Re: Is Louie restrained?

There are actually two versions of the Classic Petra "live" album. As I understand it, the first album was basically a karaoke session featuring live vocals sung to a track. After some criticism that the album sounded "canned", a second live album was released featuring more live instrumentation, a...

Re: Is Louie restrained? JS Read This?

However, I recall that the backwards voice joke was my idea; maybe I recall wrong: JDB: "Mine. John Slick did the voice. I wrote the line. "What are you lookin' for the devil for when you ought to be lookin' for the LORD." Hmm. I guess I always assumed that was Bob's voice. I'll never forget when m...

Re: A Conversation with John Slick

So today I was listening to Not of This World , and I wanted to ask you about the interesting bass solo/instrumental break on "Blinded Eyes." That's something very unique and not heard on any other Petra album before or after. In fact, on Captured in Time & Space in 1986, everyone is given a solo ex...

A Conversation with John Slick

I'd like to start a fresh thread where we can ask John Slick questions. John, I have many questions that I hope you'll entertain. Before I ask away, I'd like to thank you for the time you invested in Petra. The three albums you contributed to shaped my defining years as a teenager and remain in regu...

Re: Is this for real?

Psh. I will say die. Louie? Not gonna happen. Louie is driving a bus. He will not give up the good, consistent money to go play a few dates here and there. Besides, my gut says he wouldn't be invited. Please, don't make this a God thing. God does not run the entertainment industry, the Christian mu...

I just watched that video again, and John clearly said he was working "on a new John Schlitt solo record." So we've got not 1 but 2 new projects with John singing lead?! Nice!

Re: Is this for real?

Very interesting. Is this the new album John was referring to in his last video message around Christmas 2015?

Re: Petra on the radio?

What about John's Christmas album? We've got 3 different radio stations here in Nashville that play Christmas music this time of year; however, all I seem to hear in heavy rotation are The Carpenters, Michael W. Smith, and Burl Ives. :roll: Has anyone heard any of John's Christmas songs on the radio...
