The Petra Zone

What am I listening to? 1. A bunch of praise songs for possible inclusion in our church service 2. A mixed CD in my car with Newsboys, Kutless, Switchfoot, Superchick, Jars of Clay, and a couple other artists - but no Petra (wife doesn't like them). 3. Shine.fm (89.7 for those in the Chicago/South S...

I grew up listening to the likes of Steve Green and Larnelle Harris as a grade-schooler - courtesy of my parents (father a pastor). By the time I finally got old enough to decide what I wanted to listen to - there was, well, Petra, Whiteheart, Guardian, and Whitecross. Audio Adrenaline was up and co...

If you look at the credits for one of the first two Petra albums (can't remember if it's the self-titled or "Come and Join Us"), there is a "Steve Camp" listed as an "additional musician." I don't know if it's the same person, but if he wrote a song in collaboration with Rob Frazier, John Schlitt, a...

hmmm...GOOOOD list...as much as I love rooting for the underdog and not voting for the most popular choice, it just doesn't work this time. Beyond Belief is my favorite song on this list.
However, it appears I am too late to vote...oh, well...I have bigger fish to fry...

Got mine today as well. Seeing as how I've never seen CITaS before, I thought it looked pretty good overall for a VHS to DVD transfer. There were a couple songs and basically all dialogue missing, but then again - the VHS may not have been an exact video copy of the the show the way the CD was...I d...

Just ordered CITAS on DVD as well...but I've never seen the CITAS video, so this should be a treat...something is better than nothing. Based on previous posts, it appears that the remaining video releases from Petra most likely will not make it to DVD. That being said, can anyone tell me how to tran...

Brent, 1. I know how to read and write music. However, when you don't have a BAND to play along with, it gets kind of dreary playing your own stuff to synthesized computer music. 2. Tabs may be for lazy people, and I myself prefer regular music, but tabs are readily available for most groups and eas...

Not much I can say about this one...except that I wrote off Petra as dead after I heard it.
Judas' Kiss was my favorite in a bunch of forgettable versions...and Dance was also done fairly well...the rest of them I'd just as soon forget.

Is there any way to obtain the bass tabs (JUST the bass tabs) for the following list of Petra songs? I would be using these for my own personal use ONLY to improve my sound when I practice my bass. Beyond Belief I Am On The Rock Jekyll & Hyde Think Twice Mine Field Judas' Kiss It Is Finished Sight U...

Have to vote for "Think Twice." That song is very powerful for me and was the song that brought me back to Christ after a few years in the dark. By the way, I now have a baby girl, Julia Hayli (last name withheld), born on 4/9/2006 at 4:49 PM (9 days late) in Urbana, IL (Champaign actually doesn't h...

Gotta go with Beyond Belief. Once again, I bring up the matter of "whole album" as a voting option - because for this one, if I could vote that way, I would. But I can't - so I vote for Beyond Belief - it was the first Petra ROCK (read: not ballad) song I ever heard (via music video at my youth grou...

Only one choice here - "I Love the Lord". A few other songs deserve a (very distant) second place vote.

My comment was also meant as a joke...I didn't take offense at all to your comment. I will admit, however, (at risk of going off topic) that a certain company called LucasArts needs to put out an epileptic-safe version of Star Wars for the theaters - Revenge of the Sith DID cause me to have a seizur...

Well...let's see...this is the first Petra album that I enjoy all the tracks off of - I didn't get this CD until 1997, however... That being said, there are eight (EIGHT) songs on here that I could easily vote for at any given time...and the other two are a VERY close second. I voted for "Counsel of...

Berean Bookstore in Champaign, IL had 10 to start with according to a friend who works there and goes to my church...but when I got there after work to get the DVD, they only had 2 left... MY DVD also crashes out after the features...I just press play and menu on my remote and it takes me back to th...
