Mullets ahoy on the sleeve! But once past that fashion travesty, we’re into a fine collection of classics from one of the most important and enduring American light rock combos(!). Raised on a diet of Stax/Volt classics in their hometown of Memphis, Eddie & Dana were later inspired by Larry Norman, although their first break was thanks to Pat Boone’s Lamb & Lion label. CCM staples like albums ‘This Time Thru’, ‘Straight On’ and ‘Commander Sozo…’ and the infamous track “Six Six Six” – whose video was banned from the then-new MTV in 1984, are just a few reasons why this band are so important to the CCM canon, and on this remastered 15 song collection you can now relive the memories, or make a first-time discovery and see where it all originated.
