The album, âKeith Marks Foreign Funkâ, is a collection of popular tunes with a âfunky twistâ. Two songs, Foreign Funk and Patsy are original compositions by Keith. You will find yourself unconsciously swaying and tapping your hands and feet to the beat of his magnetic flute.

Keith once stated that âMy flute is CONNECTED to my central nervous system.â Over the years thousands of fans have joyously shared that CONNECTION.
