[Tell It Right]

I still listen to a lot of Russ Taff, Petra, Mylon, Bloodgood, Barren Cross, White Heart, Whitecross, and David and the Giants.

I thought Stryper was okay back in the 1980's, not worth wearing out for decades like I have a lot of other bands from my teenage years. But Stryper came out of retirement a decade or so ago and put out some stuff I really like. Check out their Reborn, Passion, Jesus Is Alright (a metal redo of the classic), When Did I See You Cry, No More Hell to Pay, and especially Yaweh. Warning: could cause irresistible cranking of the volume.

Russ Taff yes, and some others. I was more of a Petra fan but I think my brother was into Stryper. I kind of drifted away from some of these when I no longer had a cassette player - ha! Did you listen to any Steve Taylor?

I prefer Rez Band if I want loud.

I liked Margaret Becker's music back in the day. It was only many years later I found out she was a lifelong Roman Catholic and not Evangelical.

Best of Contemporary/Praise mix was 2nd Chapter of Acts, they did a concept album of The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe (The Roar of Love) back in the late 70s. Great backstory to the band.
