Mark T. Williams has just released his 7th solo effort as the ablum entitled "11:11" featuring 13 songs, under the name of "Lionel's Dad" as usual. Some are very experimental and/or very rough-edged, and some are of quality. I would recommend you to listen to the second track "I Long For You", well-produced mid tempo ballad type song, reminding you of his young brother, Joseph Williams. The following "On A Holiday" would be worth listening. After the long lead-in with sax and guitar, mid-80's vein good Mark's vocal would follow. You must not ignore the track # 6. Yes, "Top Down Girl" written with and originally performed by his young brother on Joseph's album "3". Funky powerful rock tune "I Waited" would be a decent song. 
Meanwhile, I am also pleased to let you know all of Mark Towner Williams' albums are now available again through CD Baby now, some of which had been difficult to buy for a long time, including 1998's album "In A Dream" featuring Joseph on backing vocals and 1995's first solo "Lionel's Dad" including "A Thousand Years" written with Joseph and David Paich, originally performed by TOTO. Or, how about 2nd one "Driving Music" including Mark's version of "She's Gone" also originally performed by Joseph on the album "3"?
