About me:
To most I am known as the creator of the notorious "Teenage Opera" and other music gems that are so ancient by now that the kids featured on the infamous "Grocer Jack" single are now grandmothers. So sad, too bad, because it's sorta like Edison being known to most only for having invented the light bulb. In other words, there's lots more. Lots of lots... If you're interested, or plain curious, come and visit my website at www.markwirtz.com for not just a bunch of hype and bullshit about the old stuff, but also some cool NEW stuff, like clips and picts and bytes and graphics and, well, you know -- stuff. C ya there! :)

Hey, Mark! We're sure missing you over here in Wirtzville! You should'a been on the roster here at the Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon in Vegas--it was loads of cool, and you'd have pushed the frostiness of the cool-ometer right to the limit! Next time!
Hallo Mark, gestern erhielt ich das Digi Pack mit den CDs LATIN A GO-GO und SMOOTH AND EASY. Mein Kompliment an die Herausgeber fuer die schoenen alten Fotos und die ausfuehrliche Biografie.Ich wuensche allen Deinen Fans ebenso viel Freude mit der WIRTZ AND MUSIC die uns in die Zeit der 60iger zurueckfuehrt. Hier am Rhein ist es derzeit sehr heiss und die Sonne brennt stark. Viele Gruesse und die besten Wuensche, Dein Freund PETER
On the 4th of May it’s going to be the last ever Cellar Tapes radio show for a Monday night, but don’t despair……it will be going all Prime Time on a Saturday night from the 9th of May, oh yes!
So to celebrate a fabulous year of playing the weird and wonderful from the 1960’s, this Mondays show will be a Cellar Dwellers Special, counting down the top nine most underrated bands from the 1960’s.
Seriously not to be missed!
The Cellar Dwellers Special
Monday 4th May
2pm - Los Angeles 5pm - New York 10pm - UK 11pm - Europe
