Album Of The Day: Long Line Of Leavers by Caedmon's Call

Album Art of Caedmon's Call's Long Line Of Leavers album - A color photo of a black metal bench at the bottom on a cobblestone walkway. Behind it, a white painted wall takes up most of the space of the photo. On the left side in the center, in dark grey is printed the band's name, and in a reddish-orange under it is the album title in lowercase.

Released on this day 25 years ago, this is the fourth studio album from Caedmon's Call and one of their best albums. This folk-rock band was gaining popularity in the mid-to-late '90s. By the time this album was released, they were one of the biggest bands in Christian music and also had some cred in the college rock scene too. As was their formula, the seven-member band mixed songwriters, lead vocals, and more between songs to keep each song sounding fresh. Everyone pitched in on music and percussion, giving each song a full band sound even live. "Prepare Ye The Way" brought an old '70s song from John Michael Talbot to a new generation. Other favorites are "Dance", "Love Is Different", "The Only One" and "Piece Of Glass". Finally "Ballad Of San Francisco" is a fun, rollickin' closer to a quality album from a band in their prime.
