Welcome to the music of Mark Wilson. I write songs, play bass, sing, and lately... play a little fingerstyle guitar. I am also in the learning process of recording some of my songs (old and new).

Hope to have some fun and create some worthwhile recordings. Best of all... "I'm gonna get by with a little help from my friends.'' So... just getting started here... more to come.

A special thanks to Mike Shelton for lending his talent to this effort. His leadwork on dobro and guitar is featured on 'Take Me Back', and 'One More Reason'.

Oh and one other thing. I don't have the time or intention to make this come out perfect. Hopefully, it's good enough to reward your time listening.

Thanks, Mark Wilson K-Vegas, NC

Story behind the song
John Boulding graciously accepted Mike's request to put some banjo with this recording. Basically, I wanted some fill to work Mike's dobro in and around. We carried the multitrack up to John's house and he put down two tracks after a listen to the demo. His two tracks remain separated left/right - I only cut a few spots that were busy. IMO, this guy is as creative and tasteful a musician as I've heard play banjo and I'm very lucky to have him on this recording. BTW - he gives banjo, dobro, guitar lessions online if interested. I'll get the link and put it here if interested. He taught Mike dobro. hmmm... not bad
Lyrics
Cold Wind © 2008 by MarkWilson Well you can sure get lost in the feeling when the fire goes down It’ll turn your head when you feel that cold wind blow I saw the fire and I felt you slip away I turned my head to watch you as you're going... away Chorus Take your time… darling don’t you hurry If you change your mind… darling don’t you worry If a cold wind, blows you back again Some old cold wind Blows you back around this time Tomorrow comes and the past just fade to grey Some change and some just run away I'm better now because of you That’s why I know just what to do… this time Chorus [break] Bridge She didn’t know that it was showing I could always tell when she’s going… away Chorus
