Captured in Time and Space - 1985 - Star Song

*** BEAT THE SYSTEM LIVE TOUR ALBUM ***

This was Petra's only Live Album to this date until the Farewell album. This album had a huge collection of Petra Songs (most of them being songs from 1981-84). It is also Available on VHS and now DVD. This album was the last one with Greg X. Volz as the lead singer. After this tour, he would move on and pursue a solo career. This album featured spot on performances by the band and all of them except Louie got a few words in between songs. This album also features a tape version which has an extra song "The Great I Am". It was probably cut off the CD version because of space. But overall, this albums a five star rating! I saw the video and it is awesome!!! You should see Bob play the guitar and John play the keyboards. Greg Volz is TOTALLY into it!!! GET IT ANY WAY YOU CAN!!!

RECOMMEND TO: People who like Hard Rock and 80's Techno-Rock.
