Hi Marc, We talked in the early 80 I produced The Doors long form videos in the and for many years thier archivist. I sill locy your music and Asylum Choir is a masterpiece. Rick Schmidlin, I now live in College Station and you google my name in Wikipedia.
Hey Marc, I met you at Leon Russels studio back in the late 60’s. I married Robert Washburn years later who was the Brother to Donna Washburn. Alway thought you were so very talented. Listening to yours and Leon’s album. Great memories!
I’ve been listening to Asylum Choir II for over 50 years consistently. It sounds as fresh today as it did then. Brilliant stuff. Thank you!
A new fan here! My husband and I own a record & tea shop here in NC and a used copy of your Marc Benno self-titled album came through and I put it on. Now I'm keeping it and binging your other records.I love discovering artists who I should have been knowing about all along - that's the beauty of music! Thanks Marc!Abbi
Just wanted to let you know of the passing of Rick Castillo.
First concert I attended was Marc Benno..Roxy Music and Humble Pie in Detroit..great show..Stevie Ray was in the Nightcrawlers..
Wow…just when I thought I reached the end of the universe of classic rock music, I discover “minnows” . A perfect soundtrack to my morning walk through a deep forest in a snow storm. I now have some homework. Great melodies and an amazing studio recording. Thanks Marc!
Love Marc Benni, I use to play Good Year back in the ‘70 on the radio when I was a radio DJ in Salinas, Calif. Just played that album this morning with my coffee.Glad to hear your still around. ZBe safe stay well. Darian Houde
I was living with friends in northern California about 50 miles from the Bay area. I was 21. We would listen KSAN out of San Francisco on the stereo radio. In those days some FM stations would play album cuts all the time. And so they would play 'Baby I Love You' a lot. I loved that song and bought the album which is and probably will always be my all time favorite album. I have all of Marc's albums (except the new one) . He's my favorite artist. I'll be coming to Texas some time to see him play.
Very cold evening in Germany. Searching my record collection and stick once more to one of my favourites "Lost in Austin". Still enjoying it like in 1979. What a great record. Thanks Marc
I just discovered your song "Speak Your Mind." I love it. Thank you. It rules. Hope you're well.
I've been a big fan of Marc's since wearing out my dad's Lost in Austin tape when I was about 8. I still listen to it on the regular. Snake Charmer too. Both timeless records. Last week I was watching JJ Cale's documentary on youtube, and Mr. Cale mentioned he sold you his Les Paul at some point. I thought that was very cool. I saw you at the guitar show in Dallas a few years back, playing to a very small crowd. I doubt the people that weren't watching you had any idea of the greatness they were missing out on. You're a sho nuff Texas treasure. Love you man and hope you are well.
I Discovered your music this year. Been sharing it with friends. Stay safe moving into the new year, thanks for making this year a little easier.
Thanks for the blues and rocking out. Wish you and yours wellness and hopefulness. Saw Circle channel story and you did gr8! Gonna find "Survivor" and buy it for these most trying days. Take care. Cdare
My girlfriend at the time bought Ambush when it came. She's long gone and I am sitting here listening to it now Hall Street Jive. Yea. Thanks, Marc

Dear Marc:
Hello and hope you're doing fine. Last week on a local radio station I heard your song "Speak Your Mind". Beautiful song. Love that you played on "LA Woman" as well. Have a great day!
Cheers,

My favorite all time album was Asylum Choir II. It never came off of my turntable.
