THERE'S A NEW RE-RELEASED
THAT CONTAIN THE TWO ALBUMS ON ONE CD
The self-titled debut by The Way was orginally released in 1973 on M!M. Their second and last titled Can It Be? was originally released in 1975 on M!M. One of the earliest pioneering Jesus Music groups to come out of Calvary Chapel in Costa Mesa, CA, The Way perfected acoustic, country-flavored rock. Their second and final recording includes the addition of phenomenal guitarist John Wickham, establishing a rockier sound that included some electric guitar with a distinctly progressive edge. At least three of these songs have an Allman Brothers/Doobie Brothers vibe! The band's life was brief, but very influential. By the mid 80s both recordings were out of print long before CDs came into their own in the CCM market, so it was never re-issued. Members of the band eentually licensed the rights from M!M to manufacture a Limited Edition re-issue of just 1000 copies. When sales stalled they they cut a deal to sell most of the rest of them to Brutal Planet Distribution, and so Rad Rockers began stocking it in March, 2008, for the very first time. Fans of classic early Jesus Music by Love Song, Phil Keaggy, Larry Norman, and Randy Stonehill will be delighted to discover that mass manufactured, licensed copies are available briefly . . . until they're gone for good. Stylistically they will appeal to fans of early Daniel Amos, America, 2nd Chapter of Acts, and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young. These two classics were re-mastered for this project. The front sleeve includes a reproduction of the debut albums' original artwork. Drummer Alex Macdougal later went on to play with Richie Furay Band and Daniel Amos. Songs include:
Son Come Out
You're Caught In the World
Song Of Joy
Come On Down
Closer To God
New Song
There's A Love
He's the Reason To Go On
Harvest Time,
Are You Listening?
A Cowboy's Dream
Days Of Noah
I've Been Sealed
Do You Feel the Change?
Living On the Bottle
Sittin' In the Pew
Bearded Young Man
