Mark West turned 55 right after his 11th birthday. He writes, sings, and plays a multitude of instruments and has spent much of his musical career as a supporting player. After numerous requests from fellow musicians and fans, he decided it was high time he recorded some of his own works, so he hunkered down in his studio and with the help of some outstanding musician friends, created this mostly all-original debut CD, 'A Long Road Home'. These songs are a small collection of experiences that we all encounter at some point along life's journey. All of the tracks are original except for 'Stoney' which was written by one of Mark's songwriter heros, the great Jerry Jeff Walker.
