THE LONG HIGHWAY
"The Long Highway" was Mark's fifth all-original album, released in 2004.
The album includes the radio hits "Riding High", "Summer", and Mark's TOP-4 duet with Vanya - "Rollin'".
With more a slightly more acoustic production than Mark's previous album - "Far Away" (2001) - "The Long Highway" is a brilliant songwriters exploration of the stories and emotions in taking"the journey".
This CD contains the powerful Bob Miller co-write "Wrong Place, Wrong Time", Mark's duet with legendary Australian singer songwriter Pat Drummond on his song "The Darling Downs" - and the superb title track.
"The Long Highway" is the finest example yet of Mark's poignant songwriting and emotive performance - and is his current solo album release.

"Far Away" also contains Mark's 1998 Unisong International Song Contest prizewinner - "Amanda" and "Sweet Memories" - a track featured on ABC Music's "Open Road II" album.

SUMMER DREAMS / REMEMBER
"Summer Dreams" was Mark's third album, released in 1998. With a compilation of remixed and re-recorded songs from his previous 2 albums - and a number of new songs this collection still stands as an excellent introduction to Mark's formative years as a recording artist.
Re-released in 2006 as a twin-pack (Double CD) "Summer Dreams" now comes automatically packaged to also include Alison Hams' "Remember" album in a unique "reversible cover" case.
"Remember" is - like Mark's "Summer Dreams" - a collection of Alison's early recordings, combined with 4 brand new songs to create an ideal representation of Mark and Alison's live acoustic duo style formed since Tamworth, and the Charlie Landsborough Australian National Tour in February 2006.
