EDITORIAL REVIEWS
The lyrical depth, the recording quality and the searing riffs stand out on Volume One. These are elite songs dripping in passion and vitality that hasn’t lost any of its charm since 1978! “High Tide,” “Mr. Ego,” “Neutral,” etc. alone explain how this is the pivotal album that pierced through the hearts of fans across the globe which gave the band a foundation that birthed many years of international touring. Jerusalem was the real deal, and anyone who listened to this album knew it. Unfortunately, the Jerusalem debut release never got a proper CD reissue in English until now. With several compilations having songs from the album, this Retroactive Records 40th Anniversary Edition is the first time the album has been reissued on CD in English featuring all the original songs. This Rob Colwell (Bombworks Sound) Legends Remastered version adds so much warmth, depth, and sonic clarity to perfection. Retroactive Records has packaged this gem in a jewel case with a 12-page insert featuring band pics and lyrics. Great pains were made to make sure this classic was given the full reissue treatment, knowing Jerusalem fans have waited 40 years for a propper CD reissue! In 2015, Classic Christian Rock Zine voted this album the #9 best Christian rock debut album of all time!
