Leslie Phillips - The Turning CD

AVAILABLE NOW:  Leslie Phillips (Sam Phillips) - The Turning - CD (1987)

ONLY: $5.99 




The Turning is the title of the fourth album by Leslie Phillips (later re-released in 1997 under the name of Sam Phillips), originally released in 1987 on Myrrh Records.
This album marks the first time that Phillips worked with producer T Bone Burnett. The two would marry not long after the release of this album and Burnett would go on to produce more albums for the singer. The Turning stands out as a turning point in Phillips' career as a singer and songwriter; on one side, the cheerful, upbeat pop-rock albums that she recorded in the early 1980s, and, on the other, the quirky 60's music influenced rock and folk albums, with a much darker and more poetic tone lyrically. Most critics would agree that Phillips' songwriting abilities grew by leaps and bounds beginning with The Turning. Others might even say that this album was a pinnacle that has yet to be topped by the artist.

This album was listed at #8 in the book CCM Presents: The 100 Greatest Albums in Christian Music (Harvest House Publishers, 2001) - Read More: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Turning

Track Listing: All songs written by Sam Phillips, except where noted.

1. "River of Love" (Phillips/Burnett)
2."Love Is Not Lost"
3. "The Turning"
4. "Libera Me" (Burnett)
5. "Carry You"
6. "Beating Heart"
7. "Expectations"
8. "Down"
9. "Answers Don't Come Easy"
10. "God Is Watching You" (Burnett)

The Prayer Chain - Christian Alternative Rock Band

The Prayer Chain was a 1990s Christian alternative rock band. The band has been called "the epitome of the Christian underground". The Prayer Chain was known for producing moody, angst-ridden music which was, in turn, the result of creative differences within the band and with their record label.

 Their first album, released independently, was recorded with Steve Hindalong at Neverland Studios and was entitled The Neverland Sessions. After signing to Reunion Records they put out The Whirlpool EP and started touring, while focusing on their first LP Shawl released in 1993. After extensive national and international shows they started working on their final album, Mercury, which was released in 1995. Engineer Chris Colbert wrote, "you can hear the band break up on the record, you can see them extend a warm and heartfelt middle finger to the industry". Some releases which included rare recordings followed. The band has since done a reunion show in Chicago in 1998, the Gene Eugene tribute show in 2000, some local California shows and 2003 reunion shows at Cornerstone Festival and the Flevo Festival in the Netherlands.

 The band has released some of their work & rarities on the Bandcamp website. Most notably, they released the original version of their album Mercury titled Humb, ending years of speculation between fans regarding the original album. The original version was sent to Reunion Records in 1994 and the band were subsequently told to go back into the studio to write more songs, "something they could sell". The most evident differences between Mercury and Humb are the absence of "Sky High" on Humb, which along with "Friend or Foe" was written after the record label rejected the original version of the album, and the inclusion of "Chalk", "Antarctica" and "Loverboy" on Humb, all which eventually appeared on Antarctica. Humb also had a different track order. The somewhat different mixing on the original album is considered to be darker.
