Some Louie Trivia
Don't think this is common knowledge. Everyone knows that Louie was with Randy Matthews before Petra...but Louie (and the rest of Randy Matthews Band I think), highlighted as the Bible Belt Boogie Band! They even recorded an album with one of my childhood heros Charles Mcpheeters. The album is called "Faces" and Louie gets drumming credit on the inner sleeve of the album. I've got multiple copies! Here is the front and back cover...sorry couldn't find a copy of the sleeve to attach and my albums are in storage. After watching Louie on the Classic Petra show I thought this would be a fun tidbit.

Re: Some Louie Trivia
Wow, Dave! That's a great find. This will be added to my website (and eventually to my collection ). I knew Louie was involved with Randy Matthews. He is credited for playing drums on two of his albums: Randy Matthews (1980) and Plugged In (1981). I know Louie must have recorded some more albums before that, but up until know I only knew about an album called To The King! by a band called Hosanna from 1978 (http://www.petrafiles.com/petraspective ... eking.html). It's quite a rare album. I also have two Fireworks albums with Louie: Marty McCall & Fireworks - Up (1981) and Fireworks - Sightseeing At Night (1982).
Does anyone know of any other pre-Petra recording by Louie?
Some other trivia about Randy Matthews: original Petra has played some shows with Randy Matthews as his band in the mid 70s. I wish we could find recordings of those performances.

I couldn't believe my eyes when I found out that this album has even been released on CD...
