Album Of The Day: Flap Your Wings by The Choir
Released on this day 25 years ago, this is the 9th studio album from alternative rock band The Choir, and the first release from this band that I was exposed to, as I bought this CD a few years later at some sort of store while music shopping. It's not music I listen to often, but "Mercy Lives Here" is very beautiful and "Hey Gene" finds the band grappling with their close friend Gene Eugene dying so unexpectedly. And though this recording of "Beautiful Scandalous Night" is maybe not as beloved as other versions on more worship-focused albums, but it's the band's own version. The lyrics of some of these rock songs also seem to be about personal joys and struggles with relationships and starting families as well. It's maybe not The Choir's most beloved album, but it's a good album and worthy of a listen, I think.
