" on my CD "Ebony Rain" and he's an incredible keyboardist, arranger and composer. Nobody writes melodies like he does. Plus, we're writing a " Big " Broadway Musical together. More about that soon!
Jon Mayer- www.jonmayer.com
He arranged and plays piano on a lot of my "Sings Bobby Troup" CD-- and he's got some lovely CDs out on his own including "Rip Van Winkle"
Grant Geissman- www.grantgeissman.com
This Mad Magazine afficionado is one of the planets great guitarists. He can play it all! Electric, acoustic, et al. It seems that from the beginning he's played on most of my CDs and he's a chart topping artist for his own albums.
David Cat Cohen- www.catcohen.com
David is an old bud, since I did this quasi-rock Musical with him many lifetimes ago. He's a composer, keyboardist and educator with a nifty website. Check it out!
All About Jazz- www.allaboutjazz.com
This is a great resource site with everything a jazz love could want. Reviews, profiles and more!
Jazz Vocal- www.jazzvocal.com
Great for all you jazz vocalists out there.
Jazz Source- www.jazzsource.com
A great site that leans a little bit more to the "smooth side" of Jazz. But it has links, reviews, artists birthdays and more!

Too Old For The Chorus www.toooldforthechorus.com
This is the official website for the show that I wrote (along with Marie Cain and Shelly Markham), "Too Old For The Chorus" which ran in Los Angeles several years ago, and is playing in San Diego at the Theatre in Old Town - starting September 15, 2005.
