MARK HEARD
"Appalachian Melody"
Solid Rock Records 1979
Appalachian Melody - cover


The only one of Mark's albums released on Larry Norman's Solid Rock Records. Produced by Larry Norman and Mark, Appalachian Melody continues in the acoustic, James Taylorish vein established on Mark's debut album, but with more confidence. A few tracks feature Jon Linn's electric blues guitar, hinting at new musical directions for Mark. With the possible exception of Fingerprint, this is the album that best captures Mark's playful, humorous side. Novelty numbers such as "On the Radio" and "Jonah's Song" provide comic relif from the deeper, introspective dimensions of "Here I Am (Once Again)" and "Sidewalk Soliloquy."
