Some artists hope to end up where Mark starts out with his first release. A CD that can't be pigeon holed as folk, country or rock.....it's all of them neatly rolled up into a top notch package. Smart songs... starting with the first cut, Do It Everyday, and closing with Northern Star, this album is a brilliant work that demands replay. Thought provoking lyrics, sung with style and grace, accompanied by great musical talent and produced perfectly. As good as this is, Mark really has his work cut out for himself when he does a follow-up CD. Absoultely one of the year's best.

Definitely worth the listen. Mark's sound is sexy, his lyrics smart, and his overall presentation strong and sophisticated.

This CD showcases Mark's amazing range. From the first track to the last, there is something for everyone to enjoy. Definitely check out "Do it Everyday" and "One too Many Midnights."

An extremely solid debut for this up-and-coming performer!

I am already looking forward to his next CD.

I've never known a musician to be so honest. I adore this album and seeing Mark live is the best thing. My faves are "I Always Return", for the senitmental sap in me and "Midnight Train" just to hear Mark howl.

although many people have not yet heard of mark erelli, it can be shown that his fame will grow rapidly. with a gentle sound, both relaxing and energising, Mark's music always hits the spot. It is an extreme pleasure to have seen him live on a number of occasions, and to talk with him about his lyrics. Although i personally enjoy some of the songs from "Long Way From Heaven" more, this CD still shows the wear and tear from overuse.

I started listening to Mark on my sister's advice, but now all of my friends have his CD. It's great. And he is even better live!

This album has a splendid mix of everything for everyone of all ages and is just right for any mood you are in.
