Quote:Mark Howard, the innovative sound engineer behind two of Bob Dylan's finest albums – Oh Mercy and Time Out of Mind – as well as landmark recordings by Willie Nelson, Lucinda Williams, Tom Waits, Neil Young, U2 and Emmylou Harris, is now fighting for his life. Just one year after Howard was diagnosed and treated for skin cancer, the disease has aggressively spread into his lungs and brain. A GoFundMe page has been created for Howard, who has been unable to work since the diagnosis. He is currently in Toronto receiving treatment for stage 4 melanoma, to arrest the growth of the cancer. "It’s been a battle – the side effects are not so nice," says Howard. "But I’m feeling good. And I've had great support from the music community."
