Appreciate the mention about Vision and thought I’d give just a little more info if you’d like. We had one independant regional release.. self titled..”Vision” ..with Leon ,Billy, and Keith Holmes (playing some great flute).The second album was a result of our recording contract with “Heartland Records” a subsidiary of “Full Sail Recording” in Orlando..Jon Phelps/Gary Jones.. That record(again self titled”Vision”) was pretty successful for us and because of that success landed us a spot on The Dove Awards as one of the headline groups along w/Mylon LeFevre/Driscoll/Russ Taff/Sandi Patti and Denise Williams (that evening). Thanks..Rocco
