Review By: Geoff Howlett

After seeing, and hearing, just how much my own relations enjoyed Marilla's 1996 album and video, I was full of high expectations for her latest release. I'm pleased to say that I have not been disappointed, as here is a collection of old and new songs that have been given the full Marilla Ness treatment, resulting in a brilliant album. From the moment 'Make My Heart ...' opens, you can literally relax and enjoy the soft, gentle vocals of this talented p&w vocalist. Most of her songs have the feel of Irish folk and the beautiful acoustic guitar playing on numbers like 'Abba Father' has rarely been sung better and the country tinged 'Jesus the Healer' is just another of the list of high points on show. Delirious ? or WWMT fans probably wouldn't give this lady the time of day but, for many others, 'From Where I Stand' will be an essential purchase. (10/10).
