Geoff Moore - Bread Of Life

This is Track #7 from the 1984 Geoff Moore album "Where Are The Other Nine?"

Geoff had success in the early 80's writing songs for CCM artist Steven Curtis Chapman. He started writing after meeting Michael W. Smith in the clothing store where Moore worked. At least that's what Wikipedia says. In 1984 he signed a record deal with Power Discs and this album is the result. I have to admit I was a bit surprised at how mellow this album is. It's not really the Geoff Moore I was more familiar with. I was wondering if this was because of the producer Billy Smiley (White Heart) and perhaps it was as at this point as Bill had mainly produced "The New Gaither Vocal Band" albums. It was also likely a product of the times as even in 1984 record companies were still terrified of Rock & Roll to spite it's success. This is a pretty good album though at times I feel like I'm listening to an Imperials album with different vocals. The album was successful and even garnered a chart single, the title track made it to #11.

In an effort to post your requests we have been paying for albums out of our own pockets both physical and digital but the costs have become a bit prohibitive. If can help us out by participating in a little crowd funding you can get some special perks.

This is so good, thanks for posting! Any other recommendations that have the same vibe?

I like this version better than the imperials version for some reason not sure .
