Dr.Daniel Edward Taylor “Sprinklerhead” The Miracle Faith Telethon. (1989)

Parody of the hairmetal genre thus signalling the end of an era. Kind of a Christian “Spinal Tap”.

Phil Keaggy “Deadline” Underground (1983)

In 83’ I was listening to this, Matthew Ward, Archangel, Petra, & Amy Grant on records. Big black pancakes that spin. Everyone was pretty broke. I lived off of Ramen, hot tea, and all you could eat salad bars.

Geoff Moore And The Distance “Tough Love” Over The Edge (1986)

One of the first LPs I ever bought. I think the lady in the bookstore directed me to the album as the guy on the cover looked scrappy like me. This is when he sounded like Whiteheart. (Mostly because Billy Smiley produced the album and everyone from Whiteheart played on it.) I like to think of Over The Edge as the Whiteheart album that had Geoff Moore singing lead vocals. :-D

Producer : Billy Smiley
Guitars : Dann Huff, Gordon Kennedy
Bass : Gary Lunn
Keyboards : Thomas Dorsey, Mark Gersmehl, John Slick, Billy Smiley
Drums : Chris McHugh, James Stroud
