Description
On Stroke of Genius, Marc Black's subtle guitar, vocals and songs take you on a trip. A trip that gently separates you from everyday life and invites you to experience the exhilaration of letting go, seeing life from the "other side", and rewiring your heart and mind. There are times you will feel a deep aloneness, but you will commiserate with fellow travelors, and finally find your way back.
This recording is a journey through the mind of a man who has seen the "other side" and has come back with more gratitude and appreciation for life than he had ever dreamed possible. And Marc's arrangements and vocals make it all come to life. With so much rock...and so much tenderness.
And the music is stunning. The supporting players on this CD are deservedly among the most well respected of our time. Steve Gadd, Warren Bernhardt, Art Garfunkel, The Dixie Hummingbirds, Mike Esposito and John Sebastian. They rock with a depth and a tenderness that's hard to find in any age.
And the amazing thing is that these songs work in their original context, or on their own. The heroism. The loneliness. The love. If you have lived at all, these songs will touch you.
LOUISE COOGAN, Record Promoter and Personal Manager
"This is a beautiful record, nice work, really.
The story is so powerful,
Gorgeous sounding."
JIM BARANSKI, CEO National Stroke Association
Marc...listened to the studio mix on my 6 hour flight home.
Amazing...I am so excited about your and Dan's work, and about what we can do for all the survivors in this country not as fortunate to have 'friends' like you. It's time to give them the dignity they so
deserve..
JAY SPICCA, Chronogram
"There are fourteen tracks that feel like a two act play, with seven songs on each side of this tale of before and after. Music and lyrics are a perfect fit, and most of the tunes have simple arrangements that let the soul of the music shine through.
One song, Rewired, is a techno/Frank Zappa style translation of the experiences of someone who has just returned from space. Marc Black is a musical adventurer, stretching effortlessly between techno-funk jams and classic Americana."
JENNIFER NATHAN, WAMC
"Thanks for sending your CD - it sounds great!"
RON ARDEN
"I simply cannot remember when I enjoyed EXPERIENCING an artist and his music as much as I enjoyed you and your friends/band simply ... fuse and celebrate. Gifted artists sharing/experiencing their energies."
