I was a Bryan Duncan super freak back in the day. I was just a little kid but he was the one guy I listened to the most out of my little collection of Christian music. I must have made my mom and dad listen to his albums a million times. I remember seeing him at the football field of Ontario Christian High (I think twice) after Sweet Comfort disbanded but before his first solo album. I then saw him at my local church when he was touring for the Holy Rollin' release, where I got his autograph on our church bulletin! Then again, my parents surprised me by taking me to his Strong Medicine tour, whereafter, I wore a Strong Medicine shirt until it wore out. I actually think I still have it in a keepsake box somewhere.

As far as these albums go, this is where it all began. Great fun music, kind of it's own - definitely 80's - style. I was happy to find this CD. It's funny that I remember all the words to these songs, which I hadn't heard in probably fifteen years. My dad had Have Yourself Committed on vinyl! LOL. I had Holy Rollin' on cassette. Standouts for me on Have Yourself Committed include: Darkness is Falling, Maybe This Time, Child's Love, Last Graduation and Sweep Me Away - basically the whole album. On Holy Rollin' I like Remember Me and Everlasting Love. To sum up, if you're a Bryan D fan, this is a must have.

On a side note, I recommend picking up Sweet Comfort's Breaking the Ice album and also Bryan D's third album, Whistlin' in the Dark, my personal favorite.

Have Yourself Committed is one of my favorite albums of all time. I wore out my cassette tape years ago, so I was very excited to find it had been released on CD. What a bonus to be combined with Holy Rollin! These two albums are a great pick-me-up if you're every feeling blue. They'll get you hopping.
