Didja know... the song that helped Schlitt nail his audition was "Altar Ego"?
LOL, sad part was, he wasn't alone in his style choices.brent wrote:When it came out...hated it. I only like a couple of songs on it. I hated John's voice and the sound of the band. It was not until I met him later and experienced him live that I started appreciating John as a more manly rock singer...even when he was tucking his pants in his white boots and wearing tight pants with frilly Senifeld shirts.
They played "King's Ransom" as late as the final leg on the Beyond Belief Tour and "Whole World" was played as late as the Wake Up Call Tour. I also recall "You Are I Am" added into a praise medley done on the Josh McDowell Tour(Fall of 1990) with "I Love The Lord" with one other song that I do not remember.cvs2kids wrote:LOL, sad part was, he wasn't alone in his style choices.brent wrote:When it came out...hated it.

This album has a special place for me. I was a "roadie" for a local band that got to open up for Petra at an all day festival. We were lucky to have dinner at the same time as them and met them briefly. I was shy and star struck, so never got a real chance to chat them up. That was too bad because it was quiet in that area and knowing what I know now, I'm sure they would have made some time to meet a fan. Also got to meet Bryan Duncan, but barely knew who he was at the time.
An album with great lyrics, ok music but very dated production. To that effect, I'm not sure even Bob liked it that much, as I don't recall them ever playing a song from that tour again. I'll assume they did on "This means War", but that may have been it.
Whole world was my pick, but BTTS and Fools Gold are also fav's of mine. Thankful Heart could use a rework, but I replay that song occasionally as a worship piece before my own devotion time.
