Comments by Chuck Girard:
"Two years after the group disbanded, we received a proposal to do a "reunion" tour. It seemed timely in many respects. I had always regretted that we had never cut a live album, as I felt the uniqueness of our live appearances warranted some kind of documentation. Superstar engineer Bill Schnee signed on to do the recording, and things just seemed to be right. The tour truly covered the nation, and we visited 33 cities. The tour itself was a logistical mess, but shows went on despite these behind the scenes problems. All in all, the result was positive, and something was captured in these performances which I feel models the essence of what ministry in music is about. This to me is as much a document of history as it is an entertaining and spiritual album."
NOTE: This was originally released as a 2-record set. In order to fit it on one CD, some of the original material had to edited out, including a great drum solo by John. It's still great to have it re-issued in digital format after all these years!
This CD was at one time sold in Columbia House's catalog!
