Twenty Twenty Self-Titled Album 1985

Twenty Twenty was a synthesizer-led stadium rock band from Louisiana that seemed to emulate such art-rockers as Styx and Kansas. The Group's debut album was produced by Billy Smiley of White Heart. The Song "You Are So True" is a martial anthem with it's repetitive chorus addressed to Jesus: "You are so true / I said that, you are so true / I know that, you are so true." Another track, "You Can Know Them All," is commercially melodic and invites the listen to get to know the entire Trinity: "Three-In-One are living today / and you can know them all." Twenty Twenty's lead singer, Ron Collins, told CCM in 1985 that the group's focus was on ministry to church youth: "Often at our concerts, we try to reach the young person who goes to church but isn't really there. They only go because they were brought up in church or their parents made them go." this was written by Mark Allen Powell page 968 in  his book The Encyclopedia of Contemporary Christian Music. Please enjoy this album and let me know what you think Thank you

20/20 Blind Never Far 1994

This is A very hard to find CD and pretty rocking if you ask me This Coming from Encyclopedia Of Contemporary Christian Music By Mark Allen Powell on page 968, The Christian group called 20/20 Blind (not to be confused with Twenty Twenty) was a hard rock band from Houston. The group played together for some three-and-a-half years before signing with Intrasound. Around the same time as their album release, three members (Alkire, Laurents, and McNeely) were involved in a serious traffic accident, sustaining long term injuries when their van was hit by a drunk driver. The group told the story of the accident and of theor recovery in HM, including the opportunity they had to offer forgiveness to the man responsible for the accident when they met him in court. Musically, 20/20 Blind had a sound influenced by groups like King's X and Queensryche, with an emphasis on melody and competent musicianship. "Do I?" is a heavy pop song that deals with the issue of sexual temptation. "Only Hope" exemplifies the band's straightforward evangelical approach to lyrics: "When the  storm is all around / And you think you're  going to drown / You know your only hope is in Jesus." Please enjoy and tell me what you think.
