Let Everything That Hath Breath!!! (Original Version) 8)

John Slick was a phenomenal keyboard player! I really think he played a big part in shaping Petra's "sound" in the early 80's with 'More Power To Ya' and 'Not of This World'.
He was a good song writer too, 'Not By Sight' is one of my all-time favorite Petra songs... (I'm hoping they redo it on the next CP record)
I never really warmed up to "occupy" though...

it's a bummer he's basically turned his back on the Christian music ministry, he'd have been awesome to have in Classic Petra (IMHO).

The Homeless Few keyboard solo is a good one.

Occupied is one of my all time favorites, and is also has my favorite Bob Hartman solo, it's so melodic, has the right space on the right spots and builds up to a great finale, genius!

Okay, I'll bite. I don't remember the solos that well, but just listened to a few. I'd agree with Let Everything That Hath Breath. Though I'll also say I like the laid back solo on Not of This World, too!

And speaking of Occupy...when I was younger I don't know that I ever got all that excited about this song, but a few years ago I realized it really is a very cool song with some nice guitar work!
