Petra should do a live concert cd

Post by MATTHEW DOUGLAS » Mon Aug 02, 2004 5:24 pm

Hi my friends of the Petra zone, it has been awhile since my last post from my computer at my work station here at Shop Nbc in Eden Prairie Mn where i have been listening to a live Stryper cd, and i thought to myself, what if Petra could do something like this for all of the fans young, and old from all over the world to help tell the world that Jesus is alive, and Petra means rock. What are your thoughts on a live cd ? Thank you for your reply on this matter, your Minnesota pethead

I would love it, but they did that for CITAS. It costs bucks to record CDs. :wink:

From a record label stand point, there are two records that never sell well, 1) Live records, 2) double records.

Only one live record broke that rule: Peter Frampton.

Brent is an audio engineer dude. He's been mixing sound for several decades, including lots of CCM shows. He can be a little blunt from time to time, but in general he knows what he's talking about.

usually a record company will do a live cd just to fullfil a contract.

Double

Post by Jonathan » Thu Aug 05, 2004 10:16 pm

The new Daniel Amos double album is incredible. But, true, it will never sell big time. It did satisfy this niche DA fan, though.

DA is a good band, it's been awhile since they've put out a CD. I saw them in concert a couple times, Terry Taylor is a riot.

The one album that broke the second rule: Mellon Collie And The Infinite Sadness by Smashing Pumpkins.

Let's not forget:

Barry Manilow Live from 1977 (Quadruple Platinum)

I am the proud owner of the 8-track version of this album, which still plays, btw!

You're brave for admitting you own an 8-track, Sue. I remember those. Do you have an 8-track player that works? :lol: I like some of Barry Manilow's stuff.

YES, it still works! .. though you gotta be careful, cuz sometimes it eats tapes. But the radio portion works fine.

It's a portable am/fm radio/8-track player that I got as a graduation present... there - now I'm not only BRAVE but STUPID for showing my age! lol!

Wow, that brings back the "You Light Up My Life" memories. I also had that on 8-track. I purchased that at TG&Y, a "dime store". Only you old farts know what a dime store is.

That is not correct. The Wall by Pink Floyd was a double record, and:
Nevertheless, the album topped the Billboard charts for 15 weeks, selling over a million copies in its first two months of sales and in 1999 was certified 23x platinum. It remains one of the best-selling albums of all time in the US, between 1979 and 1990 selling over 19 million copies worldwide.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Wall

The Wall is not a live album.
