In the final segment of the UpClose & Personal conversation with multi-Grammy and multi-Dove Award winning vocalist, John Schlitt, we dig into the Petra years. From his arrival as Petra's new vocalist and working with power producers, John and Dino Elefante, John peels the curtain back and and gives us unfettered access to what went on behind the scenes. We touch on some of Petra's biggest albums like, Back to the Street, This Means War, Petra Praise, and Beyond Belief. John shares with us what the last days of Petra were like and what lead up to retirement of the greatest Christian Rock band of all-time.
We end our conversation talking about John's great solo career and play a cut from his latest solo album, "Go." With Petra's 50th Anniversary in full swing, we dig into that and what lies ahead.
A BIG thank you to John for being so generous with his time and for sharing a word of encouragement for a friend and fellow Petra fan, Thor Lundberg, who is battling ALS.
This episode is dedicated to my friend and brother, Thor Lundberg, who loves Petra.
