For John Slick
Hey John, if you're still out there, can you give us any insight to the procedure for recording the Petra backing vocals? Thanks Mr. Slick for taking the time, we really appreciate it!

Re: For John Slick
What I was really wanting to know was, when we hear backing vocals are we hearing 3-4 guys, or Greg being multi-tracked? I know Mark sang lead for half of "Disciple", but I wonder about the rest...I have always thought the backing vocals on NSD, MPTY and NOTW were very strong, not like the hyper processed Multi-tracking of John Elefante's voice on later recordings...

Re: For John Slick
John will chime in maybe, but from what everyone said, Volz did the majority of the backing vocals. It wasn't until Schlitt era that the other guys were included on a regular basis, including John E.

Re: For John Slick
Wow, I would have thought it was the other way around, only instead of John Schlitt doing the multi-track BGV's it was John E. On the E Bros. recordings, his voice in the bgv's is about all I can hear! Listen to anything from Vinyl Confessions or Drastic Measures, the bgv's sound exactly the same....oh well....

Re: For John Slick
I've often wondered about the inspiration for "Disciple" being a duet. Did Bob originally write it as a duet? If so, why was Mark Kelly chosen? (I believe I heard on the Classic Petra documentary DVD that Mark was once the lead vocalist for a band prior to joining Petra.) Finally, why didn't Petra ever attempt another duet after this? I'm hoping John Slick can chime in to shed some light.
