Man I hated to see that.  What a great musician.  He was a gifted player & composer

This is the part of life, when the truth really hurt's a loving heart.
 
Mark will always be an absolute Legend to me...  
with absolutely -- no if's, and's, or but's about it.  
 
Secondly, because he meant so much to me as a FUNK Bassist, I will dedicate my next FUNK line of basses as a main stay, after him.
 
This is my way, of keeping his name for a new generation of FUNK players.
 
That news really hurts... wow it's painful news indeed!
 
Peace and Love,
 
Hal-

Too bad the synthe sound of the 80's did not leave room for superb artist such as Mark Adams to continue to blossom

Maybe we need a Topic dedicated to Alembic players that have passed

Spent the weekend listening to the bass lines of Slave tunes.  Mark was one gifted musician.

Well, as it happens I hadn't heard about Slave and Mark Adams before, but I decided to check them out and found a neat little boxset of the first five albums for a ridiculous price. Groovin' funk songs and bass lines. May he rest in peace and funk up the great gig in the sky!
