It takes many hours in the studio to get vocals just perfect for the recording of a particular song. Here, we show you some video clips of us working on “Thanks To Calvary And Amazing Grace.” You won’t hear the whole song, just some parts we are working on. This is where we perfect and learn the song’s vocal arrangements. It is a tedious process but it makes for a great recording and prepares us to “get it right” for actual performances. Singing the song correctly has to become “second nature” for us so when we are singing for you in concert, we can focus on the Spirit rather than the details of singing.

Vote For Your Favorite Photos!
July 15, 2008 – 11:27 am
Hey, here’s one we really want you to jump into. We have some of the photos from our photo shoot and we are starting to work on the CD cover. You can see that we have Group Photos, Lauren Photos, Debra Photos, and Roger Photos. We think we want to use the individual shots for the cover and maybe a group shot somewhere else in the insert. You can comment on that idea. What we want you to do is pick your favorite photo from each set. We have way too many photos (over 300) to show them all here but your choices will give us an idea of the types you like. Read More
Comfort Me (song #8)
July 11, 2008 – 2:06 pm
Thanks to all of you who gave us title suggestions. We will be studying them and will let you know what we decide. Now, here we go with our eighth song, Comfort Me! Let us know what you think. Does the addition of this song give you any more title ideas? If so, you can jump back to the CONTEST post and add new ideas.
Contest: Name Our CD; Get Your Name in the Insert!
July 8, 2008 – 11:46 am
There are more songs coming, but you’ve heard most of the songs now and we are asking you to help us name the album. Send us your idea for a GREAT title and tell us why you think it’s a good one. We’ll add it to the ideas we already have. We are making this recording for YOU and we sincerely want you involved in helping choose the name of it. We are looking for a title that finds a common theme from all or most of the songs. (We would prefer to NOT use a song title as the album title.) If we choose your idea, we’ll give you credit by printing your name in the CD insert. And feel free to submit more than one idea if you like. You have until noon Friday (EDT) to get your ideas in the contest. Read More
