We're happy to announce that the release of DANIEL AMOS' "HORRENDOUS
DISC"
album is coming out very soon with BONUS TRACKS and possibly on 2 CDs
if
everything can't be made to fit. There will be unreleased SOLID ROCK
photos
of the band in a luxurious presentation designed to satisfy everyone
who
has ever wanted the CD to be released. If you've been thinking of getting
a
bootleg version don't waste your money.
For years it was not possible to get out a quality release because of
the
condition of the tapes. You know we've had problems with a lot of the
archives because the tapes needed baking. At the time we discovered
the
problem a convection oven cost was around $10,000 and needed a large
space
for what is basically a pizza oven.
The HORRENDOUS DISC is a pleasure to hear. The original Word pressings
on
SOLID ROCK were made from third or fourth generation copies. For some
reason Word didn't wait for the master reel and made their pressings
from
an 8-Track sub-copy of a copy of a copy.
This HORRENDOUS DISC pressing is brilliant in sound. If Daniel Amos
hasn't
been appreciated as they should have been in the past twenty years,
we hope
that this will bring them the recognition and the accolades they deserve.
Terry Taylor is one of the smartest artists in the contemporary Christian
scene. He has produced many other artists, including Randy Stonehill,
and
proved that he is capable of interpreting more than alternative music.
As Lewis Carroll said: Hooray, hooray, callooh, callay.
Save your pennies for one of the cornerstone albums of the last thirty
years.
