Hey Andrew! you know Mark Free (Marcie Free)

Postby Vladan » Mon Nov 28, 2011 10:02 pm

I didn't know who it was until you mentioned that they were in your top 5 singers of all time, maybe top 3?. Anyway, have you read the bio?

I was shocked to find out, that he/she lives as a woman, I thought it was a guy. It does not matter, but what a voice, one of the best singers ever.

Mark changed to Marcie in the mid-late 90s. Had 2 wives in his past, but obviously had a lot of issues to deal with and is now much happier. I talk to her from time to time....wonderful person. and drop dead brilliant vocalist.

Awesome vocalist whose better days are past.....the latest UC release was a tragedy. Look to his work with Signal, and UC self-titled to find gems....

I agree, it was a tragedy this BRILLIANT album didn't sell a million copies. Killer AOR with a modern touch.

Couldn't agree more, I have been in touch with Marcie a number of times, she is always very approachable and what a voice.

Oh that is awesome, of course you know, you're Andrew, crazy question I know. I'm reading it now, thanks for that, I am so impressed with her singing, but also the songs! just brilliant, I'd say now definetly in my top favourites 3 vocalists of all time, and currently my favourite at the moment.

King Kobra's collection of outtakes album is a favorite car trip Cd. There is some amazing songs on it. I had it on my trip to Vegas a couple of weeks ago. I actually need to get some of their regular albums like the first one with Mark too. (The New one with Shortino has been a hit from the first play with me- it's totally brilliant! )

One of the best singers out there without a doubt. Nice to have Free back on the scene.

I've heard Marcie described many ways....successful and famous are not two of them. She has a reputation in the melodic rock scene for that voice, but to be successful, you have to have an album that sells a lot. With the possible exception of King Kobra's theme song for Iron Eagle, that never happened.
