You are correct. Sue pointed that out also. Just to make sure I caught every instance I did the search and replace thing in Word and wouldn't you know it..the only two paragraphs where it was wrong were the ones I copied here! :oops:

Anyway, I'll keep everyone on the Zone updated on its progress.

I have 6 Petra albums...THIS MEANS WAR!, ON FIRE!, BEYOND BELIEF, GOD FIXATION, JEKYLL & HYDE, and FAREWELL. After I get REVIVAL, I think I will get BACK TO THE STREET.

I did not know until just a couple of years ago that BTTS was recorded before CITAS (without the vocals, naturally). I definitely see how Greg Volz could've sung on BTTS...most of the songs fit his style.

It's amazing how Petra was able to make the change in vocalists almost effortlessly. Very few bands are able to carry on successfully after something like that. I can only think of the following bands...
* AC/DC (Bon Scott to Brian Johnson)
* Van Halen (David Lee Roth to Sammy Hagar).

And to a lesser extent...
* Black Sabbath (Ozzy Osbourne to Ronnie James Dio)
* Anthrax (Joey Belladonna to John Bush).
