JOHN SCHLITT - SOLO CD 'THE GRAFTING' PREVIEW - ONLINE NOW!

[Dan]

Sue how long before the album comes out is there any time frame?

[sue d.]

Don't know exactly... the pieces are still being put into place.

Right now the biggest need is financial support. John's leaning towards doing this independently... distribution is not a problem, but the finances needed to put the CD out there properly the rest of the way is a factor.

THAT, more than anything, is where prayer is needed.

But we really wanted you all to hear it, rather than wait until the album was totally done.

So enjoy (even though it's just a tiny bit of what you'll hear when the full thing is done)!

[WR1U]

I can't find the link to listen to it.

[WR1U]

nevermind I found it.

[WR1U]

I can't wait for the album it sounds like it will be really good. I like what john had to say about the songs.

[HudsonPethead]

Sue, what's the name of the last song of the promo?
That song is just incredible!

I could feel the presence of God when I was listening to it.
I'm sure that God will do great things through this album.

I'm praying for the best way of distribution and I believe that God is in control.

God bless everbody!

That last song is called "ONLY MEN."

It IS an amazing song.... lyrically, it's a worship song because it's being sung to God. But it's not a 'worship song,' musically.

Sometimes music, lyrics, and vocals come together in an incredible way - and this song combines all three is a powerful way.

I could feel the presence of God when I was listening to it.

Yes! I feel the same way.

When you hear the full song, it builds to a crescendo towards the latter half, and then falls back softly to the clip you hear a the end of the sample... simply beautiful.

[trodLAN]

I was also "moved" by the last song. It's not often you just love a song the first time you hear it, but this song was so incredible good! I have played it many times, - even though it just last for some seconds. This sampler is just too short, - and I realise it will be hard to wait for the album release....
The sample really teases me....

[Shell]

That sounds GOOD. I'm really looking forward to this.

[HudsonPethead]

Thanks Sue,

And I agree with you, "Only Men" it's an amazing song!!!
I can't wait to hear the full song.

Yes! I feel the same way.

It's great to know that God is moving through these songs, and it's just the beginning, cause the best is yet to come with the full album.

God bless you and thanks!

i love the new samples! Cant wait.. I really liked his first solo cd. not much into Unfit for Swine. But this cd sounds awesome!

BTW,, Hudson Pethead.. love your banner with all the christian metal singers on it!

[Pethead1]

How soon can we here all of "Only Men"? That is powerful. I loved all of then but there is something about that one that gets ya.

[BriGuyPEI]

I heard a clip from Lord Have Mercy in there. We sing that song at church sometimes. Are there other cover songs on the album, or are they almost all original?

[BForm]

O.K. I count 8 clips that are definitely different songs with the possibility of an introduction from a ninth, and maybe another way in the background while John is talking in the beginning. Sue, how many songs are there? Did the Montage include them all?

[BForm]

I am really getting excited about this project. I think this is absolutely the right move for John and could open a lot of doors. Not only will this sound have a much broader prospective fan base, but it will work much better as a lower budget digi trax performance. Let's face it. Rock with digi trax just isn't the greatest.

Does anyone remember the Kenny Rogers story a few years back? He could not find a record label to rejuvinate his career so he did an Indie record. One of the songs was played on Touched by An Angel and radio stations everywhere were getting bombarded with requests. John needs to get the adoption song used as a theme song somewhere for greater exposure.

Whoever was involved in making this Montage, it was nicely done and very effective. Can't wait.
