This follow-up to 1980’s The Sky Is Falling was a much more refined studio approach. Randy recruited a lot of top CCM artists to help out. Producer Terry Taylor (of Daniel Amos) recruited his entire band to play on the album along with, Tom Howard, another Larry Norman and Solid Rock Records protege. The result is a tight band performing Randy’s songs in the studio, giving a much more polished sound than we were used to getting from him up to this point. The song “Die Young” is an example of Randy’s cynical but honest approach, calling out the typical Western lifestyle centered around short-term thinking. His combination of humor and truth-telling was present throughout his career. “Christine” is one of Randy’s reaches out to a lonely and desperate person. It has a significant parallel to the song Christmas at Denny’s, which we get many years later on the Return To Paradise album. This album established Randy’s ability to move beyond performing as a singer-songwriter.
