UNFIT FOR SWINE!!! Just about all of it. Right now I really like Take You On - I LOVE the lyrics:

Don't play with me, I'm not alone
Give it up, you've lost control
What you had you couldn't hold
And I'm getting stronger
I don't have to stand in fear
I know my strength is always near
His voice is what I choose to hear
I'm not yours any longer


SO cool, especially with The Man's voice. And it sounds like it came from his testimony.

I'm all for Unfit For Swine. I like the style of music very much. Outstanding songs to me are Save Me, Can't Get Away, I Killed A Man and Helping Hand.

The _Shake_ album is one of my faves. I saw John do a solo show for the teens at the Fort Worth Southwest Believers' Convention in 1995. Great show, even though it was just him and tracks...the sound system (and his voice) were incredible.

I asked the KCM video guys for a tape of the show, and they said they couldn't release it without permission. So I wrote to John, c/o Petra. He replied in the affirmative that they could release a copy to me. I thought it was so cool that he wrote me back. Unfortunately, I never did get a copy of the show. :(

"Wake the Dead" is one I crank up on a fairly regular basis.
